I think the key point is:
"The Army has long required Lake City’s operators to ensure the plant can produce up to 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition a year. In exchange, the contractors running the facility have been allowed to use its excess production capacity to make ammunition for sale to foreign governments, law enforcement agencies and the general public. The Army says that the arrangement saves taxpayers around $50 million a year."
It is more than likely the Mexican government bought the ammo which was then reallocated to the cartels by theft/graft.
Which bring to mind those bottles of Napoleon era champagne found preserved under pressure in a ship wreck. Any info on how those turned out or was the one opened a palatable vinegar?
To add to this TX and the SW USA are currently (been 20 years now) experiencing an extended drought. Water levels are at an all time low; many lakes are almost dry; and even the aquifers are getting a bit frumpy. As sidewndr46 said, ain't no water to pump.

Isn't that the point of this, to gather them together and let them die in a drug addled slavery. Wasn't this the big surprise end of spoilers A Scanner Darkly or reminicent of "The Planet of Sin" in one of Heinlein's stories? All they guy needs is some South American mind control drug and he can then change his name to "Jim Jones".
I wouldn't say Rolls-Royce, more like Lexus. Fuddruckers would be closer to Rolls quality as they actually allow for something other than well-done, preformed, meat pucks.
Welcome the media problem in the USA. How many riots have we had for the exact same reasons you describe. Wag the Dog; Bread & Circus; etc. are alive & well.
Fruit are scary! The brits used to give lessons (1970's) on defending yourself against a variety of fruit attacks, here is a clip (https://youtu.be/MlroOdP8p2Y)
Why bring a gun to "peaceful" protest? To protect you from the other protesters? To protect you from the cops? Seems like poor thinking on the part of the dead guy no matter which option...unless the aim was a publicity stunt.
I worked for Origin at the time as a UO Admin using the handle GM Snarf, we had a control console on our standard installs which allowed us to toggle "god mode", "smite", cast spell, create item, create gold, summon monster, etc. If you forgot to toggle god mode after logging into your avatar stupid things would happen and the players would screen shot it to spread the fun. I remember forgetting to toggle it before responding to a customer call and getting insta-killed by a dragon.
I'll second your opinion, the amount of BS powerpoint fud we now have to go through because of Snowden et al is fraud waste & abuse of the highest level. The fact that he & Manning are so revered for their crimes is astounding.
There was a push for something like that and it would have been great...it fell afoul of NIMBY and Toll road haters.

Everyone in Austin hated SH-45 & 130 when they were built, they were practically empty for a few years to my delight as I could travel the entirety of Austin in a fraction of the normal time even during rush hours. After MOPAC was added residents began to see the light and the tollways are now congested. Many are regretting their opposition to Perry's lost/last road project but, that train has left the station unless Elon can get the Boring project going or Virgin is able to implement their version of Hyperloop. Hell, I'd have settled for elevated wire gondolas over the roads, works well enough for Australia.
