It is true that the videos most popular website Youtube has been very useful for millions of people. First it was a good site to hear music and watch the most recent videos, but later, it started to have more and more violent videos. How to forget when Sadam Jussain was sentenced to death and in hours hundreds of people were uploading the video that showed Jussain’s death.
Now it is very common to find street fights among teenagers, and what is more sad of all this, is the great quantity of videos that shows violence in school. When I saw for the first time in the news about this situation, I did not really give importance to it, but now I realize how this problem is. Also, it is becoming more often to see also terrible gunfights that involves deaths and hurt blooding people.
I know that this was not Youtube’s creator idea, and I am sure they do everything they can to keep this type of terrible videos out of their websites, but still, it is hard to watch the reality of this ugly world so close with this kind of uploads.
It is terrible that technology can bring us bad things like this ones, just think for a moment in the kids who navigate in the internet and find violence so easily, obviously they will not grown up normally, they could become violent, and all because some guys decided to put the “funny” video where they were hurting someone. This has to change, technology bring us good things but the reality is that is giving us more unnecessary and ugly things.

Violence in México: A problem for the US

As violence inscreased on Mexico, fear increased for the United States. A proof of this fear is that the Arizona governor, Jan Brewer, sent a letter to the White House asking for more federal resources at the border to stop human trafficking, drug trafficking and weapons. In this letter, Brewer pointed out the roads and uninhabited places in Arizona that have become the main steps or roads for illegal immigration, drug and arms trafficking.
When Barack Obama read the letter, 250 National Guard troops were sent to the task of Force Joint Counter Narco-Terrorism. But the force, actually only has 150 soldiers and military pilots of the National Guard, so they are still waiting for the troops to come so they can star working on it.
Pernsoally i think Mexico should be doing something about it too, because the violence is coming from our country i think our national forces are not strict enough or the thing is that they are very corrupt. Felipe Calderón must start working harder on this, but not only him but everyone to make this country less corrupt and more peaceful! .. I know Hillary Clinton came to Mexico to talk about it, and this things must not be forgoten, we should start working on it!.

Violence
A couple of days ago, I was watching a movie about a a group of people which were involved with the Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and were present in the assasination in the Ambassador Hotel, and whose lifes changed. But there was a moment, when in the movie Robert F. Kennedy was being translated to the ambulance, when a speech was being told. It was Robert Kennedy's speech, named the Mindless Menace of Violence. I was curious about it, so I started looking for it. After I found it, I listened to it a couple of times, and it made me reason about this global problem that is presented in almost every place on the planet: violence.
Violence has preseted since the start of civilizations, fighting for territory, resources, and hate. In many cases only to show power and provoke fear in other person, to proclaim theirselves mighty people, over others. We cannot blame those who live near violence, ad those who started, because the past has thought us that fighting is the way to get what you want, how dissapointing.
We have history to prevent us to do the same mistakes that others have made, but it doesn't seems that people have learn to be better, to respect others, and to live in peace like many people would want. We all have a choice, we're not forced to commit bad things, we can prefer to live an honest life, to be happy. Sadly, there many people who keep looking for it by hating others, by hurting, by taking lifes, by destroying any sign of peace that could present in them.
What right do we have to take someone's life, and keep our conscience clean. The victims are from every class, but also human beings, it's just terrible to live without knowing what would happen to us, but with knowing what can happen to us. In this way, we can never achieve peace, violence only brings violence. We are all a family, when we hate somebody, we are hating a brother, to look at them as aliens, as someone not welcome here. We learn to say no to others, to fear them, to hide from chances. We have to know that out lifes are too short, and to start living in peace with others, in a society made by respects and love for others, and stop making others suffer and filling theis heads with fear. Violence is the worst creation of men in history, and yet is something that we have seen since we have memory. Does it's really worth it to make others suffer, that humans keep on hating each others and fight without any intelligent reason. Let's give peace a chance in this world, let's accept others, let's think logically, and maybe for a moment, our fear will take a rest, and step out of our lifes.
