WE ASK THE WORLD TO KEEP AN EYE ON US TODAY. On September 26, 2014, 43 students from the Raúl Isidro Burgos Rural Teachers College of Ayotzinapa went missing in Iguala, Guerrero, Mexico. According to official reports, they had travelled to Iguala that day to hold a protest for what they considered discriminatory hiring and funding practices by the government. During the journey the local police intercepted them and a confrontation ensued. Details of what happened during and after the clash remain unclear, but the official investigation concluded that once the students were in custody, they were handed over to the Guerreros Unidos crime syndicate and presumably killed.
Mexican authorities believe that Iguala mayor José Luis Abarca Velázquez and his wife María de los Ángeles Pineda Villa were the probable masterminds of the abduction. Both of them became fugitives after the incident along with the town’s police chief Felipe Flores Velásquez. The couple was arrested about a month later in Mexico City. The mass kidnapping of the students quickly snowballed into the biggest political and public security scandal Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto had faced in his administration. It led to massive protests all across Mexico, particularly in the state of Guerrero and Mexico City, and condemnations at a global scale.
A mass grave, initially believed to contain the charred bodies of 28 of the students, was discovered near Iguala on October 5, 2014. They had been tortured and, according to reports, burned alive, three gang members confessed to loading them on to trucks, murdering them at a landfill, burning their bodies and dumping their remains in a river. “The detainees pointed out that in this area they took the lives of the survivors and then they put them under the rubbish dump where they burnt the bodies.”They took shifts so that the fire lasted hours, using diesel, petrol, tires, plastic.” Subsequent reports raised the estimate of the number of found bodies to 34. On October 14, police announced that forensic tests had shown that none of the 28 bodies from the first mass grave corresponded to the missing students, but the same day four additional graves, with an unknown number of bodies, were discovered.
Many protesters in Mexico City carried handmade banners with the words Ya me cansé (“I’ve Had Enough” or “I’m Tired”), in reference to a comment made by Mexico’s attorney general, Jesús Murillo, at the end of the press conference on Friday. The phrase has been turned on its head to express public exhaustion with both the violence that has taken hold in many parts of Mexico, where organised criminal activity is protected by corrupt authorities, as well as the federal government’s failure to act against it, which many believe underpins the events in Iguala. Protesters also chanted: “It was the state”, in an effort to push home the message that the federal authorities have yet to accept the depth of the institutional crisis exposed by the apparent massacre.
Please
don’t believe when they say that the 43 missing students of Ayotzinapa were brutally murdered. The government has not presented any physical proofs. The parents of the missing boys have not accepted the government’s explanation, arguing that it is merely a strategy to shut them down. They demand the truth, the Mexican state is a criminal state, and it will do anything to shake this case off.
We demand that the truth about Mexico has to be told, our media is partial to our corrupt government, but we have social media and we have our streets, we will march, we will protest, we will not remain silent.
These 43 students are not the first ones and we know they won’t be the last ones. We are tired of a repressor, murderer and corrupt government that kills its own people. DON’T LEAVE US ALONE. WE COULD CHANGE. WE COULD SAVE LIVES, WE NEED EACH OTHER.
PLEASE SHARE OUR INFORMATION, OUR VIDEOS, OUR PLIGHT.
"WE WERE SEARCHING FOR 43 BUT WE FOUND HUNDRED, THOUSANDS, WITHOUT A FACE, WITHOUT AN IDENTITY."

i really don’t understand why there’s a debate on whether catcalling is flattering or not??? women don’t think it’s flattering. end of story. the fact that there are men that think they can decide how women feel about something is the dumbest thing i’ve ever heard?
