CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) — Some 200 federal police officers assigned to fighting organized crime in this violent border city detained one of their superiors at gunpoint Saturday to protest alleged corruption.

The protesters complained that the commander, identified as Inspector Salomon Alarcon Olvera, had ordered the detention of another officer who had criticized him. They accused Alarcon of having links to drug cartels and participating in kidnappings, killings and extortion.

Just goes to show you how corrupt this whole crap is. Innocent babies, children, women, and men are being slaughtered because of greed. Hopefully, they will be able to get more information out of him and bring other top officials down.

Are you insane? You think that the police coruption you have seen on the news in america is any match for what is going on in Mexico?

There is no comparison. America has a handful of corrupt officers, individuals who, usually after years on the job, break and become the bad guy. Mexico is a whole nother story dude. I cannot beleive you would wish that kind of corruption to be in the US, or that kind of violent vigliantism and cartel violence to spill into the US. Damn.

Those federales are a perfect role model for all of us. We could all learn from what they did here. We must all remember that loyalty while in a uniform only goes so far. There comes a time when your loyalty might be tested because your conscience suffers from it. At that time, you must be courageous, and sacrifice your loyalty. My respect to them for doing that.

I don't believe MilzGatez was meaning it the way you are thinking it to be. I believe it was meant to mean that hopefully the justice slides over into America. I agree with this since there are American cops and government officials who are very corrupt using drug and sex trafficking for their own personal greed and power.
