"Perhaps instead of sheltering these girls they should have exposed them to the real danger out there."

I disagree with that. Parents should instead increase camera surveillance security against such international slavers and take them down.

Yes. She is fifteen not five.

She packed her things and went to meet a guy. She was upset with her parents because he dumped her.

Perhaps these parents should quit reading these girls Cinderella and read them The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck.

You can have cameras all over the place but until you manage to teach girls that going off with strangers is not a good idea they will still disappear.

real numbers are probably higher. I was in El Paso for two years from 1994-96. Remember reading a Mexican paper article about over 300 girls who had gone missing in Juarez in less than a year. They uncovered a police/drug/gang/ring that had been kidnapping girls and killing them in ritualistic parties. Mexican papers don’t hold back showing pics of the murder victims.

Mexico, like many former European colonies, is just reverting to what it was before Europeans brought Christianity to them.

When I drive into Mexico for work, I have to stop at the immigration office and pay my fees. The walls are COVERED with posters with missing girls. Many girls willingly crossed into Mexico to visit friends and family and just disappeared. I was offered a transfer (and a bonus) to live in Laredo and work in Mexico, but I turned it down. No way in hell I’m moving my wife and two daughters within 200 miles of that border.

the should contact our immigration department. Do they fingerprint, photograph and take DNA samples? Rhetorical question.

Few of the girls are runaways. We’re already aware of how the kidnappers operate. Some try to entice girls with jobs and other ploys. Others operate more like ISIS by simply grabbing them and running. Many of the girls are the kind who avoid parties and are kidnapped in rural areas, when they walk some little distance from their houses.

The kidnappers need to be put in the ground. In at least one state, kidnappers can legally be shot in the act. Readers here should check the statutes of their own states. Police agencies should start baiting the kidnappers, before others do.

Girls are also being kidnapped in states far from the southern border.

I ran into an expat, woman and she said down there she was nearly abducted if not for a good Samaritan chasing off the crook and rescuing her.

The Mexican culture is terrifically violent toward women.

Drinking and driving, wife-beating, and child-molesting = weekend hobbies for far too many Mexican men in the USA. Can’t be any better in their home country.


In short, this really is the word “Machismo”, being Macho we’ve heard about but in a very ugly sense.

People don’t even want to know what goes on there. Some US companies, when doing work in Mexico, at least the El Paso/Juarez area, send their workers over in Armored Cars, I’ve been told bodies are routinely found down there buried forget about out in the desert, in the city itself.

Now, this phenomenon has shown up in other Latin American countries, the truth is, I think it was down there previously but just not identified as such.

Once, someone was going through stats and then, this must have been in the early or mid ‘90s, they noticed, “Hey, the missing rate for women is uncommonly high”, it took them awhile to get it.

“These are the kind of people Obama wants to give amnesty to.” Not just the Kenyan clown-in-chief, and not just Democrats.

Maybe so but the ones in this story are indeed runaways.

Saying that they were kidnapped is not accurate.

Some try to entice girls with jobs and other ploys.

These are the methods mentioned and they are not kidnapping. They are also the easiest to defend against. It is up to the girls families to teach them not to go off with strange men.

Others operate more like ISIS by simply grabbing them and running. Many of the girls are the kind who avoid parties and are kidnapped in rural areas, when they walk some little distance from their houses.

Different situation then those in this article. And that is indeed kidnapping.

What you are suggesting is nice but unlikely to happen in Mexico.
