El Universal (Mexico City) 1/11/10

The bloodiest day

Last Sunday was recorded as the “most bloody day” so far in the cartel wars, with at least 69 organized crime assassinations reported in nine Mexican states. This record for one day surpasses the previous one set last August 17 during which 57 were killed. So far in 2010, there have been 238 organized crime related murders. As usual, Ciudad Juarez in the state of Chihuahua led the nation in the killing spree, contributing 26 of the murders.

Ciudad Juarez, world class violence

**********It’s official. Cd. Juarez is the world’s most violent city, according to figures issued********** by the non-governmental organization Citizen Council for Public Security. During 2009, the city averaged 191 homicides for each 100,000 inhabitants, placing it above such other high-crime cities as New Orleans, Medellin and Cape Town. The president of the council said the figures show that the federal government’s operations in the drug war have failed. [This story was repeated in nearly all the other major newspapers with the notable exception of the three in Cd. Juarez.]

You should move to Detroit. Preferably at an address in the city proper. Then you would be amongst good, law abiding, God fearing, legal citizens, and not have to worry about those filthy Mexicans.
