Dear MEL Topic Readers,

How dangerous is Mexico?

Recently, a group of three mothers and their 14 children in a convoy of three cars in northern Mexico were ambushed by gang members. Six children and three women from a Mormon community in northern Mexico were killed and five other children were wounded.  The cars were all burned and children who tried to flee from the car were shot. The ambush was thought to be “a mistake” of the gang group that tried to attack other gang group members.

This is just one example of how dangerous and outrageous Mexican gangs are. They make too much money by one of the most lucrative illegal businesses, drug smuggling. Also, they do anything to make money, including extortion, money laundering, human trafficking, kidnapping for ransom, people smuggling and contract killings. Furthermore, they bribe, threaten, or even attack politicians, law enforcement officials, and even military forces to maintain their interest and influence. In fact, a large number of heavily armed gang members stormed into a city and surrounded the security forces and forced the government to release their captured boss. For drug cartels, nothing seems vicious in the name of interest.

Read the article and learn about the dark side of sunny Mexico.
