Great title. Someone is probably forming a band with this name as I type...
Thank you, LOC for joining flickr. I hope other institutions follow your lead and share their material!

it looks like that one fellow in the upper right is pointing his six-shooter directly at the photographer. But it could be a tortilla....

In looking at the hi-res versions provided at the Persistent URL link above, one of them is indeed pointing his gun at the camera.

It looks like the kid behind the one with the gun is pointing his finger at the camera, pretend-gun style.

By call nr. the photo can be located on the hills south to Ciudad Juarez, around February 3-4, 1911. It could be part of a series that may be named "Rebels in Orozco's Camp" before Juárez was attacked.
The San Francisco Call, issue February 4, 1911 (The Library of Congress, Cronicling America), says: "The Associated Press operator here, who had returned from a visit to Orozco's camp, located 18 kilometers south of Juarez, says that Orozco told him he was waiting for Blanco's arrival tonight before attacking Juarez;"
