A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

She said on social media some days or weeks before that if anything happens to her or her family, her ex-bf was to blame. And I think he is cartel. At least this is the info I read on other comments on different platforms.
First statement was said by a lot of different comments. Second was only from one other comment I saw.
Just watched the vid on insta. She looks right at the man not recognizing him so I assume it's a hit. Two shots I can see, one in the chest, one in the head, very professional.
I saw a blurred video of the killing and even with the blur it’s brutal. Looks like she takes one to the chest and as she reacts she gets hit again in the head at least once
Link?
You guys think this is the start of some "pop-culture disgust" killing spree? Like in God Bless America [2011]
Holy shiskabob! It just got fuckier and fuckier the more I read. I was like... Not on video.... Yes really while streaming. Then it was probably not a place I would visit.... No you've been for a few years.... OK but not where I've been to.....no, dude exactly that same community..... OK but she was probably fighting about something and accidentally.... Nah my dude, she was mid video doing her cute thing and an asshole fooled her and did her in point blank. Anyway go read for the details. Its fucked up.
But remember, against the narcos "hugs, not bullets", welcome to the México Lemmy keeps saying I lie about.
Mexico is beautiful to visit... If you can stop time or do the matrix bullet dodging thing. Otherwise its a flyover country full of lawlessness due to extreme poverty. I was one of those poor people, but Mexico has the extremely poor, the homeless poor, the working poor, the middle class poor, the ritchie poor and like five rich assholes that keep everyone else poor. If you ever get a chance to visit...don't. It might save your life.
Visited Mexico 3 times, starting in 3rd grade. Only time I felt unsafe was going through a Federales checkpoint and an officer walked up to the car with a submachine gun.
You're damn right about the poverty, but for the most part, people are nice, they just want to be, and let others be.
But what you gotta known is that feeling safe and being safe are two different things. And I agree on the people. People are nice, I got family there in several States which I will not mention but are the famous ones lol. One time I met someone from Coahuila... 1 time.
Some place not being safe is defined as greater than n rate of insert list of bad things per capita.
For most folks 100 in 100k murdered annually is pretty unsafe whereas 5 is pretty safe.
But even if it were 1000 in 100k the other 99k still living could argue its not that bad!
You basically can't go to almost any population center without what the civilized world considers unacceptable risk whereas I can stroll through the "bad" part of my city at 2AM and mostly risk seeing gross people doing drugs.
Mexico is objectively unsafe. Some parts of states are too like st Louis
Maybe get off your computer chair once in a while and actually go outside and visit these places you know absolutely nothing about. I just came back from Honduras for a few months. And guess what I'm still alive and well and it was one of the best, humbling trips I've ever taken and I'm hugely grateful for the experience. See that? You actually learn something when you travel, as opposed to being a toxic know-nothing online. If no one else already told you today, go fuck yourself and have a nice day.
I've been there. Last time my dad got kidnapped and beaten. Nice right? Flyover. All nice and beautiful as it used to be but now the narcos don't care if you're local or just visiting. I'm with you on how nice it is. But if you wanna go there you go. Me, I'm not gonna be showing up there unless someone takes my citizenship and deports me. Even then I'll ask to be deported to elsewhere... Not el Salvador hopefully.
Unsafe doesn't mean 100 incidence of death it means greater than tolerance levels of risk.
Why did you pick this post to talk like this? You don't even usually talk like this...
Because I can relate and I just lost a friend and the way she went is so screwed up.
When there's a murder in Mexico, the first guess is always cartels
Meanwhile, murder in America, and my first guess is elementary school.
And the second guess is cartels without motive, just havin fun
Police arrived at the scene around 18:30 local time (12:30 GMT)
that doesn't add up. did they mean 00:30 GMT?
Probably did -6 instead of +6
Yeah, they meant midnight GMT.
12:30 AM GMT 🤡
No suspect+no motive=femicide? Did I miss something?
Unless there's a gang relations or a spurned partner, the only explanation for this sort of thing is a rabid fan which kinda aligns with femicide.
