Do These Americans Care About Human Life?

Do These Americans Care About Human Life?

I am afraid many Americans don't care, and they are ignorant of it. Or, they know about the cartels and the violence and these Americans don't care much about the thousands chopped up, every month, every year. The body parts do not even make it to the body bags, and less the morgues, because these victims are dismembered and lost, charred and buried, sometimes with acid, sometimes with gasoline or other combustibles. They are found and categorized in every gruesome way, regularly. It's butchery at its ugliest.

Pardon me for being graphic in print, so skip this next paragraph if you do not like imagining these real gut wrenching images and their descriptions:

Headless bodies strung up on bridges. Threatening and cruel placards adorning the decapitated of all sizes and ages and genders, of all socio-economic classes, thrown or carefully posed on streets, in ditches, in alleys, in trash cans, in puddles of blood. Some are found after days and weeks of putrification, rotting. Some look like they might be sleeping, barely touched as far as signs of physical stress and mental duress. Hands and arms and all body parts strewn across the roads and the fields. Some clothed, some naked. Some cut, bruised, visibly harmed or tortured, some with barely any signs of injury. Some missing eyes, ears, other parts of their head or torsos mutilated. Thousands blown apart in and around their vehicles. Some with their children slaughtered in their child seats behind them. Bullets and explosions and shattered glass and guns laying around... Videos of masked gunmen surrounding a victim, a hostage who is kneeling, ready to be "degollado" (throat slit), or worse. All means and methods of torture and death. Some featured on film or video, for effect, to cause continual fear and intimidation. I could go on in more detail, but you get the picture.

Many of these victims are not part of the cartels and drug trade, but are law enforcement, elected officials, journalists, regular truck drivers, food vendors, innocent family members, unlucky bystanders.

Some non-woke Americans are a lot to blame.

I am talking about Mexico. And I am talking about the killers in America who let the Mexicans continue to die. Many are tortured, some perish more humanely than others.

Those U.S. citizens that I blame for this ongoing massacre, some white, some black, some brown and all the colors of race and culture, consume the illegal drugs from their markets on the street and the back alleys and drug routes and parties and channels. Some profit from the drug trade and live big, as they think of it, but they wind up killing each other and us up here, in the fifty nifty, USA.

It's bad. Do we need to legalize drugs in order to quell the violence and incarceration here in the United States, yet worse in its human toll in Latin America? Is it our laws that are the real problem? Maybe, so get out and vote and change things. Make the marijuana legal to ingest and smoke and pass along that ganja to your buddy and mate. Smoke up the weed and forget about the illegality of it.

Meanwhile, the eviscerated bodies of brown ones continue, moving the meth, the weed, the heroin, the fentanyl, the cocaine. Arming up with their M-50 assault weapons and their machetes, and all deadly tools in between.

Sleep well, U.S. consumers, abusers, and illicit drug runners. Or, maybe it is our falsely established legal system to blame. The carnage is on you. The brutal deaths are on us. Either way. We need to change it, we need to take a knee, many knees, for the constant killing and massacre of our industrious neighbors to the south. And yes, the thousands, the thousands upon thousands, who die and die brutally, awfully, most sickeningly in Mexico, and other places to our south to get us our American fixes and highs and pay-offs and drug busts and increased jailings and imprisonment, and our backed up legal system here. Millions of lives ruined through violent competition and abuse, let alone the drug related accidents and minds scrambled and left running like paranoid hamsters, spinning on that maniacal wheel of insanity and the next fix, the next high.

But no doubt about it, we, these Americans, we do and we do not care, we do and we do not know, the absolute monstrous effects that our habits and trends cause down there.

It kills and incarcerates plenty up here.

But alas, Mexico, there are not enough coffins and urns to collect your savaged remains. I can't breathe for my Mexican brothers and sisters.

I am sorry, as are many North Americans of the U.S. of A. But we are apathetic, selfish, and ignorant.

Que Dios nos bendiga y perdone.

May God bless us and forgive us.

Lo siento mucho. I feel it really strongly. Do you?

Me agacho de rodilla. I get down on my knees.

I pray to God we can figure out this madness, that we can learn to make it stop. I should kneel and pray and do it more and more often. So should you.

Wake up Americans, there is more humanity than just us! Stop enabling the senseless death of us and them. Wake up!

Wake. Up.

Ignorance and apathy will drag us to hell, as we know in these times of pandemic and protest and division versus unity as a people.

Now you know. Kneel down and pray. God is great, but he needs us to help. Learn. Grow.

Get woke. Despiertos ya.
