Human Rights Violations In Mexico

The massacre at the Plaza de la Tres Culturas Tlatelolco did not mark an end to the death and disappearances of citizens at the hands of the government, as the massacre was “the beginning of a long government crackdown on its’ real and suspected enemies. Hundreds of people were killed over the next 15 years.”(QUOTE) The most well publicized example, under Echeverría’s administration occurred in June 1971, when government forces gunned down protestors in Mexico City, killing 42 people and wounding at least 100. That day in June, students marched in support of workers, freedom of expression in the universities, and the release of additional political prisoners. Instead of assistance or steps towards peaceful conciliation, the students were again subjected to violent governmental opposition. SOURCE While the government denied any involvement and distanced itself from responsibility for the deaths, it was later uncovered that police had collaborated with rightwing students who disapproved of the leftist politics and participated in the attack. Once again, despite the efforts by Echeverria’s administration to display an image of reconciliation, the substance of his politics was not at all different from the repression of the previous administration.

Should the US have all of Texas and California or should we not have them? The US went to war with Mexico in 1846. In this war the US wanted to have the Manifest Destiny come true, so the US fought over land which is now called Texas. After the war had been fought over Texas, the US had a little later had attempted to take more land. In which, they were successful and now we call the land they fought for part of California. The US was right for going to war with Mexico for three reasons, Manifest Destiny, there was a vote on it, and Mexico attacked first.

The present research looks at intra-group processes among Latinos in the United States. The premise of the present paper has to do with the following question: Would a US Citizen of Mexican descent opt to keep a Salvadorian immigrant from entering the United States if given a choice? What about an immigrant from Mexico? If the answer to the first question is yes, this may imply some friction among Latinos. One consideration is that to reach the United States, Central Americans have to cross the United States of Mexico, and the Pew Research Center (2016) reports that Mexico has a high number of deportations. This center shows that in the last year, Mexico deported about 150,000 Central Americans from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Additionally, Mexico has increased its immigration law enforcement.

Police corruption continues to exist in Mexico and largely influenced by the Mexican Cartels. (Lopez-M.G.A, 2000, P.79) contends that the militarization of Mexico City’s police force is confirmation of ‘changing and uneasy relationship between civilians and the military.’ It is apparent that anyplace the Mexican drugs cartels enclose the largest impact; they would in all likelihood own the local law enforcements, in fact, over a timeframe ‘police forces had become woven into the cartels’ (Ainslie.C.R, 2013, P.35). The president of Mexico Fox noted that police officers earn a salary of ‘$600 a month’s but are offered bribes in the thousands’, furthermore, he states that ‘1,100 police officers’ were fired from their jobs for corruption. (Congress,

Mexico prison riot leaves 49 dead. The fight started around midnight and lasted about 30-40 minutes. The fight was between two rival groups and was fought using sharp weapons, bats, and sticks. Also, there was a fire that was started in a storage room. One side of the fight was led by a member of the notorious Zetas drug cartel, Juan Pedro Zaldivar Farias. The other side of the fight was led by Jorge Ivan Hernandez Cantu. All the people that were killed were male prisoners and five that were injured were in critical condition. So far, fourty of the fourty-nine prisoners have been identified. Demanding information, a crowd of the prisoner’s relatives outside the jail blocked roads, threw sticks and rocks, and tried to open the main prison gate,

Intelligence Question: Is the southwest border law enforcement's biggest problem when trying to put an end to illegal drugs being smuggled into to US by Mexican cartels and does it lead to more violence?

The double standards which Mexican women forced to live under are social status and sex. Men controlled all aspects such as politic, economy, and cultural life. In the family, husband served as authority over his wife as same as they did over his "slave". The following is an instance from Castellanos's writing which can picture the women's status in the family " The year Modesta was married to Alberto were years of pain and hard work. True that when he was drunk, the bricklayer beat her, throwing in her face how Jorgito had abused her..." (p 550). This was true that patriarchy affected wealthy and poor women differently. Women who were born wealthy and in the upper class were just under the authority of their

One of the most relaxing places on earth is Mexico (Cabo San Lucas). In Cabo, there are many fun activities that you can do. Some of the many activities are swimming with dolphins, boating, ziplining, cruises, and they even have certain places where you can hold baby lions! When you're on a resort near the ocean, you will get to feel the cool ocean breeze on a warm soothing day. While you're there, why not take a swim in the wavy ocean or even an infinity pool?

