Drug Cartels in Mexico

What Mexico's government is trying to do is brave but I think it is not the solution to the problem:
  • "The cartels kill indiscriminately," 
  • "The violence that has gripped what many call the most deadly city in the Western Hemisphere".
Ciudad Juarez is described as one of the most dangerous cities in the world, so Mexico is not the only country that can face these criminals because, as everybody knows, many mexican deputies or senators are involved in criminal facts. As a matter of fact CNN showed an article saying that the 28% of mexican represenatives are corrupted.
I must say that The United States have to fight along mexicans against cartels, not just because what drug dealers are doing is unacceptable, but also because many drugs that you can buy in The States come from Mexico and also because they are killing Americans( two students of the University of Texas at El Paso)
United States will not only terminate the drug cartel criminality but also they will contribute to the security of american citizens.


The picture that I liked the most is the one showing an abandoned car sitting in the Mexican desert outside Juarez, Mexico, with doors and trunk wide open. Under a blanket in the trunk is a body. Hands tied together. A bullet in the head.
The photographer took a Black&White picture using the Rule of Thirds since the car, the subject, is on the upper square of the picture; I would say that he used the Leading Lines Rule too, because there are lines such as the shadows of the car and the interiors.
I chose this picture as my favorite because I think it better describes the violence that the citizens of Juarez are facing: their relatives could be kidnapped and killed at anytime. EVERYBODY IS IN DANGER
