If it were true that during the war of the Guatemalan National Revolutionary Unit, between 1960 and 1996, killing more than 200,000 people; That would yield a daily average of about 15 victims. That is, 4 fatalities less than 19 currently being reported.
course who have read Guatemala, History silenced by Carlos Sabino have many reservations about the magic figure of 200,000, but still serves to put in perspective what are dramatic insecurity, impunity and lack of justice in Guatemala, 2010.
Many of these deaths, of course, be avoided if eliminated the criminalization of drugs, political phenomenon that is the context for reprehensible acts as shooting last Saturday at dawn.
