The Kids Being Trained and Armed to Fight Mexican Cartels
Cartel violence has gotten so bad in an indigenous area of Guerrero that locals have formed an armed militia with boys as young as 6.
“No one takes notice when the children are illiterate and malnourished. No one cares until they see children with guns.”

Bullets don't discriminate. One more reason why not every idiot should be able to bring death in a pocket at the tip of their finger as they choose. A bullet just applies to the physics. You point it at its goal, shoot and then it flies away to hit whatever was in front of your barrel. A bottle, a painted target, a wall, a deer, a man, a woman, a son, a father, a child, your own head... It's as innocent as gravity. But it will still kill you.

With that context in mind, it’s no wonder they don’t want to fall into the cartel’s hands. Worst video I ever saw was a guy being executed for being a “Chapulin” (it’s a way of saying snitch or rival group informant) They cut both the guy’s arms and legs off, and we was well alive for that. And then proceeded to beat the guy with his own limbs.

@SirVixIsVexed It may be because guns are very highly regulated in Mexico, even more so than say Canada or Japan. Like here in Canada people cns have guns so long as they're licensed, registered and only taken out of a metal case or gun room when they're going to be used. In Japan you can get a gun so long as you have a legal and valid reason to use it regularly. Like if you're a security guard or you're a restaurant owner that sells freshly caught game. Like I heard in Mexico legally theres only a few stores in big cities that sell guns. Even then I heard you have to be a soldier to buy one. Most guns in Mexico are purchased from the U.S. or other countries.

You expect the Mexican government to address their ginormous failures? There are an estimated 40 000 people missing in Mexico in connection to cartels,there are about 100 murders a day, we need action not a speech, we needed action ten years ago.

See, Mexico is nice and all and had good food, but this shit still makes me wary. And I'm Chinese! Beijing is a shit government too. But I guess that's why I don't recommend it to people to visit. Shameful, but realistic. And what can you do? If there is a revolution, the drug cartels will win and take over. Civil War? Mexico cannot afford to have a power vacuum. Have America take it over as a protectorate? Right, in 2020... This is not a popular idea, but it is the only practical idea I have, I can see no other way. I don't expect the good people of Mexico to be powerful enough. Oh, right, there's no money in doing this for the Americans. Oh right, there's no money in doing this for the Mexican elite either. That's how it started...

We did supply them but not terrorists in the 1980s the soviet union invaded afghanistan the us didnt want communism to spread so they supplied freedom fighters to fight so afghanistan wasnt invaded the soviets ended up retreating in 1989 it wasnt until 1991 that the us got involved with oil in the gulf war.

My family is from Guerrero and im sad this has to happen. My uncle was killed at 24 by the cartels and targeted all of the men in the family. My husband saw his cousin get his brains blow out infront of him. Until the cartels have nowhere to make profit from this will keep going on .

4:23 If that government is going to see it as "abuse", how dare they! Start enforcing laws without being bribed by money or being promoted to a higher position! It's embarrasing to see that a government can't run a country properly. It makes me cry so much seeing kids being forced to grow up so fast... 😫😭😭😭 Kids deserve to live their childhood in peace, not have it taken from them.
Crazy!!! In a country where nothing is given to you even the children have to step up. At the same time in a country that offers so many opportunities there are adults who want more given to them as though they were helpless. Ridiculous!!!!!
