EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – Police blame a new spate of violence on a fight among criminal organizations for control of crystal meth sales in Juarez, Mexico.

At least nine men and women were murdered between Thursday night and early Friday morning, Juarez officials said on Friday. The violence comes two weeks after the killings of 23 people in an 18-hour period that occurred in places where authorities alleged crystal meth was sold.

“What happened last night is regrettable,” said Juarez Municipal Public Safety Director Cesar Omar Muñoz. “We are analyzing what is happening. Twenty days ago, (the attacks) were in the morning, now it happened after 10 p.m. […] The issue of ‘crystal’ was a factor in the homicides last night.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