all puppies report immediately to my bedroom for naptime and cuddles
STORY: On my way home from work, I stopped at Taco Bell for a quick bite to eat. I have a $50 bill and a $2 bill. I figure with the $2 bill, I can get something to eat and not have to worry about irritating anyone for trying to break a $50 bill. Me: ‘Hi, I’d like one seven-layer burrito please, to go.’ Server: ‘That’ll be $1.04. Eat in?’ Me: ‘No, it’s to go.’ At this point, I open my billfold and hand him the $2 bill. He looks at it kind of funny. Server: ‘Uh, hang on a sec, I’ll be right back.’ He goes to talk to his manager, who is still within my earshot. The following conversation occurs between the two of them: Server: ‘Hey, you ever see a $2 bill?’ Manager: ‘No. A what?’ Server: ‘A $2 bill. This guy just gave it to me…’ Manager: ‘Ask for something else. There’s no such thing as a $2 bill.’ Server: ‘Yeah, thought so.’ He comes back to me and says, ‘We don’t take these. Do you have anything else?’ Me: ‘Just this fifty. You don’t take $2 bills? Why? Server: ‘I don’t know.’ Me: ‘See here where it says legal tender?’ Server: ‘Yeah.’ Me: ‘So, why won’t you take it?’ Server: ‘Well, hang on a sec.’ He goes back to his manager, who has been watching me like I’m a shoplifter, and says to him, ‘He says I have to take it.’ Manager: ‘Doesn’t he have anything else?’ Server: ‘Yeah, a fifty. I’ll get it and you can open the safe and get change. Manager: ‘I’m not opening the safe with him in here.’ Server: ‘What should I do?’ Manager: ‘Tell him to come back later when he has real money.’ Server: ‘I can’t tell him that! You tell him.’ Manager: ‘Just tell him.’ Server: ‘No way! This is weird. I’m going in back. The manager approaches me and says, ‘I’m sorry, but we don’t take big bills this time of night.’ Me: ‘It’s only seven o’clock! Well then, here’s a two dollar bill.’ Manager: ‘We don’t take those, either.’ Me: ‘Why not?’ Manager: ‘I think you know why.’ Me: ‘No really, tell me why.’ Manager ‘Please leave before I call mall security.’ Me: ‘Excuse me?’ Manager: ‘Please leave before I call mall security.’ Me: ‘What on earth for?’ Manager: ‘Please, sir..’ Me: ‘Uh, go ahead, call them.’ Manager: ‘Would you please just leave?’ Me: ‘No.’ Manager: ‘Fine — have it your way then.’ Me: ‘Hey, that’s Burger King, isn’t it?’ At this point, he backs away from me and calls mall security on the phone around the corner. I have two people staring at me from the dining area, and I begin laughing out loud, just for effect. A few minutes later this 45-year-oldish guy comes in. Guard: ‘Yeah, Mike, what’s up?’ Manager (whispering): ‘This guy is trying to give me some (pause) funny money.’ Guard: ‘No kidding! What?’ Manager: ‘Get this. A two dollar bill.’ Guard (incredulous): ‘Why would a guy fake a two dollar bill?’ Manager: ‘I don’t know. He’s kinda weird. He says the only other thing he has is a fifty.’ Guard: ‘Oh, so the fifty’s fake!’ Manager: ‘No, the two dollar bill is.’ Guard: ‘Why would he fake a two dollar bill?’ Manager : ‘I don’t know! Can you talk to him, and get him out of here?’ Guard: ‘Yeah.’ Security Guard walks over to me and…… Guard: ‘Mike here tells me you have some fake bills you’re trying to use.’ Me: ‘Uh, no.’ Guard: ‘Lemme see ‘em.’ Me: ‘Why?’ Guard: ‘Do you want me to get the cops in here?’ At this point I’m ready to say, ‘Sure, please!’ but I want to eat, so I say, ‘I’m just trying to buy a burrito and pay for it with this two dollar bill. I put the bill up near his face, and he flinches like I’m taking a swing at him. He takes the bill turns it over a few times in his hands, and he says, Guard: ‘Hey, Mike, what’s wrong with this bill?’ Manager: ‘It’s fake.’ Guard: ‘It doesn’t look fake to me.’ Manager: ‘But it’s a two dollar bill.’ Guard: ‘Yeah? ‘ Manager: ‘Well, there’s no such thing, is there?’ The security guard and I both look at him like he’s an idiot and it dawns on the guy that he has no clue and is an idiot. So, it turns out that my burrito was free, and he threw in a small drink and some of those cinnamon thingies, too. Made me want to get a whole stack of two dollar bills just to see what happens when I try to buy stuff.
