Well, I guess things could be worse in America.

So far, 30 political candidates have been killed in the 2024 Mexican election cycle.

Last Friday, Noe Ramos Ferretiz, the mayor of Ciudad Mante, Tamaulipas, was walking the streets on the south side of his city trying to build up support for his reelection bid. A man walked up to him and stabbed him several times, leaving him on the ground in a pool of blood. Ramos was a candidate for the National Action Party (PAN), an opposition party to MORENA. The MORENA Party is the party of the current governor, Americo Villarreal, and Mexico’s President, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

Over the weekend, authorities were able to capture the man believed to have stabbed Ramos. A motive for the killing has not been released. Ramos made headlines in Mexico when he claimed that government officials were refusing to address the spread of the Gulf Cartel into the region and that the cartel had started to extort local farmers with complete impunity.

Yeah, apparently opposing the cartels and running for public office is a dangerous plan in certain parts of Mexico.

This is just one of the latest politicians killed during their campaigns. The body of a mayoral candidate, Alberto Antonio Garcia, was discovered over the weekend in Oaxaca as well.

Garcia was kidnapped along with his wife and tortured before the kidnappers killed him, sparing his wife’s life.

Garcia was a member of the Morena Party.

These stats are totally insane. The violence is coming from all sides.

According to the NGO Laboratorio Electoral, since the start of the electoral cycle on June 4, 2023, to April 19, 2024, there have been 174 cases of electoral violence, including 57 murders (30 candidates), 11 kidnappings, 29 attempted killings, and 77 threats. The stats point to the current election cycle being one of the bloodiest in recent history despite claims made by Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador that political violence has decreased or stopped.

Lord, have mercy!

What do you think will happen if we continue to let this, and the criminal grudges of a hundred other nations like it, pour over our southern border??
