Quote of the Day: Crime and (trying to figure out the) punishment

“Crime is not just about prosecution; it's not just about justice.”

“I am addressing the criminals that I want to talk directly to. I know some of you are watching me.”

--Guatemalan presidential candidates Alvaro Colom and Otto Perez Molina, respectively, comment on crime during last night’s presidential debate.

Immigration was another hot topic highlighted during the debate with two of the candidates calling "heroes" the Guatemalan migrants that enter the U.S.

The election is set for September 9th and a poll released today has Colom with a 3% lead over Perez Molina.
