Wow, nice piece of writing Edwina P. Garza: You used the word “said” 44 times in your article.

That being said, Mexico is a third world country and roaming death squads, cops and soldiers on the take, things like that are common place.

The only shocking thing is that these folks were surprised by what they saw.

What you said. ;-)

I'm glad we don't vacation it the area. My husband would have reacted, badly.

Actaully, it's kind of refreshing to have a reporter actually report what people "said." None of this "exclaimed, shrieked, bellowed, sobbed" for color, when we don't know if that's how it sounded. Also, no internal monologue on how the reporter thought it made them feel.

Just a recitation of what the alleged witnesses said -- we can make our own judgment. More journalists should try it!
