I don't want to act like I am in the know or have firsthand info on this,
however from what I can tell, this story had its' origins in Jeff Schwilk. Schwilk has a history of exaggeration, fabrication, and sensationalism. Remember the 100K plus defamation suit he lost. It's a little difficult to lose a defamation suit when the claims are truthful. Also like to point out his enemies list on his SDMM website. It's getting bigger all the time, and it reads more like it was written by a drunken reporter from the National Enquirer. I'd consider the source first. Not sayin' that this type of scenario isn't possible or likely; Just reminding everyone to keep their feet on the ground, and not to end up getting labeled as a chicken little |

I thought so too. Until I heard from a couple of Laredoans. Schwilk didn't come up with this story first. It was the San Diego Examiner who first broke the story.

I was able to dig up a bit more.
The zetas have had a ranch in Texas for quite awhile. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/6432122.html This is from the Houston Chronicle and confirmed by the FBI. Evidently, the ranches seized are contiguous to this ranch. The FBI is advising law enforcement officers across the country that a Texas cell of Los Zetas — an increasingly powerful arm of the Mexican Gulf Cartel drug trafficking syndicate — has acquired a secluded ranch where it trains its members to “neutralize” competitors in the United States. In order to ensure its share of the lucrative illegal drug trade, the cartel’s members reportedly are operating north of the border to collect debts and spy on competitors. They have also protected cocaine and heroin shipments that were bound for Houston, where they were repackaged and shipped on to Alabama, Delaware, Georgia and Michigan, according to the FBI. The information, which was disseminated Monday to state, local and federal agencies, does not provide specifics, such as the location of the ranch, but includes a notation that the information came from reliable FBI contacts. |

Hoax or real?
If you were in Laredo PD and you wanted to leak information would you do it to a media source who could legally protect your ID or to a "Minuteman" In San Diego?

From what I have heard from those IN Laredo, Laredo PD isn't entering into it. This is Border Patrol and County Sheriff since the area in question isn't within the City of Laredo.
In any case, the original source was the San Diego Examiner so instead of a San Diego Minuteman, it was a San Diego reporter. |

As I thought. The zetas or associates have been there a while.

Yes. They've been there awhile. But seizing two ranches is expanding it quite a bit. If that's true.
It shouldn't be shocking that our government is protecting cartels. We have Hama and Hezbollah training camps here too. |

I have an answer.
Zeta snipers have set up a couple of nests on ranchland near the border. They haven't seized the ranches. They just can't be dislodged from these nests. They are protecting drug and human smugglers crossing that land. |
