[QUOTE]Thirty-two bodies have been found in several locations in Mexico's eastern port city of Veracruz, the navy says.
The discovery comes two weeks after 35 bodies were dumped in broad daylight on a busy road on the city outskirts.
The Mexican government has announced the deployment of extra security forces in the state, as gangs wage an escalating war over drug trafficking.
Some 40,000 people are estimated to have been killed since the army was sent in to combat drug gangs in 2006.
A statement from the navy said the 32 bodies were found in three houses in Veracruz as the military carried out its new Safe Veracruz campaign against the drug cartels.
Twenty of the bodies were in one house in a residential neighbourhood, the navy said.
A group calling itself the Zeta Killers has said it had killed the 35 people whose bodies were left in two lorries at an underpass on a busy road in Boca del Rio in Veracruz state.
The group said it was targeting one of Mexico's most notorious drug cartels, which has been locked in an escalating war with the Gulf cartel.
Police have said that most of the dead found in Boca del Rio on 20 September had criminal records.
Earlier this week, officials said 18 police officers had been arrested on suspicion of working with the Zetas.[/QUOTE]

Where's the Assassin faction when you need one.
How bout we post news of Mexico when they don't find bodies?
Everyday I come into Sensationalist Headlines I find a thread with bodies found somewhere in Mexico. Jesus what a shithole that place has become now.
Where do the cartels hold these bodies?? In their homes?

Best of luck with that, practically ALL of the news about Mexico is about this whole mess.

Maybe because it's the [I]sensationalist[/I] headlines? I mean what do you think someone's going to post good things about Mexico or the world in general?
I genuinely did not know that Mexico has a navy.

For some reason, I feel an implication that the criminal records weren't very... exstensive.
I don't really feel okay with this, if these "Zeta Killers" (real creative name by the way guys) are just, well, killing Zetas. I'm not sure why, I just feel this isn't a good thing at all.

Jesus fuck, even in the article itself they have single sentences that themselves could have been articles.
