Honduras is a really nice county with a lot of natural resources and a lot of beautiful views and and landscapes. That is all worthless when it is the unsafest place to live in as of right now. It is sad to say this about my country that I love so much but it is the reality of my people and my family who are right now living in Honduras. "According to the UN Honduras has the highest murder rate in the world."This has been a really big social issue in Honduras. First, all of the murders took place by gang members and people that killed because of money, but later on it all got really bad and even people involved in politics killed people because of money and their own interests. 

Twenty-two journalist where killed over the past two years. These people where clearly murdered by powerful people that where involved in unmoral acts that wanted them to be quiet and not report on the truth that they knew. This goes against human rights and against the right to express freely and the right of being an independent human. It is inhuman to be killing people and destroying families just for the benefit of some people. 

Not only journalist have been killes by powerful people, more than 60 campesinos or farmers have been killed over the past 3 years because they have been against selling their land to the rich and powerful. It is shameful to know that people that are wellof and have a lot of money, become greedy and start to take away the little that poor people have in order for them to become richer. 

In the future I really want to return to my country and try to make a difference so we can be rich as a country again.
