Over the past three millennia, the civilized world has seen a whopping 240 years of peace. It seems we all pretty much suck. Warlords, drug kingpins, or just garden-variety thugs can make life a living hell for good folks who just want to go about their business. One need look no further than our neighbors to the south to find some simply spectacular examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-stupidity-of-youth\">The Stupidity of Youth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM-1024x583.jpg\" alt=\"meme of man with alcohol shrugging &quot;a lot of people go to college for 7 years&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-209701\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM-1024x583.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM-400x228.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM-150x85.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM-768x437.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-2.11.08\u202fPM.jpg 1156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">College students, particularly guys, are too immature to buy alcohol or own a gun yet we unleash them on the world with car keys and a credit card. What could possibly go wrong?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The son of a friend and his college chum had a long weekend several years ago and decided to go exploring Juarez, Mexico. These two guys just struck out on foot. They randomly wandered about seeing the sights and soaking up the culture. Before long, they were hopelessly lost.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These were the days before cell phones and GPS, and these two idiots lacked the foresight even to secure a map. Neither of them spoke Spanish, so asking directions became a challenge. In short order, they found themselves in a particularly sketchy part of a really sketchy town. The locals began eyeing them all hungry-like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-sketchiness-gets-even-sketchier\">The Sketchiness Gets Even Sketchier&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rounding a corner, the two American teenagers spotted a pair of uniformed Mexican cops. They made a beeline for the two law officers, the look of unfettered relief no doubt obvious on their faces. The policemen fortuitously spoke English. These two kids explained their predicament and requested directions back to the World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, one of the cops drew his weapon and demanded the two teens hand over their wallets and anything else of value they had on them. Dumbstruck, they wisely complied. When finally they made it out of Mexico, they had nothing but the clothes on their backs. Fortunately, these were the days when you could travel to Mexico and back without a passport. With the benefit of hindsight, it was likely a cheap lesson.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-war-zone\">The War Zone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front-770x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"mugshot of drug lord El Chapo\" class=\"wp-image-209700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front-770x1024.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front-226x300.jpeg 226w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front-113x150.jpeg 113w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front-768x1021.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Booking_photo_of_Joaquin_El_Chapo_Guzman_front.jpeg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This is El Chapo, arguably the most notorious Mexican drug lord of all time. He is currently 67 years old and serving life without parole plus 30 years at the ADX Florence Supermax prison in Colorado. Public domain.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, the murder rate in the United States was 5.7 per every 100,000 people. The historic peak of 10.2 was logged twice, once in 1980 and again in 1991. That\u2019s all honestly pretty horrible.&nbsp;Human beings are animals at heart, and ours is a violent nature. However, step over our border to the south and things get massively worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2018, there were 33,341 murders in Mexico. Four years later, the murder rate in Mexico was 25 per 100,000 citizens. The year before, it had been 28. Those are big numbers, but they are not inconsistent with the murder rates in other large Latin American nations. Most of this carnage can be attributed to the drug cartels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bloody-battles\">Bloody Battles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mexican government, with lots of help from us, has battled these monsters for literally decades. Killing and capturing drug kingpins is like some massive bloody game of Whack-A-Mole. As soon as one guy like Joaqu\u00edn Archivaldo Guzm\u00e1n Loera aka \u201cEl Chapo\u201d ends up being retired to an American Supermax prison, half a dozen rise up to take his place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wholesale earnings from the illicit drug trade in Mexico range between $13.6 and $49.4 billion per annum. That\u2019s enough money to fund a modest nation-state. With narco-dollars moving across the border on that scale, folks will do some seriously bad things to keep that cash flowing. That violence spills over to many other facets of Mexican life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the massive force-on-force exchanges between cartel sicarios and the Mexican government involving heavy machine guns and antitank weapons reliably make the news, a low-grade enthusiasm for lawlessness pervades much of Mexican society. Murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, extortion, carjacking, and sexual assault are markedly more common down there than is the case north of the border. In aggregate, this all simply conspires to make life hard for normal Mexicans. In 2013, one woman in Ciudad Juarez had had about enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-setting-of-diana-the-bus-huntress\">The Setting of Diana The Bus Huntress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-1024x679.jpeg\" alt=\"Ciudad Juarez\" class=\"wp-image-209690\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-1024x679.