Mexican Citizens Hold Politicians Accountable

[candyx]

Everyone makes jokes about Mexicans but when politicians don't keep promises they know just how to treat them. If we did the same to our elected offices the traffic would be unbearable .

Mayor in Mexico tied to a truck and dragged through streets for ‘failing to fulfill campaign promises’

Angry farmers in Mexico abducted the mayor of their village and dragged him through the streets after claiming he went back on key campaign promises.Police intervened to free Jorge Luis Escandón Hernández, who suffered no major injuries after the ordeal.

Sometimes ya gotta do the most basic, straightforward, of things, to get your point across. Good for them.

In a true 'government for the people, by the people', elected officials are just representatives. They serve as mediators and arbitrators, and nothing else. Not rulers. Not warlords. If they commit an infraction, they are treated in the same exact manner as a regular citizen will be treated if he/she does the same.

Kudos to these strong willed Mexican farmers. Let's hope the news of their actions, and earlier vigilante campaigns against both corrupt officials and cartel members go viral worldwide. A LOT of places in the world need a fucking Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday style cleansing.

"Suffered no major injuries." Sounds like the farmers were just playing around.

sounds like the farmers did everything perfect.

scared the shit out of the guy, no lasting bodily harm (this time) so the law may not escalate the charges, and if they ACTUALLY did it right, someone told him after they stopped " This is your one and only warning. Cross us again, and we'll strip you naked, hog tie your hands and feet, and tether you with 3 meters of chain behind a Chevy C10 driven by a boracho pendejo"

this way, the guy gets to go back and fix his errors. if they kill the guy or mame him up, they may have to do the same to his replacement.

no, i would judge these guys accomplished their goal in a very productive manner.
