MONTERREY, Mexico --This amazing photo was taken today as an American drunken driver plowed into a bicycle race killing one and sending more than a score to the hospital. The arrested drive is believed to be 28 year-old Juan Campos, an American citizen of Brownsville Texas. I suspect Mexican justice will be swift, sure and punitive in this case.
It is news when an American kills on of there. But its all too common that they kill thousands of Americans every year.
