People are being massacre by the members of the drug cartels

The innocent families are suffering for their family members being killed. They are trying to look for justice but the authority doesn’t do anything.


Cartel members are using weapons, coche bombas(car bombs), grenades, also they ask people for money they called that “Cuotas” and if they don’t pay the fee, the cartel burns their homes or their places.

Families are crying in desperation because they are loosing their homes and business that they have built with effort.

Drug cartels look for young teens, and even kids ,in poor colonies, they give them money in trade of killing someone.

Now Kids look for weapons instead of toys. And they see the violence as something normal.


Since Felipe Calderon took office the crime, and violence increased. They brought soldiers and federals from Mexico city, but instead of protecting the citizens of Juarez, they make it worse, and they citizens face more fear.

People should not reelect Felipe Calderon. And the next president should increment more jobs so people could not sell drugs, rob, assault, or killed people for money.
