Killing at Juarez

This weekend another heinous event happened at Juarez. In an innocent birthday party of a 14 year old teenager, some bandits went and killed most of the teenagers attending the party and left others injured. Pregnant ladies were also killed and it was all because they were looking for one guy. I don't know how a human being can be so destructive as to kill innocent people that has never caused any harm. This were children who were barely enjoying life and now they are dead. Juarez is a really dangerous place and has no security. Many events show that innocent people are being killed even though they are not involved in a cartel or drug dealing. Juarez is being controlled by drug dealers and authority does not exist. I don't know how peace can come back to Juarez because the police and government who are the ones that suppose to protect civilians are involved in corruption. Wealth and power is the main reason for all the disasters going on. The respectable authorities are hiding themselves for the sake of their family, so there is no balance. Is unbelievable how all the deaths have become "normal" because we hear of them everyday. I really don't find a solution to the violence at Juarez. Some say that is necessary to kill all drug dealers in order for peace to rise, but we know that is almost impossible for that to happen.
Is really scary to think that we live right next to all that danger. All that violence will become a civil war which eventually will lead for other countries to get involved (US) and maybe that way it can end. All the military from Mexico being sent to Juarez seem not to work. I think the government of Mexico have not tried enough in order to put a stop to the violence.
