Man that is some crazy stuff. But there are tons of Mexicans in Oklahoma. They are everywhere. No telling how many are part of the cartels. I’ve seen them in towns I would have never thought I would see them in.

Sinaloa is not the ones you have to worry about, it’s the Jalisco new generation (JNG) cartel. They are the ruthless ones. they hurt or kill to make a point. Sinaloa did not do that. They are all over the place. Ardmore, Ada, Shawnee, Okc. I see them all the time. They wear their colors and badges.

Very few Mexicans here are cartel members.. Most are just as honest as the folks on here. But every group of people will have a few bad apples that give them all a bad rap.

Towns in Oklahoma you never thought you would see a Mexican? What towns would that be? How do you tell them from most of the Indians you see in Oklahoma? I would never be surprised to see a Mexican or an Indian at any town anywhere in Oklahoma. So were are you surprised to see them in?

To the point about Mexicans in Oklahoma, they’ve been coming to work here steadily beginning in the late-1800s to early-1900s. They are a significant part of our Oklahoma history.

In fact they are. They are willing to do the jobs most will not do. I know ALOT of Mexicans. Most consider half a day 8 hours, full day 16 hours. most have 2-3 jobs.
