Straight to DVD

Thank you for sharing this information. Good report

I rented an interesting movie today. It is called “The Virgin of Juarez”. It is a fictionalized account of a survivor of the Juarez murders. Ok, it’s a bit more than fictionalized, it gets out of hand. But it revolves around the killings of women in Juarez. The movie was made straight to DVD, meaning it was never released into the theaters. What a shame, the killings haven’t gotten a lot of press lately and if it had made it to the theaters with some fanfare it would have left a big shit stain in Cd. Juarez. A well deserved shit stain.

On the *** a couple 2 or 3 years ago, we had a discussion about the killings. Oh boy, all the statisticians came out and laid down the numbers how other world cities are worse and how Mexicans a great people, what a great society Mexico is and their rich culture. They blamed the media for all the attention and negative press Juarez was getting and how they wished it would go away. They wanted to hear good news from across the border. They wanted to hear about rainbows and puppy dogs. Well they got what they wanted, no more press and attention. Yeah, that really makes the problem go away. Women are still being killed in Juarez. The current number is over 300 killed and 3 times that number are missing and it keeps on happening.

I live just across the border from Juarez and I visit with virtual impunity. Most of you who read and post on these forums live away from the border with very little concern about what happens locally, and why should you? Why should I? After all we are not women who work in factories. But if it were American mongers being raped, mutilated and having their nipples bitten off, these monger forums would be filled with completely different posts wouldn’t they?

You can jack off on your statistics and numbers all you want it doesn’t change a damn thing for the women of Juarez. It has nothing to do with numbers and everything with the way they were killed and will continue to be killed. There are too many commonalities with the way they were killed. No one group or one individual could be responsible, but one thing remains. Every law enforcement agency is completely impotent at solving let alone stopping the killings.

These killings are racially and economically motivated. The victims are darks skinned, meaning mostly Indian blood. They work in maquiladoras, meaning the do not prosper as well as other Mexicans. Not one downtown puta has been found decomposing in the desert. The families get no help from the police because they cannot afford to pay for justice.

Suspects over the years have been arrested. Some are locked up, others released and a couple have been killed within hours of being cleared of charges. Some of the accused have had their lawyers gunned down in broad daylight by the police. One lawyer was shot with an AK-47 at a busy intersection during rush hour. Yet no witnesses.

The least anyone can do about this is to at least pay a little regard to the victims and their families suffering and leave your statistics in the shit can where they belong. Stop adoring Mexico and Mexicans as the greatest thing since corn tortillas. I already know not all Mexicans are bad, hell my family came from Mexico so I have an inside look at the good and bad. Let me tell you, the good is better than you think and the bad gets worse.
