5,000 But Who’s Counting

The truth is, marijuana probably isn't going to make you kill people. Most likely isn't going to fund terrorists, but pot makes you feel fine with being bored and it's when you're bored that you should be learning a new skill or some new science or being creative. If you smoke pot you may grow up to find out that you're not good at anything.

A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.
Joseph Stalin (1879 - 1953)
It is so sad to see coward less acts of violence in one of the worst lawlessness places in modern times, and possibly in the world’s history. All due to drugs, lust and greed. In 2007 there were just shy of 2,500 murders in Juarez, Mexico. In 2008…it doubled to just over 5,000 in 2008. I have included 1 of a 3 day program called “Hearing Voices, Shooting Crime Scenes in Juarez, Mexico.” You can link to this on

and I would strongly encourage you to educate yourself about the tragic happening by listening to the other 2 days on NPR.org.
I can’t believe the Mexican Government is taking no action on this matter and it is very frustrating. They send in the military to put up some fake front as if they give a damn. Nobody is ever punished or imprisoned. Now that nobody is investigating these lawful actions and punishing the criminal it has spilled over into mass raping and murder of women. Just because they know they will be able to get away with it. It is so sad. I don’t know what to say. I truly believe in the good consciousness of people but rarely get disgusted with what we humans can do to one another.
