Yeah, not a lot of corridos mention how many young soldiers cry for their moms while they die in their own shit and piss. They don’t sing songs (that I know of) for the mothers whose daughters were raped or disappeared.
They groom children soldiers to kill or be killed and it becomes normalized in some families and internalized and it only ever ends in tears and bloodshed.

I believe that is correct. Ovidio Guzman captured and El Neto killed while being captured, that’s a big W in my book.

It’s farther up in the thread but the actress escaped Weinstein 5 times and was blackballed so presumably that’s we didn’t have more of her in films.

I rewound the VHS like 5 times because I thought this was hilarious at the time! I’m so disturbed by reading about Weinstein and the abuse of power that represents. But, no, it probably wasn’t supposed to be as funny as it is, not many chuckles after that but Claire Forlani and Brad Pitt made it a great movie.

I’d say it depends on the bays you’re willing to sail into, sometimes beggars can’t be choosers; any port in the storm, I ain’t judging.

Yeah, this end of the world bingo card just keeps going and going, it’s depressing.

I mean, American police aren’t exactly known for their restraint when it comes to cop killers. Mexican police chasing the asshole who killed 19 guards and inmates in his escape and is a terror to your nation, I’d not need a nod from anybody to do my job in their shoes.
