They focus on the ... ( 2 weeks ago by Mortonc3)

They focus on the drugs because it is a problem in reality. Just because a people have a beautiful culture doesn't mean they are not being oppressed. The people of Colombia are victims and people DO need to know.

I think its cute... ... ( 2 weeks ago by KaseyAkira)

I think its cute... At first they were called "Communist". NOW they're called "Terrorist". I guess being communist is out of fashion these days and if you really want to paint a bad guy you gotta stick with the times. "Communist" is like, SO 80s! Just a second, if I dress like a ditz and chew bubble gum while I say that, it might come closer to reflecting US foreign policy.

Because the film is ... ( 2 weeks ago by KaseyAkira)

Because the film is not so much about Columbia as it is about cocaine. We're not here to show the positive or negative side of your country - but cocaine is a serious problem. All the issues shown in the vid are not directed at Columbia, but are shown here because they are directly or indirectly tied in with the cocaine trade, which is the central problem. We only got to see 10 minutes of the vid, but the rest of it probably delves more into that issue.

"You have to have an armoured car in Colombia"... what rubbish, I've been to Bogota and it was fine...

First of all I want ... ( 1 week ago by muerto187sg)

First of all I want to apologize for my language towards you, I have been to colombia 6 times in my life as an adult (for work)and twice for pleasure, the longest I have been here ( because I am currently in Colombia) is this time, for about 2 years now on and off, so you could be partially right, but I get to see the dark side of Colombia on a first hand bases and it really is not that bad. I am an A.T.F agent.... I guess I just got upset over your comments, once again I apologize.

Thank you for your ... ( 1 week ago by muerto187sg)

Thank you for your responce, but I still feel that if it wasn't about Colombia and only about the Drug problem then maybe you should think about deleting Colombia from the title.. and adding some footage from other parts of the world.. like my back yard for example, So. California :) or New York...

1 they stopped using sand bags since 1998. 2 why is there INDIAN music in the background, colombia is not a poor country and its a white race. 3 the last centence is true, theres no "guerrilla" in colombia, that name is for a group of armed force that fights for the ppl against a comunist/dictator government, which Colombia never had or has, and they aren't fighting against the government, they are killing the ppl from the cities and small villages. proud to have ALVARO URIBE finishing them!

it's a shame when the regular Joe makes 200 dollars a month,the richest guy,Don Julio Mario Santo Domingo's fortune surpasses the 5 BBBBBillion dollars range.Colombia,like most of latin america was and is still being raped by Spain,the stinky spaniards letf us their culture in exchange for our richness and welbeing.Colombia's politics and finances are still mandated by the same group the spaniards left in power hundreds of years ago.there'll always be discontent when the majority are starving
