We don't hear about the mass murder going on in Mexico...we hear about random murders every once in a while, but the police and military in Mexico...working for the high paying Mexican drug cartels...are slaughtering innocent Mexican citizens in the 10s of thousands every year......why? Because they disarmed the Mexican people....and there is no one to protect those people from the government.....
Police kill eight striking Mexican teachers in Oaxaca massacre - World Socialist Web Site
According to a statement issued by Section 22 of the National Union of Education Teachers (SNTE) in Oaxaca, police shot and killed eight people in Nochixtlán, including a professor of indigenous studies and a teacher’s son, and wounded 45 others by gunfire. Twenty-two people have “disappeared” after the attack.
Oaxaca’s state governor Gabino Cué and Mexico’s federal police chief Enrique Galindo confirmed that six civilians had been killed and 53 injured. Galindo also asserted that 55 federal and state police were injured, including three by gunfire, though he failed to document the latter claim.
The National Security Commission and Galindo initially lied about the attack, claiming that the federal and state police clearing the Nochixtlán blockade were unarmed. Galindo said that after teachers had agreed with police to disband, attackers from outside the blockaded area began to fire on both police and protesters in order to create “chaos and conflict.”
After the Associated Press and China’s Xinhua news agency released footage of police firing on protesters, Galindo was forced to change his story, conceding that he in fact ordered armed police to go to the scene, but only after police and protesters were fired upon by the supposed outside elements. Galindo’s changing of his story effectively shredded his and the government’s credibility, as did his claim that only three police officers were hit by gunfire, as opposed to over 50 protesters.
