June 23, 1948, Romulo Carballo shot me in the leg for no other reason than I was courting his daughter Carolina who was always flirting with me. My leg wouldn’t heal, and I prayed the Virgin of Zapopan so I wouldn’t be left lame. She worked the miracle, and I was cured.

Sacramento Villareal gives thanks because he managed to arrive to the USA. Rio Bravo was very wide and we almost drown in getting to the American dream. Although the crazy gringo Donald Trump is a reptilian and a Ku Klux Klan member, is a fucking fat racist, his country is Mexican territory.
