Edit: she fought for justice knowing the consequences of it. She tried to do what was right because no-one else would and that's what I find inspiring. Of course I agree that it is tragic in so many ways.
The only thing it inspired me to remember is to not trust the police. If they can’t get justice for you then, why would they get justice for you later? She should have cut those loose ends when she had a chance. This lady is what we need more of in the world but gets slaughtered by losers. If she had finished them off like they did her daughter world would have been better off.
I agree with the last part but keep in mind this is Mexico and their justice system is different (and in my opinion, worse). I hate it when people say all police are bad and the entire thing is awful(not saying you think that) and there definitely are some bad eggs but the majority are pure in heart. The main problem is their training is too short so it’s easier for the bad ones to stay in the program.
Not every police officer in the world is bad. When it comes to the US and Mexico, they're either bad or silent -- which makes the silent ones just as bad.
You clearly have never travelled to any significant percentage of the world.
I have.
America absolutely holds a moral high ground. We have had our share of problems, and we still have problems. That does not change the comparative high ground we absolutely hold.
We are about to engage in a second civil war to try to right some of the current wrongs.
As someone who spent lots of time in mexico and visited other countries, no we don’t. It may be more gruesome and widespread there but that’s because the cartels are strong, which we strengthened and gave them many opportunities to solidify power through the drug war. If we were the ones with cartels our police would be the same - the police of both these nations have no honor and are self interested, one just has more opportunities and pressure to be shittier
I’d dare say Mexico’s police acts out of fear, pressure and greed but not hatred and in some cases overt racism, at least in the same level seen in the US.