Human and Drug trafficking are huge global problems and it affects millions or people, even if they do not know about it. Mexico’s drug and human trafficking are huge issues, and people tend to different methods in how the problems should be solved. However, the main reason in why these two things are such an issue is all because of money. They both bring in major profits and “benefits” into Mexico and those in charge of this industry, it also brings in revenue into the United States for those that a part of these two cartels. Both the Drug Cartel and those in power of the Human Trafficking concerns, keep this things going because of the politicians that are placed into power of their regions. Many people keep saying that they should fix what is happening; however the problem is much more difficult than that.

Since the Great War, America has always been accused of theft especially theft of land from Mexico. During the great wars, the United States of America sent troops to the southwest into the Mexican land. During the war, the Mexicans were forced down to the south (Greenberg & Shaffer, 2012). The American troops settled there and after the war, all the land remained the property of America. After the war, some portion of Mexico was given back to the Mexicans and the misplaced Mexican citizens were forced to change citizenship and became Americans. What we always try to find out is whether the American grabbed the land from Mexico or are the Mexicans comfortable staying in the United States of America.

For the reasons previously stated such as, stealing land, slavery, and breaking the rules in general, America is staying put at not justified.The United States were not being very reasonable when making claims about Mexico. American settlers did not want to follow Mexico’s guidelines when it came to life in Texas. This war brought many to believe that one was right while the other was wrong, but that wasn’t the case. Mexico and America both put into making this war happen, and no one was right or wrong. It is just how each country interprets it. By learning about what happened in this war, one can learn how each side had a different perspective, and those perspectives can change how a whole country sees the situation. It can take a small thing

Having information and access to family planning, abortion services, maternal and child health (such as knowing what to do after giving birth) and/or preventing and treating diseases to anyone and everyone should be essential because this type of aid can help with the rapid population growth. If women were able to control when they wanted to give birth and how many children they wanted to give birth to, that would be a game changer in trying to stop hurting the environment. For some time, there was access to all that information, specifically in poorer countries and third world countries because NGOs received funding from the government, corporations, foundations and even individual donations to be able to offer these kinds of services at little to no cost. These services help

Therefore, the inability of the family to have their detention reviewed by a court violated article 9(4). The Human Rights Committee said that domestic review of the lawfulness of detention ought to include deliberation of Australia’s obligations under the ICCPR. The Human Rights Council found an added breach of article 2(3) (the right to an effective remedy), despite this breach not being affirmed explicitly by “A”. Australia rejected the Human Rights Committee’s interpretation of the Covenant and declined to compensate the “A” family. The Human Rights Council has deemed this response from the State Party unsatisfactory.

Colombia’s stance on human rights is still a work in progress. Many people such as rights advocates Colombia’s stance on human rights is still a work in progress. Many people such as rights advocates continue to be attacked. More than 110 cases have been committed from the year 2009 and up. Human rights defenders are being attacked in such a way that the Interior Minister of Colombia is in charge of a protection program that protects them (World Report 2015: Colombia, 2015). The president of Colombia made a statement that the assistance from the U.S. is very effective in the fight against human rights and drug trafficking. The U.S. secretary of State John Kerry gave great accolades on how the country of Colombia is becoming a stabilized institution

Over the past years, Mexico has experienced extreme changes due to the violent drug wars. Violence has presented itself in every neighborhood, every street corner, and even in the schools. Chalk outlines are seen drawn on various streets of homicide scenes. Thousands of people have lost their lives in the hands of drug traffickers. Life itself in Mexico, has taken a change for the worse. One may ask what the reasons are for this wave of violence. The most logical answer, of course, is to blame the criminals. It is the drug lords who are smuggling, transporting, and selling these drugs. They should be the ones held responsible, right? The answer to this question is deeply rooted in the history of corruption in the Mexican Government. The
