ReplyDelete@1:59 That would be Chivis
DeleteShe is lucky to be alive.
ReplyDeleteAs an independent candidate she is vulnerable in many aspects of such behavior. Political parties have their alliances with criminal elements. Moreover, financial support.
If true democracy were to apply in Mexico. Government should provide security to all those presidential candidates. An implementation necessary whiere political assassinations are frequent in that country.
Something said does not mean something will be done. Mexico’s political theater is and will always be their destruction of a civilized society.

El Debate is reporting that the five journalists were “ extranjeros” which usually means foreign, they claim two are French but I can’t find the nationality of the other three named .
ReplyDeleteWow it's like a Final Destination movie, she lived this one because of the foreign journalists with her, but will she survive on 2nd attempt? As I have read on BB, the government does not want a good future for it's people.
ReplyDeleteMichoacan has to be the toughes state in Mexico, there is always stories from there that surprise me.
