el paso is where the money gets laundered and production moves. its the suburbs for the kids and grandkids of made men. they arent gonna shit where they eat.
Look into the history of Barrio Azteca.
Still active inside of Prisons, run like a corporation outside of them.
Bonus El paso history. El paso no longer has true freedom of assembly because of them. If any three suspected gang members are around, that's probable cause.
El paso was the first place in the nation to have a gang injunction like that.
Don't see the cops pulling much of that lately, but they did in the 90s.
And that is why our crime rates dropped to their levels.
People who aren’t from here oftentimes state El Paso is very safe due to the cartel. However, there isn’t any evidence that proves the cartel operates here.
The cartel knows better than to do their dirtier shit in El Paso. It’s not good for business. Plus the city is crawling in law enforcement. Unfortunately this historically bodes terribly for Juarez.
We have a reginal FBI & DEA headquarters in EP, yet it is estimated 75% of all cocaine that is snuggled into usa is done so through el pasos ports of entry.

El pasos main criminal groups that are rarely talked about;
barrio azteca - one of the most violent groups ever. heavily present in the leo and corrections agencys
Typically recruts U.S citizens, main modus operandi is transnational crime, as us citizens they have the freedom to cross borders...a highly desirable trait for them.
Then theres " la linea" which along barrio azteca are the nail+ dirt combo of organized crime in ep/ juarez and a heavily armed enforcement wing if OC.
Both organizations actively recruit from within LEO, corrections officers , cbp....
As an example the " el chapo guzman single citizenship mexican, easily extradited state side and convicted.
Your typical barrio azteca will pray nostly on mexicans down the border / state sid migrants and run back to hide in stateside. Why? Because they know theres no extradition the other way around [ usa to mex]
Then you have te mexican duals who live here and commute to work as members of la linea/ federales in mx and then cross over away from mx where they'll never be found/suspected , but these typically began life as government/federal government officials/dignataries, magistrates in mx , who happen to have salaries in the 10's/ 100's of thousands of dollars higher than your typical non military service civilian...like $40k min on some roles ( civvies with no military bg make about 1000 usd max if there licensed engineer etc.) a farmer probably desnt break over 200 usd a month...
Basically its the mexicans with a federal/gvt background who you dont want comming over as it could be a federale with decades of murders behind him. At the same time you don't want us citizens going down there and aiding cartel massacres and disappear over the rainbow were MXcan authorities will be left clueless and incapable of requesting extradition.
They're in El Paso, but they lie low. As long as you don't go messing with their turf or doing stupid shit like selling drugs they will leave you alone.
The cartel do live in El Paso. You can see the expensive house being bought cash here. But they know better not to bring their violence in El Paso. Once in a while u hear about kidnappings in El Paso. Even the mayor of Juarez lives here instead of Juarez.
The newer season of narcos Mexico talks about the Juarez Cartel - I wonder if they will make new seasons & get into how Calderon swatted the hornets nest
Short answer, no. I’ve lived here for over 20 years and if I have ever encountered cartel guys, I didn’t know it. Whatever activity they may have here, they do a good job of hiding it.
Nah they’re all retired, fat, and beef over children’s baseball in Ascarate these days.

we have ATF, FBI, DEA and obviously customs and CBP here, they'd really find out the hard way if they fucked around and had to find out the hard way.
I'm sure they are operating in EP, but the violence stays in Mexico.

Probably yes.
Residual shit, Yes.
Look for black out escalades in the school drop off lines
You know, they sell black Escalades to anyone with enough money, not just cartel folks.
The windows my friend. Also its a joke. Love the sense of humor though
Glad I didn’t offend you, it was meant as humor.
Ohhh so you downvoted bc you found it funny. Got it
Short answer, no. I’ve lived here for over 20 years and if I have ever encountered cartel guys, I didn’t know it. Whatever activity they may have here, they do a good job of hiding it.
