Many movements are born out of necessity and on a rare occasion they are ignited / inspired by clueless political leadership.
Such was the case of " I am 132".
Was there and is there social injustice in Mexico ?
Dumb question.
Did the students who became " I am 132" wish for a
Mexican version of the Arab Spring?
Absolutely!
Where they looking for the social spark that could ignite
their movement?
Yep!
Did a paranoid, uninformed Candidate Nieto give them exactly
what they and those would love to leverage the event the spark they needed.
Well, the history on that topic is already written!
Now, true President Nieto has a history with confrontations
in the State of Mexico
and the results were deadly, but sometimes some people just don't learn from
past mistakes.
As of today, the I am 132 movement is not as vocal as it was
back in 2012, but you can rest assured
the concept lives on, especially on the campuses in Mexico City.
Is this group by itself worthy of the Mexican government's constant
attention?
Apparently so!
So, why is that?
Can one huge mistake by political leadership possibly lead
to yet another cascading miscalculation?
I would bank on it.
As I said last week, the common people who make up the
Community Police phenomenon need nothing more than a moral ally... an ally that
lives in the heart of the largest city in Mexico .
Can you think of any location where the concept of social
injustice and Revolution more appealing than on a College Campus?
Did you pay attention to the site I referred to at the end
of my last post?
In Police work..... they call this " A Clue"!!!!
Here is my point.
Are the right ingredients present to bring Mexico closer to
the edge of social instability; remembering my theory of regionalized, temporary
loss of continuity of Governance!
"Crime is down".. or so says the President of
Mexico!!
"Things are getting better", or so says the
Mexican government!
Yes, in my humble opinion, Mexico is far closer to real
problems..... problems far beyond the DTO conflicts.
My first few post on this site have been nothing more than a
simple attempt to paint a picture of where Mexico could head and what
indicators we should all be watching.
Over the next few days, I will try to shape examples of day
to day life in Mexico and
see if anyone in the US
can realy relate to what is taking place.
I think you will find the contrasting stories I'll review
both amazing and hopefully eye-opening.
Lets hope so..
