Mexico mayor tied to car and dragged along by angry locals

Eleven people have been arrested in southern Mexico after the mayor of their village was dragged out of his office, tied to a pick-up truck and dragged through the streets.

Police intervened to free Mayor Jorge Luis Escandón Hernández, who reportedly suffered no major injuries.

It was the second attack by farmers demanding that he fulfil his campaign promise to repair a local road.

Extra officers have been deployed to the village in Chiapas state.

Mayors and local politicians in Mexico are often targeted by drug gangs when they refuse to cooperate with their criminal schemes but it is less common for them to be attacked over their campaign promises.

Mr Escandón said he would press charges for abduction and attempted murder.

Video taken by bystanders outside the mayor's office showed a group of men pulling him out of the building and forcing him onto the back of the vehicle.

It's not the US where you can just lie your way into office several times without repercussions.

neither is like Canada where the elected leader preaches about being anti-hate speech, while hiding his Blackface past..

It's not the US where you can just lie your way into office several times without repercussions.

...but there were repercussions...

The lying Mayor got dragged out of his office and tied to a car.
Even though he wasn’t hurt he was publicly humiliated.

[HitRed]

Bull fighting out. Mayor Motorsports in!

[riskllama]

good on them farmers...

*polite clapping*

[KoolBak]

Hope ya don't get a nosebleed from the altitude of yer soapbox!

And it's not Canada that's simply an English province. I can make snotty, oversimplified, sweeping generalizations too.

America bad!!

It's good to see you agree.

That should have happened in several US cities a few times and probably Ottawa.

If we tied Justin to a moose that might be a warning for other actors thinking of trying to pull similar stunts that guy has. Unfortunately I suspect he's just going to be re-elected.

Just like his dad, he will continue to be a pain for Alberta and we will all say, "I never voted for him."

Too many people in the Middle East of Canuckistan love them. <sigh>

I mean this is how the people would deal with a lying leader 10,000years ago... so why is it no longer a valid process?

The threat of the guillotine might work wonders for our system.

[2dimes]

The guillotine might be a bit drastic for pretending to be woke but maybe you are referring to some mayors.

I wonder if everyone who is applauding these farmers would have the same attitude if it happened in America.. to a Black Mayor by White Farmers..

hmmmmm…????

[riskllama]

lol, a black mayor??? didn't the US learn their mistake after Marion Berry, NP?

yes, it is a thing that happens here in the US.. Black Mayors are very common … here... I guess that concept occurring in Canada is something you laugh at..

but geez Lambchop..
thanks for letting everyone know how you view Black People...
you are saying Black People are nothing but crack smoking degenerate criminals who will abuse power when they attain it..

Trudeau is rubbing his blackface off on you..

[riskllama]

if you say so, NP...

[mrswdk]

Apparently NP hates it when politicians are held to their word. I guess US-style democracy is perfect for him then!

So the OP was about Mexicans and a Mexican population.

Then the guy who complains that other people make everything about race comes in... makes it about race.

Interesting.

light the torches everyone.. Nomad asked a question and it involved something about someone's Race.
'we got him!!!!'


is it any different saying American Citizens would be doing something described in a news article describing what Mexican Citizens did..?


what Race are the people involved in the dragging of the Mayor.. ?
the Mayor has a Latino Name.. you can assume he is Latino
but what race are the Mexican Farmers who dragged him..?

I mean .. you think 'ASIAN' is a race.. do you also think Mexican is also a race.. ?
-->

Asian is a race.

[jimboston]

Asian is a race.

I am using the terms as commonly used in every day language in the USA.
If you don’t like that move.

... meanwhile it’s you who took an issue that has nothing to do with race, and then made it about race.

So who’s obsessed with race?

all I did was ask 1 question.. you seem obsessed with me asking the question... instead of just answering it..

and not sure what kind of people you live around.. but my community doesn't group everyone from an entire continent into a single race...

jimboston’s back with his neo-Nazi statements about how Sri Lankans, Koreans and Iranians are all the same to him.
