We the undersigned, endorse the following petition:
Demand Justice: Hundreds of Women Killed & Missing in Mexico!
Target: ; ; ; Ambassador Juan José Bremer
Sponsor: Amnesty International USA

Since 1993, over 370 women have been killed or have "disappeared" in Ciudad Juárez and Chihuahua, Mexico. Many of the victims were raped and mutilated.

To date, the Mexican authorities have been slow to act in response to the horrifying pattern of violence that has become commonplace in Juarez and Chihuahua.

The International Community is gravely concerned about the safety of the women of Chihuahua. Please join Amnesty International in its efforts to persuade the Mexican authorities to take action now before the lives of any more women are lost. We must all urge the Mexican Authorities to protect its citizens.!

Sign this petition to the Mexican Ambassador to the United States. The message must be clear: violence against women must be tackled at its roots. All instances of it must be thoroughly investigated, those responsible brought to justice, and steps must be taken to address the causes of women's vulnerability to violence. SIGN NOW!

By signing you will receive other urgent appeals about this and related issues. Your signature also generates a $1 donation to Amnesty International. Photo by Amnesty International.

Petitions such as this will bring awareness and ensure the government cannot claim ignorance.

In This particular part of Mexico, women that dare step out of their economic misery (and the role that has been imposed) and decide to earn a living on their own, end up bitchified, tortured, raped and murdered by men. And they dare say the macho culture died a long time ago.

Demand Justice: Hundreds of Women Killed & Missing in Mexico!


Your Excellency,

Since 1993, over 370 women have been killed and "disappeared" in Ciudad Juárez and Chihuahua, Mexico. Amnesty International has expressed its dissatisfaction with the response to date from Mexican authorities, and has expressed doubt about the commitment of authorities to end the horrifying pattern of violence that has become commonplace in Juárez.

Ambassador Bremer, we call on the government of Mexico to fully and promptly investigate the deaths and "disappearances" of hundreds of young women in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, and provide protection and justice for all in that community. All instances of violence must be thoroughly investigated and its perpetrators brought to justice, and steps must be taken to address the causes of women's vulnerability to violence.

Thank you,
The Undersigned

BB, it doesn't mention whether or not these women are AMERICAN. Would you know?

Amnesty International:
Is this petition for American women or the sovereign nation of Mexico?
Are you sending this message to every nation? If so send it to Vincenti
Fox and the government of Mexico. We have had to pay out so much
money to sustain illegals that we don't have any more. Sorry for your
plight

This is all I could get. I hate that when they don't tell you what country they are from. It's like one big secret.
I understand now why they wanted to pass the CLEAR ACT. That would have made it so EVERY CRIME is coordinated by all agencies to mention illegal alien as part of the structure, from police offices, to the FBI, and INTL Agencies. This act, I think, flopped back in 2003, because YOU KNOW, it wasn't fair to the LaRaza type groups.

Somewhere I have some very negative information on AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL. Their connections are, shall we say, not pro AMERICAN. If memory serves, they run very deep to NGOs that are communist backed.
