He was assassinated in front of his pregnant wife and children as he was closing the door on his business. All of is brothers and sisters are successful also. Most of them are being extorted also. You are right. If you work hard and become even a little successful someone in government and the criminals will want some of it. Everyone knows here they are one and the same. Once you are targeted you have no hope here. You cannot fight the police, soldiers and the government. You will loose every time.

If you do the same in Mexico it will get you killed or kidnapped. Your business seized, your home seized and your land seized. All because the government or Cartel wants it. If you refuse to pay your "tax" to the cartel you will no longer own what's yours. I know several families who now live in the US because they lost everything they owned in Mexico to the local cartel. Luckily for each family they were given amesty from US because they would be killed if they returned to Mexico. In one case a shop owner refused to pay to the Sinaloa cartel they in turn killed her oldest son, made her sign over the property then dropped her off at the border. They told her if came back they would kill her just like her son. Even if she returned to visit family she would be killed on the spot. Hey it is what is and I know there are some of you who no matter what will always defend Mexico. That's great because that is your right but don't be blind to the truth.IAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-89484741728309996082014-10-29T08:48:30.978-06:002014-10-29T08:48:30.978-06:00You are right, Mexico is FUCKED. I am not Mexican...You are right, Mexico is FUCKED. I am not Mexican, and I don't live in Mexico, but I am a prolific reader, and I have followed Borderland Beat for five or six years. Sadly, what I see as an observer is that Mexican culture is polluted. Many Mexicans have no self respect, and then of course no respect for anyone else. Mexicans seem to value life the least of all the western countries, the way life is valued is on par with terrible places in the eastern world. A Mexican even said to me as I pointed out he looked Mexican, "Nobody wants to be Mexican!" Mexico has to burn first to purify; it is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. In any organizational failure it is ALWAYS a failure of leadership first, and this is the case in Mexico. Dating one hundred years, the super rich do not care whatsoever about ordinary Mexicans, and they have done either the absolute least or nothing to advance Mexico as a whole. Instead what they have done is weaken and corrupt everything in their path to becoming wealthier. And it didn't help that rural Mexicans were having 10 babies up until just a few years ago, and this when they didn't make $100 a month and couldn't feed themselves. The super rich have ordinary Mexicans right where they want them, as de facto slaves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-38201443713028738522014-10-29T03:32:13.713-06:002014-10-29T03:32:13.713-06:00Damn straight!

I watch helplessly from where I sit at what is happening to Mexico and I cry. I hate feeling this helpless. I feel the same way about my other country Venezuela. May God help them make the change necessary to bring Latin America back from the brink. Chavez is dead, but Maduro is at the wheel. May he prevail, and Mexico needs to purge itself of the corruption that threatens it now. I pray for my Mexican friends here who are with us and safe for the time being. I don't know how long it will be before this chaos spreads everywhere. God help us all. We must unite to bring an end to these madmen, the bankers, the gun runners, the human traffickers, the criminal syndicates running this planet. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!

I hope I don't trash those comments on that basis alone.<br /><br />I post garbage, even though it pisses me off.

Government employees don't do anything until the corporations buy them and tell them what to do. Government employees don't buy themselves; they don't have enough money. The USA has the best government money can buy and it doesn't buy itself. The oil companies, the media companies, the finance companies, the jillionaires who just want more. All of this is just like Mexico: los pobres y los ricos. The way things are going, they will soon both be the same.<br /><br />Do you think you're part of the rich? Ha! You'll find out. If you've got something they want, they'll just take it--including your land, your life, your family. What will you do? Nada. That's the way it works in Mexico. That's the way it will work here and is well on the way already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
