Terror in México
Incalculable is the number of abuses and crimes that are being perpetrated in México not only because of the drug traffic situation but also the traffic of immigrants who are willing, with financial help from their relatives, to pay considerable amounts of money to cross the border from Mexico into the United States of America. And also incalculable are the number of immigrants, especially Central Americans, who can not pay the full price to cross over and are kept as hostages for long periods of time or are victims of terrible extremes such as those seen in the massacre of 72 immigrants who were murdered in Tamaulipas, México, which made headlines across the world.
Usually, the immigrants who become victims of these crimes are Central Americans. Cubans, if they are able to make it across the border into the United States have no problem because the Cuban Adjustment Law gives them the privilege to stay here even if they have entered without the proper documentation.
This crime wave constitutes a challenge for the Mexican authorities and shows an almost total lack of security and the incapability of the government to prevent these horrific assassinates perpetrated by organized crime. Moreover, it should be taken into consideration that there are other crimes committed by the drug cartels in alarming numbers and with terrible characteristics. This is an unfortunate and discrediting situation for México.Statistics reveal that since President Felipe Calderón took office there have been some 28,000 assassination of this type, mostly in the northern part of the country. In México, there are huge numbers of law-abiding citizens who must be infuriated by what is happening and who should make every effort to combat these crimes before they become the norm in that great country.
Hopefully, the magnitude of these crimes, these huge number of murders and so much insecurity, will shock the most valuable sectors of the Mexican nation and, as a result, that every measure needed be adopted to stop so many crimes, so many outrages, that discredit one of the most important nations of Hispanic America.
