Collateral Damage: The troubled state of Tamaulipas: 'The narcos rule our lives'

An over-view by the LA Times of recent events - and the paper's coverage of them - in the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico.

The troubled state of Tamaulipas: 'The narcos rule our lives' | Los Angeles Times: "Tamaulipas, a state in Mexico's northeast across from Texas, is currently the site of some of the most severe clashes in Mexico's drug war. Fierce fighting between drug gangs and the military in the streets of several cities has been reported, and at least one town emptied out in response to the violence, its residents becoming 'refugees' in their own country."
