So much reporting on the middle east but for years not much is reported on what goes on just south of the border.

Gangs, drug lords, massacres,kidnapping of foreigners for $$, thousands fleeing across the border......

One tv show that brought attention to the border trouble was the show "the Border" and a few episodes from "Breaking bad"

MY cousin in married to a Mexican from Guadalajara an his parents will not allow them to visit cause of the crime.
I used to travel often down to Guaymas, Mazatlan and Baja an even taught at the art academy in Guadalajara for 6 months an loved it.

A mass grave has been found on the outskirts of the Mexican town of Iguala, where 43 students went missing on 27 September, officials say.
The group had travelled to the area, in the state of Guerrero, to take part in a protest over teachers' rights.

Police opened fire on their buses, killing six people.

Twenty-two police officers are being held in connection with the shooting.

Witnesses said the most of the survivors - all trainee teachers - were bundled into police vans before disappearing.
