Dear MEL Topic Readers,
How dangerous is Mexico?
Recently, a group of three mothers and their
14 children in a convoy of three cars in northern Mexico were ambushed by gang
members. Six children and three women from a Mormon community in northern
Mexico were killed and five other children were wounded. The cars were all burned and children who
tried to flee from the car were shot. The ambush was thought to be “a mistake”
of the gang group that tried to attack other gang group members.
This is just one example of how dangerous and
outrageous Mexican gangs are. They make too much money by one of the most
lucrative illegal businesses, drug smuggling. Also, they do anything to make
money, including extortion, money laundering, human trafficking, kidnapping for
ransom, people smuggling and contract killings. Furthermore, they bribe, threaten,
or even attack politicians, law enforcement officials, and even military forces
to maintain their interest and influence. In fact, a large number of heavily
armed gang members stormed into a city and surrounded the security forces and
forced the government to release their captured boss. For drug cartels, nothing
seems vicious in the name of interest.
Read the article and learn about the dark side
of sunny Mexico.
