The Nook: Violence mars Mexico's independence day celebration
Permalink  

Monday night, two explosions were responsible for 8 deaths and 101 wounded during a celebration. This is just another act of violence in a year filled with violent crimes. 1,500 deaths have been a result of organized crime in Mexico this year. Although the government is working on a plan to decrease the violence, nothing has resulted yet.

Do you think the U.S. should help Mexico solve its increasing violence dilemma?

I dont think its our business, it may be of some significance, being as we are their neighbor, but the policing and security of their nation is their own problem

If they asked, maybe we could send some advisors to help with a comprehensive plan to end the violence, but it would have be Mexico's prerogative.

Definitely not our business. I think the U.S. should be staying out of foreign countries. Its a conflict that we could not fully understand seeing as we are not familiar with the state and rivalries of Mexico.

i agree
we should definetly mind our own business
our economy is simply not healthy enough to be inserting itself in to foreign countries

I do not believe this problem is also a big enough crisis for the U.S. to interferre considering our economy right now, it just simply can not be done.

i don't think its any of the u.s' buisness, but if they ask for help we should help. we shouldn't go and help them uninvited.
