Violence in Mexico rises by the day making people fear for their safety every time they step outside their homes. I hate to see how my beautiful country has become infested by corruption, and is now better known for its organized crime and kidnappings rather than for it's history, scenery, and culture. I too fear for my loved ones who live among such chaos, and have lost a relative due to corrupt government leaders. We have all discussed whether there is truly a solution to fix our home, or if it has become hopeless. The ones who have the power to do something about it have become the same ones who allow this madness to continue. The death penalty may seem like a step towards a solution, but in such a Catholic country, it is also a topic of controversy. Religion aside however, we cannot expect to stop killers by becoming killers ourselves, and in this segment, Axel Woolfolk explains why. Watch and please pass along to everyone you know.