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-400x265.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-150x99.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-768x509.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline-1536x1018.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Ciudad_Juarez_skyline.jpeg 1975w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This is Ciudad Juarez in northern Mexico. It is a reliably violent place. (Wikipedia photo by Alejandro Rosales)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ciudad Juarez was once the most violent city in the world. In 2010, there were 3,500 murders for a population of around 2 million. It&#8217;s better now. However, back in 2013, Juarez was the Wild West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Folks gotta work. In a poor place like Ciudad Juarez, that often means taking public transportation. Lots of people work in the maquiladoras&#8211;foreign assembly plants that make products intended predominantly for America. Back in the summer of 2013, that entailed riding in American-surplus yellow school buses repurposed into a relatively crude public transportation system. Working-class Mexicans would take these buses to and from <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/hillarys-white-house-ground-zero-massive-attack-guns\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"diana-huntress-of-bus-drivers\" title=\"Diana: Huntress of Bus Drivers\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2612\">work every day<\/a>, just like working stiffs in much of the rest of the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there was a recurrent problem. Late in the evening when young women would take these buses home alone, the bus drivers had earned a reputation for exacting more than just bus fare for the trip. Sexual assault is depressingly common the world over, and it often goes unreported for a variety of reasons. Such crimes are notoriously hard to prosecute, particularly in places like Mexico where the integrity of Law Enforcement and the judiciary is not all it could be. In this particular place at this particular time, young women getting raped on buses by bus drivers had become fairly commonplace. The pressure of living in such a world can eventually become suffocating. In August of 2013, one woman decided to do something about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-killings\">The Killings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"569\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM-1024x569.jpg\" alt=\"graphic of a yellow school bus\" class=\"wp-image-209694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM-1024x569.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM-400x222.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM-150x83.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Screenshot-2024-11-24-at-1.47.20\u202fPM.jpg 1518w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The buses used on these routes in Ciudad Juarez back in 2013 were mostly US-surplus school buses repurposed into a mass transit system.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first hit was on the No. 4 bus. This beat-up old Bluebird serviced the shopworn center of Ciudad Juarez and followed a route to some lower-middle-class suburbs. In so doing it made its way past rundown strip malls along ill-maintained roads strewn with rubbish. On that first fateful morning, a middle-aged woman with blonde hair boarded the No 4 bus and rode for some fifteen minutes. As the bus stopped and folks got off, she gradually moved forward until she occupied one of the front seats. At the following stop, this unidentified woman stood up, produced a revolver, and shot the bus driver in the back of the head. She then calmly walked off the bus and melted into the crowd.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"922\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-922x1024.jpg\" alt=\"grainy police sketch of Diana\" class=\"wp-image-209696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-922x1024.jpg 922w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-270x300.jpg 270w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-135x150.jpg 135w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-768x853.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot-1383x1536.jpg 1383w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Mugshot.jpg 1394w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 922px) 100vw, 922px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This was the police sketch of Diana, the Huntress of Bus Drivers.

Witnesses assisted police sketch artists in coming up with a crude composite, but you know how that goes. Those pictures could typically pass for a quarter of the human species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cold-blooded murder of this bus driver shocked a place already inured to a great deal of violence. And then the following morning, the same thing happened again to a second driver on another bus. As she blew the second bus driver away, the woman reportedly said, \u201cYou guys think you\u2019re bad, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soon thereafter, several local news agencies received the same anonymous email explaining that these two killings were revenge for years of abuse perpetrated by bus drivers on young otherwise-defenseless women.
