Bribes or Death in Mexico: "Silver or Lead"
Byron Pitts reports on the murder of the mayor of a Mexican city, where powerful drug gangs seem to be giving authorities a choice of "silver or lead" - join us and we will pay you or don't and we'll kill you.

Yes so true ☝️🕇🕆🕇☝️🕆🕇
I think the mayor was originally working for the gulf cartel but when the zetas split from the gulf cartel they took over Santiago and murdered him and assigned a mayor they trusted
Those drug lords don't mess around! Scary stuff.
This is all about supply and demand. Stop the demand for drugs in the United States and you will no longer have a supply. Stop the shipment of Arms and ammunition to Mexico and the killings will be reduced. I guess that must be very hard to do, considering the large use of drugs in the United States.
you heard it again folks the bad guys in Mexico don't play by the rows lol

idk but when it comes down to town vs family I think its safe to say that family should always override a leadership role of your town if your life is put to danger.
Send the troops to the Mexicans! This should be the main war not North Korea or Iraq!

sad he just wanted a better place!
Idk but I sorta want Gold instead of silver soooo could we sorta make adjustmemts????
If this mayor only has a president of the country supporting him, he will not be dead. The same president the Philippines is having right now. If this cartels are in the Philippines, it will be an opposite story.
Isnt that something? They kill you or let you die, then they show up at your funeral. A definite cowardess yuppie trait.
Amazing guy
If he knew why never had guns to defense himself!
NO CONSUMER..... NO NOTHING.......
yes a message

I'd say let's rent them a few drones of the U.S. military clean up mexico and we use it to fund the wall.

Sorry, i guess i put it wrong. What they did was, when people fell behind on their taxes, they would eventually come up with the money and the lots no longer existed, deed were changed. They would also go around changing fences, so people couldnt recognized the land that they owned..... they were crooks, the people that they robbed, their kids joined the cartels and pointed them out. It was more like vengeance.....

it's the quality of the inventory of weapons and also quality of personnel for instance if the United States military really wanted to they can let off a low-level nuke the US military is a well-oiled war machine brush up on your history.
Tyson vs Rambo. I am not sure what the public safety guy means? Rambo with gun or bear hand?
This is why its a norm if you can't beat them you have no option by to join them. RIP
Who was your translator for this? Just because in Spanish we say plata it does not mean it's literally silver. Plata in this context means money. Cash.
He was amazing and his real men down for him know it. There are police he was above that he called brothers they are heavy involved. still apearing to still morn. going to see his family.Go after them
I'm not talking about the drug cartel or drugs ending from America I'm talking about the drug cartels thinking that they're too powerful thinking that they can challenge a military that's what I'm talking about drug cartel cannot challenge a military with ships aircraft bombs and machine guns don't have that kind of Firepower.
No
it's sad how he left his wife and kids behind, just because of evil doers in this world.
That’s what happens in a country that doesn’t have a 2nd amendment, and the citizens can’t defend them self’s.
I feel bad for this guys family but what did he expect? The cops and the federal politicians are all on the take.... who did he expect to protect him?
She probably didn't know that her husband was helping the cartels and that he was into deep.

silver or lead was a Pablo Escobar phrase and although plata is silver in English the word plata is use in Spanish to express money the correct translation should be money or lead COPY FROM GOOGLE : Meaning of "plata o plomo" This phrase, allegedly Escobar's policy, refers to the two options he gave to law enforcement officers and government judges: To either take a bribe (plata = money) or to take a bullet (plomo = lead).

vual grimoire, got a point but still doesn't sound right because in Spanish the term Plata is used day in day out as Money, in English it doesnt make sense because its not used that way plus it does not sound tight and doesnt connect with the action.
