What I write here is not speculation or a reconstruction by third parties: it is what I saw, experienced, and analyzed directly from the ground, with the experience of having led—as a citizen activist—marches against violence almost 20 years ago in Baja California and, on the other hand, of having coordinated as an authority the response to mass demonstrations. I do so with the sensitivity and understanding of someone who knows these dynamics firsthand.
