Ciudad Juarez: The world's murder capital

An average of seven murders a day in 2009, in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, a city of about 1.5 million people, has the highest homicide rates in the world.

"The escalation of murders in Ciudad Juarez is the result of a turf war between the growing Sinaloa cartel led by Mexico's most wanted man, Joaquin" El Chapo "Guzman and the Juarez cartel, according to Victor Valencia , the secretary of public safety in the state of Chihuahua "(BBC).

Of the 1,986 murders so far in 2009 - a jump from 815 in 2008 - the majority of gang members involved in a feud drug cartel fighting to gain control of local drug and route smuggling in El Paso, Texas, located just across the border. El Paso "has been for years the main transit point for cocaine passing from Mexico into the U.S.."

"The annual rate of murders in Juarez has reached 133 per 100,000 inhabitants, surpassing Caracas, Venezuela. The murder rate in New York like last year was six per 100,000 "(The Telegraph).

Of the nearly 2,000 murders, the victims included 107 women, 85 children and 49 police officers. Many of the deaths involved beheadings, dismemberment - even destroying the victim tied to two trucks. Most of the killings remain unsolved.

45 years of technological institute of juarez

Yesterday was the celebration of 45 years of the Instituto Tecnologico de Ciudad Juarez, but I could not write this "post" for roe, lack of humor, could not connect the phone to the computer (for photos that will come out below), etc ...

But anyway, I will comment a bit. The fact that I really like my school, even with its flaws, lack of capital and technology, bad words and all smokers.

And even if it was not a student of technology, I would still attracting a lot. I like the academic level, how to be and teach their subject of most teachers, kindness and peace of students among them, and much more others.

The parade was not lazy and busy playing Yu-Gi-Oh, but is generally quite good, with many students excited, cars "allegorical" (notice the quotes), and many things like that. (By the way, who was the one who painted "45 years" on the back glass of my car? ¬ ¬ )

UPDATE: Thanks to SkyYoshi for uploading the video of the techno parade. You can see here:

Anyway ... just want to present my point of view, the fact of the celebration, and then leave you with two photos of what happens in technology. A technology's fault (as usual), and the other of any (a) student (s) charged (a).

(Give click to the images below for full image)

This is the famous wheelchair ramp 4 × 4 which is located in the area of systems. (It is noted both in the photo, but they are like 20-30 cm of the soil at the ramp. Apart from that there is no down pure irregular plot of land, which becomes a quagmire when it rains)

How about this photo, which shows a car parked directly behind another? Who would have thought the person who parked directly behind, I wonder, because parking in the technology never fails. The parking "extra" is pure earth, but that it exists, exists. But as well, I'm not going to school to judge who can not walk far ... By the way, I have to say that's not the first time I see this sort of thing xD

Over twenty elements of the Municipal Traffic Department (DGTM) left yesterday to work without the regulatory arms was authorized to carry them because the listings were not updated with the names of personnel who would receive the caliber revolver type gun. 38 of 6 shots and 12 replacement cartridges.

She added that it is updated listings and the 392 agents that make up the corporation and the bank can apply to weapons of Municipal Public Security Secretariat of the gun charge, which shall be delivered daily to complete the turn.

"I feel safer armed, at least they have the opportunity to defend ourselves," said a motorcyclist West District, who yesterday had only a pepper spray to face any possible aggression.

Several officials interviewed by The Journal and most of them agreed to note that from the time they carry a gun because they feel more confident to perform their functions.

They also agreed to state that the disarmament of the officers was unnecessary, since they are not given a new permit to carry and bring some credentials which does not specify the type of weapon they carry.

"We do not have a new permit to carry, we took them out (the bank) with the same document we had," they said.

They are also the same weapons, which gave us no longer use Public Safety, for they are providing 9 mm, they said.

In this regard, the spokesman said that officers were .38 caliber revolver type weapons, whose management was learned from recent academic and practice shooting feedback on the premises of the Municipal Police Academy.
