Emiliano Zapata's quotes:
"Better to die on your feet than to live a lifetime on your knees" "The land is for those who work it" "If there is no justice for the people, let there be no peace for the government" "I want to die being a slave to principles, not to men"
Zapata was assassinated by agents of Venustiano Carranza, Mexico's president and an opponent of Zapata's land reform agenda, at age 39.

So growing avocado means you are toast .......
The best avocados in the world are grown in Fallbrook California.
Good thing the Mexican government is kept safe from armed citizens who might protect themselves from the cartels....
What is encouraging though, is villagers and favela residents are occasionally lynching sicarios, loan sharks, gangsters, and other scumbags in extremely brutal fashion. ALL without guns. They beat them to death with whatever they find and light them on fire. You can find the celebrations online if you have a strong stomach.
