The Mexican Mormon War. Vice full video

Yesterday when the news hit about the 9 Americans killed in Mexico, it all felt eerily familiar. It turns out this video came out in 2012, it is a fascinating look into the inner workings of both sides. The Lebaron family is featured heavily in this documentary.
Trump and the right wing machine are trying to paint this about immigrants, that that couldn't be further from the truth.
