CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico – The last remaining police officer in the Mexican border town of Guadalupe has disappeared, and prosecutors in northern Chihuahua state said Tuesday they have started a search for her.Emphasis on the gender HER, the ladies have been picking up the slack here in the war on drugs down in Mexico and they are unfortunately meeting the same fate as their male counterparts, you have to give them credit. Here in the US we do not hear all of the stories of violence that are happening on a daily basis just south of us, we pay more attention to news thousands of miles away. Well we should pay attention, this violence is separated by a mere fence or an imaginary line, some violence has already spread across the line and killed American citizens as well as law enforcement as well as border patrol agents. The time has long past for the Government to take a serious interest in this problem, we should have had troops on the border years ago and not just a couple of hundred but thousands with a clear and defined mission. Sadly though politics will not allow it, if we actually secure the border and lock it down we remove safety valve for Mexico. Illegal activity from Mexico to the US generates millions of dollars for their country and if you shut it down you could very well see Mexico involved in a civil war and that would be bad for everyone.
