A Mennonite Marcos?

A community of Mexican Mennonites, best known to their compatriots for selling cookies at busy intersections, has "rebelled", angered by the state's unwillingness or inability to investigate the kidnapping of a member of their community. I placed the verb in the previous sentence in quotation marks because the article makes it sound as the revolt amounted to little more than a protest at the local city hall, but words deriving from "rebel" appeared throughout.
