Corruption and impunity for crimes are common in Mexico?
This is my shocked face
The local people know perfectly well who the corrupt officials are.
How can a local Mayor or Police Chief afford a luxury house or SUV on a government salary?
But the real problem in Mexiceo is the fact that they have effective gun control.
Citizens are unarmed so the welll armed police and criminals both victimize the citizens.
Local self defense militias have only recently been allowed and only in rural areas and are under the control of the Army.
Let us hope that this trend catches on and local "auto defensas" are not lured into crime
The phenomenal amounts of money to be made supplying illegal drugs to the U.S. are extremely tempting.
