Mexican Student Massacre

Over the past 30 years there have been a lot of events that have had an impact on the development of crisis intervention. One that really sticks out is the Columbine High School massacre. This event occurred on April 20, 1999 in Littleton Colorado. “On this very sad

Students tweeted that during lockdowns students can never be serious. Although it was the first incident to happen this school year, Students were hoping that the lockdown would be taken seriously and not as a joke. A photo was posted on twitter of the possible suspect. A joke was made about the picture saying “If Young Metro don’t trust you…”.

The bodies were found throughout the building. Some students escaped by jumping out of the windows. (Hauser)

The question that will be investigated is, to what extent did the Tlatelolco Massacre affect Mexico politically and socially? To further analyze the question, the use of Sam Dillon’s article “Mexico City Journal; Anniversary of '68 Massacre Brings Facts to Light." was excellent due to the rich content that it contains as well as Patrick J. McDonnell’s article “1968 Massacre in Mexico Still Echoes across Nation: Activism: Killing of students just before Olympics radically changed country. And questions continue."

Veraza related that he was walking home from Morton East High School on 08/24/16 at 1500 hours and was confronted by three male subjects on the 5800 block of 13th Street wearing Morton East High School uniforms. Veraza related that one of the male offenders who was later identified as Escamilla, Alexis(M/W 09/08/00) told him that he was not going home today. Veraza related he ignored them and continued to walk home. Veraza related that the three subjects approached him again and related that two subjects held him and one of subjects was later identified as Jafar, Malik (M/W DOB03/08/00) held him

In later years, the Columbine High School Massacre reflected tales of adolescents captured by darkness where they took part in an evangelical youth movement (Pike 647). This movement caused an uproar in legislation involving church and state (Pike 647). The massacre also effected public school dress codes and behavior policies, and most importantly, shaped Americans’ reasoning about teens deviance and normality (Pike 647).

Mass shootings have become one of the most fearful events that could happen in elementary schools, high schools, and College campuses. These violent actions committed by a number of individuals have happened for many years and will continue happening unless prevented. Individuals like James Holmes opened fire in a Colorado movie theater, killing twelve individuals and injuring twenty, John Sawahri shot five students dead in Santa Monica College also injuring four individuals. However Eric Harris and Dylan Kleibold executed the most horrific act of school violence in United States History. These two individuals managed to take the lives of twelve students, a teacher and managed to take their own life in the process. This act of crime has spread through America, leaving no one safe.

Perry stated, that the problem to fixing the campus shooting is not being solved correctly instead the government is making the process for obtaining guns much easier. Perry’s argument is solid because, he includes a personal attack that he received from a past student. Also he talks about the new law that is about to take place, which allows students to carry firearms on campus. He could have included some of his colleague’s thoughts on the issue as well, so that the readers can get more first-hand perspectives on the student’s violent

Six months after the Columbine shooting in October, the sheriff's department agreed to share the evidence the have gathered. The killing was carefully planned, the boys put a small decoy bomb 3 miles away from the school in a field hoping to distract people from the events happening at the school. They got to the school at 11;15 with two duffel bags holding propane bombs. THe boys placed the bombs in the cafeteria and went back to their cars and waited. When the bombs didn’t go off as planned, they climbed to the top of the steps outside of the schools west entrance and started shooting. Once the two boys got back into the school hallways, they started throwing pipe bombs and shooting amnously. Once getting into the library, they shot at the

Luis Ramirez and his girlfriend are enjoying a quiet evening at Shenandoah Park on July 12, 2008, after hanging out with friends. That night the two ran into six drunk high school football players in the woods after leaving a party. The six men started to shout racial slurs toward the two, which later turned into a physical altercation, six against one. Derrick Donchak, one of the defendants, beat Ramirez with a thick piece of metal. At the same time, Donchak’s teammate continued to kick Ramirez in the head as he laid on the ground. As the beating continued, all six men screamed: “This is Shenandoah. This is America. Go back to Mexico.” Unfortunately, Ramirez died two days after, due to injuries sustained during the altercation (Lopez, 2012).

Freedom Riders: 1961 and the Struggle for Racial Justice. By Raymond Arsenault New York: Oxford University Press, 2006. In the book, Freedom Riders: 1961 and the Struggle for Racial Justice, historian Raymond Arsenault, writes about the six month between the spring and summer of 1961 where four hundred and fifty men and women rode segregated buses in the south. Their mission was to defy the non-enforcement of the Supreme Court decisions that ruled segregated public buses were unconstitutional, and how majority of white southerners did not observe these laws.

Several incidents of beatings were reported, sometimes with simple weapons, other times with weapons of mass destruction conducted by local citizens as the freedom riders passed through their city. Very often, “the cops were conspicuously absent when the blood began to flow” (The South 16). One particularly violent incident on May 14, 1961 occurred when someone threw a bomb into a window of an interstate bus. When the twelve passengers on the bus exited because of the smoke and flames, the waiting mob pulverize beat some of passengers up. The police arrested four men in conjunction with the bombing, yet the four men were only charged with “willful damage to vehicles in interstate commerce” (State is Warned 1). The fact that this incident was taken so lightly is appalling. Clearly these men should have been punished or convicted more severely. The hurt freedom riders were taken to the local hospital, and none were seriously injured.

On September 11, 2004, Rodolfo, his wife, and two young children were visiting a Culiacán shopping mall. While leaving the mall, escorted by police commander Pedro Pérez Lopez, the family was ambushed by members of Los Negros, assassins for the Sinaloa Cartel. Rodolfo and his wife were killed, the policeman survived.[2]

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
