Editor’s note: Click through to read the paragraph on registering and fingerprinting cell phone users. Not surprisingly, the Mexican government is exploiting the bloody turf war between drug cartels to foist draconian laws on the Mexican people. It should be noted that the drug cartel business in Mexico is highly profitable for the banksters who engage in wholesale money laundering. In the late 1990s, several Mexican banks were charged with money laundering drug profits, including Banca Confia, owned by Citibank. It is also a demonstrated fact that the CIA has been involved in the Latin America drug trade for decades (see The CIA Drug ConnectionIs as Old as the Agency).
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s Congress on Tuesday voted to broaden police powers, allowing law enforcement agencies to use undercover agents and taped conversations as evidence in a bid to help them fight increasingly bloody drug cartels.
The reforms, which were approved earlier by the Senate, are backed by President Felipe Calderon and come as Mexico is shaken by organized-crime violence that has claimed almost 5,400 lives so far this year, more than double the death toll from the same period of 2007.
They allow taped conversations to be used in court if submitted as evidence by one of the parties in the conversation, and let police request search warrants by e-mail or by telephone calls to judges rather than exclusively in writing, according to a Congressional statement.
The changes also permit undercover agents.
Many Mexican detectives currently operate in plain clothes, but the new measure would let them keep their identities secret in legal proceedings and be identified by a numerical code known only to superiors.
Drug gangs have increasingly targeted police officials for assassination in recent years.
The reforms include some safeguards meant to prevent police from abusing their powers, including one requiring that officers quickly register all detentions. Under current law, they have up to two days to present a suspect before a judge.

Hi no 4, just follow link to the article. Here it is:
“Also Tuesday, the Senate voted to create a registry of cell phone owners to combat kidnappings and extortions in which gangs often use untraceable mobile phones to make ransom demands.
“Telecoms would be required to ask purchasers of cell phones or phone memory chips for their names, addresses and fingerprints, and to turn that information over to investigators if requested”

Heart of the Article:
“Also Tuesday, the Senate voted to create a registry of cell phone owners to combat kidnappings and extortions in which gangs often use untraceable mobile phones to make ransom demands.
Telecoms would be required to ask purchasers of cell phones or phone memory chips for their names, addresses and fingerprints, and to turn that information over to investigators if requested.”

Um, yeah, don’t see that working.
They may try to fingerprint cell phone users (something that requires immense resources; as fingerprint machines and the documentation level, PLUS the police force it takes to monitor phone calls are just SO much bigger than cell phone companies themselves) but it will never work.
Plus, this is Mexico. If it isn’t soccer, I just don’t see them pulling this off without outside help. Their infrastructure is crap. They are dying under the drug war; just imagine trying to use intelligence and monitor it’s content.
If they succeed; those streetside vendors will go broke. Their economy will suffer; and they will poorer than before. Or; drug trade will just be more local; as the trade of drugs predates the mass use of cell phones.
If they legalized the drugs; they wouldn’t have any of the issues they are having; but they bend to US regulators and political elites; thus ruining their own economies. If they just made the drugs legal and corporate; they would be a huge source of tax revenue.
It’s pretty obvious why the war will never work: http://mediacondom.com/?p=431#more-431

The problem is not the drugs, the problem (regarding the cellphones) are the abductions, the kidnappings and all the killings (because like 90% of the kidnappings lead to fatalities), and there is no control of the cell phones, no caller ID on some companies like Nextel, they’re anonimous calls, and some criminals are using this kidnappings fever to do frauds and extorsions (they lie for money).
December 12th, 2008 at 10:57 am
And they’re not kidnapping the richier.. now they’re kidnapping any kind of person, even poors. For puny amounts of money (lets say $200 dollars), they kidnap you and kill you.
December 12th, 2008 at 11:10 am
So, if you finger-print cell phone users, criminals will not be able to kidnap people or sell drugs? How does that work?
What idiot criminal uses his own cell phone to make ransom demands or set up cop killer operations? And which idiot criminal will use his phone to set up drug deals if he has been finger printed to get his phone?
What’s next? Laws that demand people be asked if they have committed these crimes? I’m sure that would work just as good. But what is being done to stop the GOVERNMENT BACKED drug trade? What is being done to stop the GOVERNMENT BACKED sex slave trade? What is being done to secure the borders that drugs and sex slaves pass over? Oh yea, NOTHING!!!

Great now all they have to do is k”ll a passerby and steal their phone. Another great government idea for waste of money and time.

This is what is required to secure our sovereignty from the political or corporate elite who have been conspiring for decades to bring about a catastrophe that would destroy our great nation. If you value the rights you posses as a Free citizen of the US, then it is your patriotic duty to sign this amendment.

Here in Mexico, we already have to give our fingerprints to get a voting ID card -which is pretty much indispensable for any transaction- or a driving licenese.
You see, we’re at the vanguard of the NWO
Mexicans, the perfect guinea pigs…
