Acapulco is Now Mexico's Murder Capital

1. I am a hospice nurse in Chicago who speaks Spanish. The things my patients and their families tell

me are horrifying. Children kidnapped and mutilated, drug lords running the town murdering at will.

No one has ever explained to me why Mexicans cannot be considered refugees. It doesn't make sense and it really angers me.

Chicago does have a lot of violence. We do have so many children and families that live in fear here. But, Illinois has about a third of the murder rate as the state of Guerrero Mexico there are several states in the USA that are higher than Illinois. We don't have the extortion and kidnappings and mutilations that happen on the scale of Mexico.

I'm glad that Washington Post is reporting on this and people really have to consider this when they are looking at the immigrant population from Mexico and also El Salvador and Guatemala.

It's horrific.
