¡COMO MEXICO NO HAY DOS! The "Real Mexico" from transvestite wrestlers to machete-wielding naked farmers. History, culture, politics, economics, news and the general weirdness that usually floats down from the north.
Hey wait, participating in anti-war demonstrations or Occupy movements is a gateway drug to voting for Kenyan socialists who’ll impose shar’ia and take your guns away. Prostitution and alcoholism pale in comparison.
Funny, isn’t it, how student activism (agitation) is equated with drug addiction, gang fights, assault (purse snatching is assault?), junk food???, prostitution, etc.
Haven’t Mexico’s teachers’ colleges had a somewhat revolutionary bent, reinforcing the concepts of freedom?
It’s a great piece – one of those school handout type of things. There used to be a papeleria store in Merida where tons of these old illustrated sheets could be found: dinosaurs, social problems, math, history, and now, juvenile delinquency.
I’d frame that and hang it up, but no one said I had any design sense.

I do not see the junk food, if you are refering at the one in the bottom center one, the kids are getting high with cement and paint.
