About Our Site

When it comes to account for human rights violations in the United States; and we adopt for ourselves one standard and another one for violations in third world countries, we are condemning the victims in the US to a double punishment: On one side the system, (just by not acknowledging the truth about what is happening at home) will let the perpetrators get away time and time again with murder, assault, rape and other crimes, and in addition the victims will have to swallow the bitterness of not getting closure for the rest of their lives.

On the other hand, we stereotype the governments as well as the victims from third world countries by making sometimes unreasonable demands on their governments and by pitying the victims; things that do not necessarily help the cause of justice.

One typical example would be the Ciudad Juarez phenomena, where more than four hundred women have been murdered; some of them tortured and mutilated prior to being killed.

In the Ciudad Juarez case we have had the intervention of movie stars, amnesty International, US Congress people, asking the Mexican government to take care of the problem. Some people like Jane Fonda focus the problem from the gender factor perspective. They are there because the victims are women. What would it happen if most of the victims were men?

Other people approach the problem as if all of the killers were “Mexican”. So, did we already reach the conclusion that none of the killers come from El Paso?

Why does El Paso have the lowest murder rate in the border cities and possibly in the United States?

It is well known that most of the serials killers in the United States have a military background. It is entirely possible that some of these murders have been committed by military from El Paso, particularly from Fort Bliss, a military installation with a population of more than one hundred thousand people.

Therefore, by stereotyping crime in other countries we deny to see any kind of synergy between crime in the US and those countries.

Furthermore, all of these demonstrations of solidarity by movie stars and US Congress people show nothing else but royal ignorance about the crime of murder, not in the United States, but in the State of Texas alone.

Obviously, these people are not aware that:

San Antonio alone has more than 1300 unsolved murders, (with a good statistical chance that at least 70 % of victims are Hispanics and African American );

Fort Worth has more than 800 unsolved murders (again, with more than 70% of the victims being black and Hispanics)

The same pattern in Dallas with more than 2200 unsolved murders;

Houston has more than 3300 hundred unsolved murders.

The amount of unsolved murders in these 4 cities being more than 7000 unsolved murders.

Again, where is Jane Fonda (and all the US Congress people griping about what is going on Ciudad Juarez) when it comes to crime committed against humanity in the USA?.

This website was created to:

Promote awareness and move towards the elimination of stereotyping the concept of murder in other countries;

And, to provide a reliable source of information about crime in the USA, particularly in the State of Texas.

If our efforts can lead others to action in the cause of justice then, our purpose will be well served.
