I've lived in El Paso all of my life and I used to hang out in Juarez when I was younger.Regardless of the violence in Juarez, El Paso continues to be one of the SAFEST places in the country. I just think its funny how a wall brings an illusion of safety to some and others whom do not know much about what is really happening are quick to talk. I am proud of Mexico because those that are not criminals (fyi Americans are the #1 consumers of these drugs) are very family oriented, humble people that are simply trying to make a living but if anyone wants to detach themselves from what are world issues and point fingers I guarantee its going to bite us all in the ass.

people of el paso do not realize how potentially dangerous it is for them and their children in el paso. i feel a lot less safe when i go there. If only they knew what the rest of texas feels about these border towns. it sickens me the way these border town people have a casual view towards the violence in juarez.

I really enjoy that fact that anything negative about El Paso is always covered here, it is interesting. Very interesting, considering the violence here, the lack of an educational system, a poor criminal justice system and everything else that goes with feeling safer than even El Paso.
