Source, Wall Street Journal, aka "Fox News,"

It's a shame "Fox News" brought the WSJ.

What I want to see from the WSJ, is business news.

I want to know when the China trade war will end, and if the FED still plans to raise interest rates with a shaky stock market?

Are you in denial or what? Hundreds of individual stories.
More than a crisis - armageddon.

By ABC News
J U A R E Z, Mexico, Jan. 30, 2018
Someone is raping and killing the young women of Juarez, and leaving their bodies in the desert to rot. Hundreds of young women have disappeared from the Mexican border city since 1993 — many of them teenagers who came to Juarez to work in the town's foreign-owned factories, known as "maquilladoras." The official toll is 260 women killed since 1993, but local women's groups believe the actual number is more than 400.

Washington Post November 16, 2018
The family of a North Carolina teacher missing in a remote part of Mexico received the news Thursday that Patrick Braxton-Andrew was killed by drug cartel members in late October.
Since he was last seen Oct. 28 in Urique, a tiny village in the country’s Chihuahua state, Braxton-Andrew’s family has been in Mexico working with local and U.S. authorities to locate the 34-year-old Spanish teacher, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday.


New York Times June 5, 2018
MEXICO CITY — A federal court in Mexico ordered the government on Monday to investigate the 2014 disappearances of 43 college students again, but this time under the supervision of a truth commission to be led by the nation’s top human rights body and parents of the victims. … The disappearance of the students at a rural teacher-training college, who were abducted in the town of Iguala, Guerrero, by police officers working with criminal gangs, has become a symbol of the violence, corruption and impunity that plague Mexico. As their whereabouts is still a mystery

BBC News April 24, 2018
Three Mexican film students kidnapped last month in the western Jalisco state were later killed and their bodies dissolved in acid, local officials say. They say the male students, all in their 20s, were killed by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel gang, who likely confused them with rival gang members. Genetic remains of the missing students were found on a farm in recent days, the officials say. The students were kidnapped on 19 March in the town of Tonalá. … In January, three Italian men disappeared there, and are believed to have been handed over by local police to gangsters.

Wilderone, looking at the source, could refer to Chuckie too, and his motivations.

It's also not today's news, because the article was wrote two days ago, and a lot of this is rather old news.

Wilderone wrote: "More than a crisis - armageddon."

Kinda sensationalized, and biblical non-sense if you ask me.

Nothing that a stiff drink, can't take care of.

Now lets talk about the weather, something else we can't control.

I think possibly the most disturbing thing (now that we have all become somewhat inured to the daily murders in Mexico) is the alarming levels of vigilantism and lynching going on. Every day brings another story, from some part of Mexico. The Mexican people are fed up with inaction from their police and court systems.

Unfortunately, there are innocent persons being wrongly accused and lynched. With it's lack of freedom of an INDEPENDENT press, village rumors are acted upon with disastrous results.