Ah yes, the amusement of fucking with minimum wage staff who are just trying to do their jobs by paying with money that, while technically legal tender, is so rare that it’s basically a collector’s item, then playing dumb when they react in entirely reasonable ways.
I don’t get the impression that the guy is fucking with anyone, really. He went to spend money, got challenged, threatened with security, called the person out on the threat, proved to security that he wasn’t doing anything wrong. The manager didn’t believe it was real. The manager refused to take the fifty, as well. He had two options.
I’m all for not fucking with min wage workers, just because. This didn’t come across that way.
I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and presume you’re not really familiar with current US currency: $2 bills are only technically in circulation. Less than 1% of all paper money printed is $2 bills. It is not only entirely possible but absolutely common for citizens to live an entire lifetime without ever coming into contact with one.
If you do come into contact with one, it’s the kind of thing you stick in a casual collection or a scrap book, like a steel penny or a misprint coin. It’s an oddity.
If you’re trying to use it to buy fast food? You know. Damned well. What you are doing.
The most common way to get your hands on $2 bills is to request them from a bank or order them from the mint.
Further, if this was a legitimate attempt to spend money, the OP would probably have been more open in explaining what $2 bills are and where they got it. I have a $2 bill that was given to me as payment at a craft fair when I was fourteen or so, and the man who handed it to me had a whole little history lesson about them and told me that they were good luck.
This is a story of someone who is CLEARLY fucking with minwage workers by pretending that the existence and circulation of $2 bills is common knowledge and should broker no comment, and it’s ‘funny’ because ‘ha ha these workers are too stupid to know that $2 bills are legitimate US currency!’
(also it probably is a hoax story but that’s beside the point)
ALSO, there’s the simple fact that the story ends with “Made me want to get a whole stack of two dollar bills just to see what happens when I try to buy stuff”.
Not, “That is the LAST time I try to use a $2 bill at a fast food restaurant!” Or even, “The next time the bank tries to give me a $2 bill, I’m going to tell them I don’t want it!” No, OP’s sentiment seem to be “I thought it was really funny to watch these morons scramble, and I wound up getting free stuff out of it. I wanna try this at other places!”
In the three or four years I worked retail, I think I only encountered a $2 bill ONCE, and the person who gave it to me asked me point-blank, “Is it okay if I pay with this?” Like, he understood that we might not want a $2 dollar bill in the drawer for whatever reason, or if I was hesitant to accept it. One of my managers wound up swapping two dollars from her wallet with the $2 bill just because she wanted to take it home and show it to kids, since THEY’D never seen one before.
On a different note: if a retail worker is hesitant—or outright refuses—to accept a bill, and your response is to point out that the item bears the phrase “legal tender,” you’re an asshole. Because what, do you think counterfeiters leave that part out, or something? How is a bill saying “legal tender” in ANY WAY indicative that the bill is genuine? Someone pulled that shit with me once when I told him that managers had to verify $100 bills before I accepted them, and I said the guy, “Yes, but so did the fake $50 bill one of my coworkers accepted the other day.”
Okay I work at a music store and while it is not very often, I have had a good 2 or 3 handfuls of $2 bills come through in the time I have worked there. Yeah the guy in the story sounds a bit arrogant but acting like using $2 bills is a way to harass workers is stupid. It is a type of currency that is used and will continue to be used. I mean hell I have used them myself as well. But the fact that they are more rare than other tender is not an excuse. If you are working with money then you should know the types of legal tender and how to tell if they are actually fake.
$2 are not that fuckin rare -.-' I'm only 22 and I've come across them plenty

No Justice, No Peace (11.9.14): The State of Missouri has dedicated weapons of war to the city of Ferguson in anticipation of the grand jury decision for Michael Brown’s killer, Darren Wilson.
Does this look right to you? Military weapons ready to be used on US Citizens? You can be the most racist fuck in existence, if you think the same can’t happen to your town one day, you’re a bigger idiot than I can possibly fathom. Demand justice for the people of Ferguson! #staywoke #farfromover
