  5. My sons goes to school in Chihuahua. If you have one failing grade in one subject, just one time, you are thrown out of public high school even if the your other subject grades are higher. You are not permitted to re-enter the public school system once removed.

    The uniforms, books and other monies needed are more than most people can afford. Especially for those parents that make incomes of about $80 a week or less. But is is still the best option. If removed you have to go to a private school which is just about impossible to do for the extremely poor. They only except the children with better grades from public middle school to enter into the free public high school. Many do not make it.

    If you are of power and are a government employee your children can be placed into high school before other more deserving children. It is a very corrupt system even in the schools. You have teachers in some areas that have about zero basic knowledge about what they are teaching. The better public schools in the bigger areas have very good teachers most of the time as there is more money to be spent.

    The people in these gangs are probably illiterate and with no formal education. They do not want to work for $80 a week. They are willing to risk their lives and the possibility of going to prison to drive a nice car, have some money and have young uneducated women hanging around them that have nothing to look forward to either.

    There is a never ending flood of these people that are willing to risk their lives that have nothing to really look forward to. The system works against them from the day they were born until the day they die. To live poor in some areas of Mexico is really harsh and difficult. Even more so if you are a good and decent poor person, that has to live among the animals that have gone criminal and will also prey on them. The term dog eat dog is really a fitting term here in Mexico. There are a lot of poor people that are just wonderful. But the ruthless people with high powered weapons can raise havoc on a community and make ones life even harder. What amazes be is how one can lose there basic morals and souls and will do unbelievable and horrendous things to the people and the life they came from.

      Good post,insightful,i said something along similar lines,in the final analysis it really is sad.Mexico could be so much more if wealth were spread around,a vast labor pool,but there are so many things to consider,the insularity,corruption,jingoism?

    4. Thank you for sharing the truth. The world does not realize how unjust the education 'industry' is in MX. Sadly another system corrupted in a 'dog-eat-dog' country, as you say.

      I will always have a place in my heart for the children, who are the biggest victims in all of this.

    5. @April 23, 2016 at 3:47 AM: you know nothing dude! I know India and Pakistan and it is exactly the same as Mexico (probably worse!). What goes on in the slums and how they are ruled is simply pure dog-eat-dog environment.

      The only signficant difference is the prevalence of armament. In India and Paki arms are much more uncommon which keeps the bloodshed down (at least I believe this to be the reason).

      Even though I dont know them personally myself but the slums here in the US are ruled the same. Reality is the same all over the world: if you wanna be a good boy on a bad street you got trouble. Who is gonna defend your mother or sister when the gang banger hazzle them? You alone huh?

  12. If you look inside the SUV in the photo with the guy holding the missile launcher you can tell they took out the back seats and put in a metal stand- probably for that 30mm machine gun. La Linea isn't playing around with the convoys.

    2. The original article is a bit off in some of its weapon descriptions, the machine gun is .30 calibre browning, not a 30mm.

      The missile launcher is in fact a stinger ground to air missile launcher. Designed to shoot down aircraft. In this case, they probably have them to shoot down marina blackhawks.

      The seizure of the Stinger must be a big worry for the Mexican Government and if it isn't, it should be.

    3. I was about to make the correction on the .30 cal as the 30 mm is what the A-10's and Apaches have.

      --honest military that become aware know better than to make waves, their own base commanders will have them executed and disappeared or imprisoned under spurious charges.

    5. From @ 5:20. Fuckin wanabee narco Rielero 80. The battle between CDS and CDJ in Chihuas was always between Chihuahuenses. Your ignorance shows if you think Chapo and his Snatcholas decided to travel all the way from their own state and take over CDJ territory! El Azul once worked for Carrillo Fuentes and switched sides after Fuentes alledgedly passed away. This is how they knew who to and how to hit CDJ. Your fucking "Boy Wonder" Chaputo would never had stood a fraction of a chance against CDJ if this motherfucker el Azul was not a chapulin himself! Don't take my word for it though. Ask any person from Sinaloa from this comment section and they know the truth. Unless they are too pussy to admit even that!

Maybe BB can post the story comming out of the Diario de Juarez today? In this article it shows how this punk ass narco wanted to blow himself up along with his family with a grenade to avoid being captured by the Mexican Feds. They even had audio of what was being said by him at that moment. What a fucking puss!
