People collecting gasoline from a damaged pipeline in Mexico can be seen running away on fire after the gas is ignited.

At least 65 were killed with dozens more injured.

Cartels are stealing gas from the pipeline and selling it on black market.. They often times make poor quality fittings when tapping into the pipeline resulting in looting as seen here. Yes there may have been a fracture in the pipeline here, but Mexico has the cartels making bank on this

All those screaming Class Alpha fires running from the blast

Horrible, there is too much poverty in this world.

[Tumama]

I mean the town literally has the name Primitive in it.

Is the fuel crisis that bad on Mexico that families make their way to steal it? I mean water, sure. Food I can understand it... but gasoline?

The Backstory about this:

Mexican Left President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, is campaigning against corruption and changing the whole country for the benefit of the poor. So he went an ordered the military to seize the pipelines and regulate production and distribution, this uncovered a serious corruption problem in all levels of government, as gasoline was being sold and controlled by thieves, corrupt authorities and politicians of the right.

Media coverage is controlled by his opponent's so news began "alerting" the population that the president was transforming the country into Venezuela. So everyone was incited to go an get as much gasoline they could get because speculation was that there was not enough. (this is a lie).

This created long lines at gasoline stations, and obviously a shortage of the product as the demand grew over. So OBVIOUSLY, Huiachicoleros went to steal more to sell it at a bigger price as it was told that there was no more gasoline.

The president has approval by the public of %60. This means the people are quiet happy with his ruling. But as I said, the news trashes his image and seek to cause worry, distrust, and problems by insisting that he is crazy or a totalitarian.

The poor are the most affected by this as they are heavily influenced by the media, like Televisa and Tv. Azteca. That's why those ignorants were burned. By the way, those pictures are being shared by small and independent news outlets, as you might know, The official media has a ban on sharing gore pictures since the war on drugs because hundreds of people were dying daily.

The death toll has raised to 67 and 76 hurt.

[RiversEdge]

that's quite a party.

Besides the gasoline, I smell a huge lawsuit.

That looks a lot like when I spray RAID bug killer on ants & roaches and they attempt to flee.
