Cop who arrested El Chapo's son 'executed' after gunmen shoot him 155 times

Ahh we Americans have a pesky habit of presuming that Mexico's "police" are the equivalent of American law enforcement.

Most belong to some cartel. "Honest cops" in mexico means cartels on all sides are trying to kill you and your family.

The cartel members that made this hit could easily be "police" or "military".

Its a different world from where you come from.

 

Also for us in America, the idea that if one of our children went missing we would have to give the police extra money to do their job is completely foreign to us.
In many parts of Mexico, if someone goes missing and the family doesn't pay the bribe, the local police are going to put the investigation on the back burner, low priority, and not try very hard to find the person or investigate what happened.

There is a lot of crime in Mexico, and the local police probably have plenty of other unsolved murders and crimes to investigate.

 

This is a canadian example of the stupidest behavior I've seen.

 

Those cans of Coke in the car probably represent more money than those Mexican border guards get paid in an entire week.


Edit: I just did the math, that may actually be true.
Typical wage of Mexican police officer is the equivalent of $350 a month. That works out to $82 a week. Those guys probably paid more than $85 in the US for all that soda in the car.

 

I am praying you are kidding, kiddo.

 

not all mexican police are corrupt just like all american cops arent straight. there are bad apples in both american and mexican police.

 

Gangs suck.

Cartels suck.

Mexico sucks.

Gangs are filled with little boys who can't make it on their own in society (like men). They group together and run in a pack for security.

 

But the percentage of corrupt cops and government bureaucrats in Mexico is exponentially higher than it is in the U.S.

 

In America we might have a bad cop here and there, but the corruption of cops in Mexico is through the roof and world famous.

Did you ever ask yourself why/how some cultures can so easily become insanely murderous? The cartels seem to find lots of people who can murder entire groups of innocent people and/or families at the drop of a dime. Even our worst gangs in Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore and St Louis aren't that bad. From where I'm sitting, the most violent people on the planet are the very people the left claims will improve our country.

 

Oh that could have gone horribly wrong!

 

Well one thing I'll say , in Mexico it's equal opportunity corruption.. you don't have to be a millionaire or a billionaire to bribe an official. And @ Texan.. no, they are all corrupt.. or they're dead, altho' we do have a deputy sheriff that used to be a Chihuahua Estatal.. he couldn't handle the corruption so he immigrated here.

 

Mexico- the liberal paradise. Strictest gun laws in North America. A safe haven with hard workers. Why are the alt leftists not rushing to this great nation?

 

speculation aside, its hard to prove corruption is worse on one side than the other especially when it comes to police [brutality] and politics, look at donald trump, that guy is drowning in accusations of corruption.

 

a bad cop here and there? do me a favor. police brutality in america is like nowhere else on earth.

you seem to imply the cartel [mexican army] are insane murders while at the same time failing to acknowledge this is the exact same accusation levelled at the american army. short memory. go ask the iraqi families who have lost loved ones or ask julian asange for proof.

 

The tracking devices story is false. The ATF discussed looking for such devices but never acted upon the idea. Neither Obama or Holder ever knew anything about that. They did not have trackers removed as no trackers ever existed beyond a fantasy between ATF staff.

I agree on the rest. It is extremely difficult to source any automatic weapons out of the USA. Our laws make the manufacturing, selling and owning of machine guns very expensive against a very limited and tightly watched supply.

The vast bulk of cartel weapons come from the Mexican military and police (theft, corruption, removed from the dead bodies after battles) from Central and South America and from overseas sources.Especially the heavy machine guns w see mounted on armored vehicles. Or the hand grenades and rocket propelled grenades, these are not things found at American gun shows or gun shops!

 

you mean like politicians?

 

You know what would be a fun experiment? If the Conservatives here and all of Mexicos population could switch places. They can have our money houses cars etc and we would have to start from scratch. Mexico would become a global superpower in a matter of only a few decades and the US would look like, well Mexico today. I wonder why that is??? Hhmmmm... What could it be???

 

Politicians are scum. A different kind of scum, but still scum.

 

Absolutely. Have you ever heard of the "magical dirt" theory?

 

These guys are worse than ISIS.

 

Think ISIS with a huge bank account.

 

Right.

 

Not until now. I've been saying this for years. Now I have something to call it. Thanks

 

The problem is so bad, and so deeply rooted in their society, that I truly believe even if all the drug cartel criminals in Mexico were killed today, the problem would still be just as bad 5 years from now.
There's so much poverty and widespread corruption in the country, the ranks of drug cartel criminals would just automatically replenish themselves.
When one drug gang disappears, it just creates a vacuum and opportunity for another drug gang to ramp up their activity and take their place.

I don't know, maybe if you kept killing them year after year, eventually it might begin to have some small effect on the genepool.

Keep in mind these gangs are at war with each other and killing more of each other's members than the number the police are arresting.

 

well it's clear that the Mexican government
1. has very little power
2. has corruption issues

they need help but investing there is a waste of time unless something is done to get rid of cartels. They are more of a security risk to America that ISIS and Al queda have ever been.

we need a combined effort to make the Mexican government a real entity within it's own borders
