100 Mexican Politicians Assassinated Since 2017

Breitbart TX: As next month’s elections in Mexico approach, a disturbing trend continues with the government’s inability to provide basic security for politicians as the number of those assassinated exceeds 100.

According to statistics compiled by Mexico City-based Etellekt and local media, there were 11 candidates murdered per month from September 8 to May 26, 2018. The updated report indicates that in the last three months, there were three attacks per day related to the electoral process nationwide.

The most recent attack not covered in this report involves the case of Rodrigo Salado, a PRI (Partido Revolucionario Institucional) candidate for alderman in the municipality of San Marcos in Costa Chica de Guerrero, who was murdered by three gunmen who opened fire at the vehicle Salado was traveling in. They were able to flee and remain unidentified.  more

  1. What has changed down there since the days of Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata? Three things: the population has exploded, drugs cartels are running large areas of the country, and the United States is no longer defending its border from marauding Mexicans with U.S. Army troops. Caramba!

  2. Mexico’s next election is a month away. When AMLO gets in there, all hell will be breaking loose. He has already said he won’t be as tough on the cartels.

    What a relief. For them.

    Chavista on our doorstep and illegals fleeing in our foyer. It’s going to be a fucking nightmare.

  4. Interesting side bar…?

    Had a precious metal buying operation for some years a while back. There was only one type of gold coin that was not kept for resale and went into the “melt/scrape.” The ones with the eagle and the snake were the only ones we couldn’t resell. Was that because we didn’t speak Spanish? Even the Russian stuff was sale-able instead of melt.

    Ah the good old days when there was money to be made…

  5. WHY I DON’T CARE…. by Mithrandir

    These people are so power hungry, that even when they are bumped-off, there is still a long queue to replace them.

    The people who are worthy of having power are the ones capable, but too selfless to take the job. –Not these cockroaches.

    Don’t feel sorry for them.
