        In this semester of spanish two I hope to accomplish quite a few things first and foremost learning to speak spanish better. Another one of the things that i want to do is to make new friends and have a good time in the class. I want to be able to conjugate vebs correctly and kno enough vocabulary to be able to hold a conersation.

internal problems

              I recently read an article that described the horrific gang violence that is taking place between the local and federal Goverment in Mexico. The drug cartels claim the violence with pride using it as a message to say "don't mess with us or we will kill you", and to be honest they are fairly honest in this claim,because they will kill you. That is why you must go on the defensive, when we invade a country we don't wait for a drive or more a group of police to me gunned down before we act, we identify the target and send a preemptive strike in an attempt to curve the violence. In the article the mexican official asked for outside help to sovle the problem but i dont see the point in it, if they don't start to solve it them selves they are a country not a child to be coddled The article stated that 5 senior police offciers were arrested due to an internal investigation; in my personal opinion which I'm sure many others share with me no peace will be reached in mexico until its law enforcement agencies can actually enforce the law. It isnt all there fault though in order for any goverment system to work the people have to be behind it and a lot of them need to grow a pair.
