It amazes me how ignorant my fellow Americans are about Mexico..... Remember Mexico's Drug problem is caused by the American's need for DRUGS in vast quatities. You may want to ask yourselves why do we need to intoxicate ourselves so much? Why do we feel empty and disconnected all the time? Why are our families disintegrating? Why are we obsessed with Guns and violence?
Sure Mexico has a corruption problem...but it is petty compared to what we have with our wall street ciorruption and how willing we are to send 100 of thousands of our young to war for OIL and kill and displace millions. Remember Mexico has never dropped napalm bombs on women and children villagers...we have in the defense of Freedom!

Mexico: Mass grave toll climbs; government defends itself
The number of bodies pulled from two sets of clandestine graves -- one in the border state of Tamaulipas and the other in Durango state to the southwest -- is climbing toward 300 as violence in Mexico takes an often mind-numbing toll. In a meeting with the media -- in which questions were n...
White Folks have to keep in mind that they are an anomaly here in North America.
In California the white population was been a majority only for 125 years,( a tiny bleep in California's human historical record) by snuffing out the native Latino population by land theft, institutionalized racism and apartheid practices.
For millennia before California was always native based.
This news would be more startling if this demographic shift had occurred in white ancestral lands in Britain or Ireland.

Rod,
It saddens me when Americans don’t really know their own neighbor.
Mexico is a democracy with about the same level of corruption (if not less) as we have here in the US (Wall Street, special interest Lobbyists, Corporate rights vs. Common citizens, etc.)
Egypt is a dictatorship; Mexico is not. The crime in Mexico stems from drug traffickers vying for access to the US drug market and not ideology, dictatorships nor religious extremists.

Is the drug war creeping into Mexico City?
On a street corner waking up for the day Thursday in downtown Mexico City, La Plaza observed a military unit on patrol. A green Humvee was stationed in front of a convenience store, with several armed soldiers inside. One stood behind a mounted automatic firearm. Two troops in green fatigues a...
The question is why are gun laws so lax that a convict can go out there and buy one? The NRA and their sheep share responsibility for this demented man .
I see no c0nnection here as a professional hit man would not be bragging to neighbors about his gigs.

In this day and age and in the multi-racial society that is Southern Cal. This PIG has some nerve.
Since when are whites native to North America? He needs to get deported back to where he is originally a native.

Neo-Nazi running for seat on Riverside County water board
A well-known white supremacist is running a discreet campaign to try to unseat an incumbent in November on the board of a Riverside County water district. Jeff Hall hasn’t posted any signs, didn’t show up to a candidate forum and lists no occupation on the November ballot. But as California dire...
This crook should join his pal Rizzo in jail for Life and his pension cut to ZERO.
