“A double slaying east of Colorado Springs on Thursday was the result of a gang-related clash over a stolen iPod, the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office said,” Lance Benzel reports for The Colorado Springs Gazette.
“The suspect, 19-year-old Juan Vasquez, was arrested early Friday in the shooting deaths of two male high school students at a park in the Cimarron Hills area, sheriff’s spokeswoman Lt. Lari Sevene said,” Benzel reports.
“The victims were identified as 18-year-old Uriel Rascon and 17-year-old Luis Burciaga. Rascon attended Sierra High School, and Burciaga went to The New Horizons School, an alternative high school,” Benzel reports.
“Vasquez is being held in the El Paso County jail on an immigration hold placed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, jail records show,” Benzel reports.
“Autopsies determined that Rascon and Burciaga each died of a gunshot wound in the chest,” Benzel reports.
“Sevene said Vasquez and the two victims were members of rival gangs,” Benzel reports. “They met in the Cimarron Eastridge Park off Constitution Avenue, Sevene said, in what apparently was a brawl set off by a fight involving Sand Creek High School students the day earlier over an iPod music player.”

Or oil, religion, a country or anything else their government decides is worth more than their lives…
(no kidding – I mean it)
Deport ALL illegal immigrants.
Ah, shit. I live east of colorado springs, and know atleast 5 mexican highschool students named Juan (althouth I dont know their last name)
You’d never see this happen over a Zune. Okay, maybe:
“Yuck, a Zune. You take it.”
“I don’t that piece of sh*t. You take it.”
“No, you take it!”
“You take it!”
“Die, m*****f****r!!”

@ meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Your point being?
I live in Texas, and I know of at least 5 W.A.S.P students named John.
Or that German CEO whatever who threw himself in front of a train due to loss of money. Money is not life. Money is not worth dying over!
Can we all get…along, here…
I came legally, deport all illegals and their children, born here or not.
The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution is one of the post-Civil War Reconstruction Amendments, first intended to secure the rights of former slaves.
Not to give citizenship to illegal alien kids.
“Deport ALL illegal immigrants.”
That’s what Native Americans have been saying for years.
Anita: You have your big important council. The council,
[kiss]
Anita: or me.
[kiss]
Bernardo: First one,
[kiss]
Bernardo: then the other.
[Tries to kiss her, she pulls away]
Anita: Ah, I’m an American girl now, I don’t wait.
Bernardo: Ah, back home women know their place.
Anita: Back home little boys don’t have war councils.
Bernardo: Ah, but they do here. You want me to be an American, don’t you?
Maria: All of you! You all killed him! And my brother, and Riff. Not with bullets, or guns, with hate. Well now I can kill, too, because now I have hate!
The Girls: [singing] I like to be in America, OK by me in America, everything free in America…
Bernardo: [singing] For a small fee in America!

what a really stupid thing to say
Why the hell are we reading this stuff here?
Let’s let the editor know that this is not what we want to see on this site.
Somehow I will have to believe these people were headed to a violent death, with or without an iPod in the works, in U.S.A. or back at Mexico
I will agree with DanielM
“what a really stupid thing to say”
Yes, you are.
“Deport ALL illegal immigrants.”

He meant that about Europeans who came here “illegally” and took over their country.
He meant that about Europeans who came here “illegally” and took over their country.
So, how is a country legally taken over?
Deport ALL illegal immigrants
Shooting them would be cheaper
Would have been much more interesting if they fought over a Zune…
I was talking about entering “illegally” – not taking over “illegally.”
Who ever wins a conquest sets the rules. That’s history.
wow, a lot of great discussion here related to Apple….
“… gangs brawled over Apple iPod”
