Criminal organizations could gain power in these countries because their governments were weak and easily bought off. ]]> 2021-04-30 18:43:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1479583313 https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1489916437 The government avoided being honest with the people in Guatemala and made changes without the people knowing. Many native people do not read Spanish language and most were busy working to feed their families. Augie

They immigrate to the U.S. looking for opportunity and to live in a free society where they leave their corrupt governments. Those countries are led by corrupt people who take money and allow U.S. companies to take the resources and this leaves its people poor with nothing. Augie

If Americans were not buying drugs, then drugs would not be coming over here.-Augie   ]]> 2021-05-04 14:45:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1489938626 https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1494609550 Corrupt government are just countries that take money from the U.S and there essentials. The people who immigrated wanted a new life were they can be free.

They do have a big part of power for example they are the ones who gave the orders to send drugs. Also over all AMerica is the biggest consumer of cocaine. - Genevieve ]]> 2021-05-05 16:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1494657377 https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1494687130 I think it was a bit in fair how some Natives didn't know how to read or were to busy to be informed of what was going on. So Guatemala took advantage of this to just go ahead and make changes and also Carlo Castillo was mainly in power for government of Guatemala. - Genevieve ]]> 2021-05-05 16:36:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1494687130 4600340 https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1545209316 Carlo Castillo was put in power by the government so he could reverse the acts that gave land back to natives. Guatemala took advantage of it's people and raided their homes forcing them to leave to take their land the crops they've worked hard to harvest. They secretly enforces rules and made many unknown of what was happening which made it easier for them to take over. -Erin ]]> 2021-05-20 18:45:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1545209316 4600340 https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1545290278 With all the death, people wanted a way out and a place where some safety felt possible.

Now Latin America countries (mostly Guatemala, and Honduras) are the main spot for violence and crime due to the support of the two cartel rivals. With the drug industry growing, cartels were made and made known in Mexico where cocaine and other drugs were mainly being trafficked. The two gangs spread and claimed more land along Mexico making them more powerful and more people submissive in their involvement. -Erin ]]> 2021-05-20 19:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jocelyn_barrera/uzyotgw1m9860peh/wish/1545333193
