Assignment One Grimmett

1. I find this article to be very disturbing because of the amount of people that get kidnapped in Mexico. I also think the things they do to the victims are gross. One man survived but had his fingers sliced off! I think its disturbing how people can do that to someone all for money. Also, how even some police can't be trusted. I wonder why so many police officers are involved in the kidnappings?

2. I have never been to Mexico but this article makes me wonder if i ever really want to go. The police would scare me because i wouldn't feel like i could trust any of them after reading this article. You're supposed to be able to rely on the police if something is wrong but if something bad were to happen down there i wouldn't know who to go to.

3. I think the attack on 9/11 is different from the fear the people are facing in Mexico. In Mexico they have to watch out for themselves everyday more than we do. With 9/11 it was scary at first but now there isn't much fear for the residents here in general. The fear in Mexico will never go away.
