Mexicans fed up with violence | PRI's The World: "The expansion of Mexico’s drug war has many Mexicans worried about their country, and their personal safety.
And increasingly, they’re speaking out against the violence. ...
Antonio Cerezo is a member of a human rights group that has been documenting cases of forced disappearances. He said that fear can sometimes prevent people from going public with their cases or attending a demonstration against the government’s militarization policy.
“While I respect an individual’s personal decisions, I tell anyone who’s hesitant to speak that in Mexico’s current militarized climate, the violence touches everybody, even the silent,” Cerezo said.
And that may be why more and more ordinary Mexicans are starting to look for ways, however small, to speak out against it."
