Mexico: Shootout Kills 11 Gunmen
This drug war is legitimately scaring the shit out of me. The news tends to report crimes as if they exist as far away and not close, but the Mexican drug war brings this fear to North America. Although we know this problem exists, not hearing it in the media somehow makes it easier. Now that it's making it onto major news outlets and is actually being written about it, the fear and the panic is growing larger and larger. While I think it's great that people are becoming more and more aware of the drug war and its effects on Mexican, Canadian and American governments, I fear for reporters and bloggers who are constantly being abused, tortured and killed in Mexico. Stay brave.
