A mayor in Mexico ’s western state of Michoacan was shot dead in a plaza in front of dozens of people who had gathered for Day of the Dead festivities, authorities said.
Local politicians in Mexico are frequently victims of political and organized crime violence.
The mayor of the Uruapan municipality, Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, was gunned down Saturday night in the town’s historic center. He was rushed to a hospital, where he later died, according to state prosecutor Carlos Torres Piña.
I think we can safely call Mexico a ‘failed state’. I also think we can safely include it in the Turd World.
