    Default Mexico's Drug Wars

    I love the Way Boston.com does these amazing photo series. This is like most I post there is some violent content but the real violent photos Boston.com makes you click a second link to open the photo.

    Wow. Some of those pictures are really chilling (thinking of #12, there's just something about a cross hanging above a dead body that's....slightly off). A great example of how photographs can "speak" to people, I think.

    Excellent find!

    To see the border between both states let me think about the fall of our Berlin wall. It is really depressing, that there are much more deviding walls in the world.
    And the other photos are showing the cruel realtiy in Mexico – it is hard to believe, that there are still tourists.
