Guajardo was a strong critic of the infiltration of drug gangs in the November mayoral elections.

Nothing major, just a typical Mexican election.

Rio Bravo = Rio Grande, from the Mexican side.

Guajardo was a strong critic of the infiltration of drug gangs in the November mayoral elections.

That took a lot of courage. It seems like anytime one hears about a Mexican public figure trying to do something about the drug gangs, the next thing you know, that person is assassinated. So people who could be good leaders and help Mexico develop are constantly being eliminated.

It was only a decade ago that Sicillian politicians and "il popoli" started to protest about La Cosa Nostra and the code of "Omerta." Let's hope that the folks in the border towns get some stones re the Narcotraficos.

A shame as northern Mexico away from the border is a relatively prosperous and peaceful area (see Monterrey, Durango, etc.). Juarez is the worst city north of DF.

It's America's fault!!!!

No, really, it is.

Because American citizens are willing ,nay,eager, to buy and ingest illegall drugs in hope of "highs" and "better sex",plus those fine American businessmen and "farmers" who care only that the hired illegal immigrant labor is cheap,this nation is the culprit.

If U.S. of A. was not the place to make money selling illegal drugs and labor ,they would not be here.

I thought Rio Bravo was Mexican for the Rio Grande River, starting in Colorado, going through New Mexico and then forming the boundary between Texas and Mexico. Is there also a Mexican town called Rio Bravo?

It may help if Mexico would try to provide jobs for their unwashed and uneducated.
Arizonas new law making it illegal to hire illegals is having wonderful effects.
Lots of illegals are leaving there.

Sorry to hear that. I found Monterrey to be a safe (and clean) place when I used to travel down there from 99-02.
