      It's not about that. It's about corruption and the cartels control everything because even if you don't want to be bought and paid for, they will threaten your families.
      Mexico and the USA has a parasitic relationship, and they both feed off of each other. And with that much money being made by cartels, they rule over Mexico. It's not going to change anytime soon, regardless of who is in power there.

    In Celaya Guanajuato there have been i think 16 police officers murdered just since the beginning of rhe year. Also in the news today, 2 ambulance drivers in Celaya were killed for eefusing to give medical attention to cartel members and three ambulances were set afire.
    Celaya is now the most dangerous city in the world per capita murders, ovettaking Tijuana. .

  • @1988vikable
    @1988vikable 9 дней назад +3

    Most of the killings are occuring in Mexican Michoacán and Guerrero. My guess is these are transit routes or areas that the cartel works in and they need a Mayor that isnt goinfg to jeopardize their profits. Many of these mayors im sure were warned that if they continued to run or keep their office they were going to meet their end. Its very sad and upsetting. However these cartels I hear are very powerful and so AMLO has been hessitant to take them because hed rather make Mexico institutions stronger in order to take on the cartel. Mexico is taking control of the country in many right directions but the cartel problem needs to be addressed asap.

    That is because the right wing opposition has an alliance with criminal groups!! Mexican people are fed up with right wing politicians and don’t want to go back to that type of government; therefore, these rejected politicians are desperately trying to keep the left wing politicians from advancing and becoming even more powerful after the upcoming elections on June 2nd.
