When it Comes Down to Criticizing, It is Easy. To Praise Someone, However, is Difficult

I ask myself, why is it so easy to criticize someone and why is so difficult to praise them? In a debate I had with a well known columnist with regards to the 50,000 dead in Mexico due to drug trafficking violence, we had a disagreement about who the culprits were. If there were no consumers of drugs here in the U.S. then we would not have this violence in Mexico. The well known columnist tried to put the blame on President Felipe Calderon.

According to El Universal, a Mexican newspaper, the state of Nuevo Leon in Mexico confirms that the last 49 people were killed by the drug cartel Los Zetas. This group is responsible for most reason killings in the states of Veracruz, Jalisco, Michoacán and Nuevo Laredo in Nuevo Leon. The municipality of Cadereyta, Nuevo Leon has been used as a clandestine trench to bury the remains of the Golf cartel killed by the Zetas.

Based on forensic evidence, the dead’s ages ranged from 20 -30 years old. Where would we be now if President Calderon had not declared war on the Cartel’s leaders?

The United States as well as Mexico have not done enough to prevent the use of drugs or their control. These wars have been going on before Calderon came in as President. But no one knew they existed as frequent because they had never been brought out to the public. A few people affirmed that Calderon made a mistake by going after the Cartel’s leaders. This caused a war among cartels for control of the market. It is easy to criticize, talk and write but to do something to make this world you think twice before you do anything.

This criticism of Calderon confirms that the media is more interested in negative publicity that sells then positive information.

Why don’t they write or talk about all the positive things Calderon has done? In the past 12 years, people have been able to buy an automobile, buy an apartment, build thousands of miles of new roads, new hospitals, schools and many more things. Additionally, there is more freedom of speech.

Why can’t we see the two perspectives?
