Entire Mexican police force arrested after mayoral candidate’s murder

Interesting read (understatement) CW5 Jack Cardwell. Stories like this are placed in the trunk while videos of children being seperated from their parents because of illegal immigration are thrust into the spotlight. As a civilized Nation (for the most part), we rightfully feel sorrow for those who are collateral damage from this immigration crisis, all the while demanding that our Country keep us “safe at all costs!”

Many of us unfortunately will agree with “all costs” until we find just what those costs are.

The drug cartels in Mexico can make no more money in Mexico. You can only put so many Walmart Supercenters within 5 miles of each other before they start shutting each other down. When that happens, you either have to decide to be happy with what you have or start expanding your area of operations and developing a new business strategy.

Unfortunately, the United States is just that to these cartels; a new business strategy. The expansion plan for a “legitimate” industry south of the border that is backed by just as much money and organization as many of our own states, and they don’t have a Federal deficit.

What is the answer?

In my opinion, I can only point problems out without offering any reasonable solutions. In that respect, I imagine I would have made a pretty good Congressman.

However, I can say (with some degree of accuracy) that the answer doesn’t rest solely in the hands of the liberal left or the conservative right.

I use to think of our government parties as “Yin and Yang”. You know, kind of synergistic. They would compliment each other and keep each other “honest.”

That “SYSTEM”, that would work well here. Politicians getting together to work on a sincere solution. To sit down and actually seek a mission statement.

Something to the effect of:

“To continue to promote the spirit in which this Country of immigrants was created while still providing for the highest degree of National Security possible.”

From that, develope the objectives:

1. To maintain or increase National Security
2. To identify the past, current and future threats that Mexican drug cartels pose to the United States
3. To provide for the humane and ethical treatment of current and future illegal immigrants in the United States

This was quick. 5 minutes, a cup of coffee and a pencil and a notebook. We pay the average Congressman $170,000 annually with benefits, I make whatever they think I’m worth as a disabled veteran.

I refuse to believe that the very best that our political process has to offer is “more of the same.”

Heck Chief, I just veered so far off course from the intent of your posted article that I’m not even sure if anyone even remembers the original article was about drug cartels most likely backing an entire police department that was so corrupt that they assassinated a mayoral candidate (allegedly). I do, however, believe if we fail to recognize and admit that deportation and these cartels are part of a shared problem we will find ourselves in the middle of a war on our soil that has the possibility to change the face of our Nation forever.

In summary: “Can’t we all just get along?”, LOL.

(The illustration, “If you cannot find peace within yourself, you will never find it anywhere else.”, I believe holds true for our Country.)

Our southern neighbor. And their President thinks he has the right to lecture us!

that is interesting news CW5 Jack Cardwell that the entire police force of Ocampo in the western state of Michoacan were arrested Sunday, June 24, 2018 on suspicion of involvement in the murder of Mayoral candidate Fernando Angeles Juarez.

"A Mexican town’s entire police force has been arrested in connection with the slaying of a mayoral candidate.
The 28 officers from the town of Ocampo in the western state of Michoacan were arrested Sunday on suspicion of involvement in the murder of Fernando Angeles Juarez.
Juarez, 64, was running as the candidate for the center-left Party of the Democratic Revolution in Ocampo, before being shot dead June 21.
State officials took the cops in for having alleged ties with criminal groups possibly involved in the candidate’s killing, El Universal reported.
Public Security Director Venancio Colin was chased out by 16 Ocampo cops in a hail of bullets when he first tried to arrest them Saturday, sources told the paper.
He came back Sunday with reinforcements and arrested the entire force, who were cuffed and taken to the state capital for questioning.
Juarez, a successful businessman with little previous political experience, was the third politician to be killed in Michoacan in just over a week, the BBC reported.
“He couldn’t stand seeing so much poverty, inequality and corruption and so he decided to run,” one of his closest friends, Miguel Malagón, told El Universal.
Mexico will vote for a new president July 1, alongside more than 3,000 federal, state and municipal posts.
More than 1,000 candidates have dropped out of local races ahead of the elections because they fear being gunned down.
Drug cartels are suspected in many murders of politicians and the 2018 campaign has been a bloody one — with dozens of politicians, candidates and activists murdered by gangsters."
