MM49,
I am sure you have vast experience traveling in Mexico so probably know a great deal more about it than my over 40 years of traveling there. So instead of telling us what you have read in the yellow press you tell us of some of your personal experience and leave out the media nonsense. I can certainly post some crime statistics about the great state of Michigan where there are some of the world's highest murder rates. If you have nothing of a useful nature based on personal experience maybe you can find another forum where things you actually know about will welcome your vast knowledge.
Here's a second chance. Let's see who or what you blame it on. Please address the issue not my experience in Mexico or Detroit's problems.
'On June 23rd, Mexican authorities announced that they had arrested Ruben Oseguera Gonzalez, known as ‘El Menchito.’ Oseguera is the son of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as ‘El Mencho, the head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). Elements of the Mexican Army conducted the operation in the Zapopan area of Jalisco, and he was arrested without incident.
Analysis: CJNG is one of the most powerful cartels currently operating in Mexico. The group has engaged in significant violence with the Mexican government, including an ambush that left at least fifteen state police officers killed in April. In May, the group used a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) to shoot down a Mexican Army helicopter, killing several Mexican soldiers. Previous arrests of high level cartel leaders have triggered significant acts of violence by the CJNG, and it is likely that the arrest of the group leader’s son will continue this trend. An increase in crime in Jalisco, as well as Michoacán, Colima, and Guanajuato is likely in the coming days and weeks.
