The surge in drug violence is just another wave caused by the stupid drug war waged by both the U.S. and Mexican governments and others too. Who is so stupid as to not see these people are patting themselves on the back gluing together a vase they keep breaking and gluing together in an endless cycle.

The Mexican people most of all I hope start arming and training themselves against both the insane drug gangs and the corrupt government forces. Every town needs to build a wall and guard it with trained, armed men.

Sounds like you would also support the U.S. 2nd Amendment guaranteeing the right of citizens to bear arms, and build a secure wall on the southern border.

Since when do the good guys always win? Cartels have been running Mexico for years.

I very much do. What I don't support is the way my country has interpreted and administered the right, which is to create an almost totally unregulated free-for-all that would make even people from the actual wild west cringe.

and build a secure wall on the southern border.

Towns make good analogies for countries for basic theory, but people like you seem to think they are actually equivalent.

No wall that big is ever going to be "secure" either.

But of course the major point of my post was ending the drug war of the criminal federal governments' and I wonder why you focused on the other part of the post.

Looks like the other cartel got a massive job promotion.

Nice gesture, but it’ll never happen.

Oh gee giving el Chapo a gazillion year sentence didn't stop the violence?

Maybe they should legalize and tax drugs.

But the Dems keep telling us walls dont work.

Spend billions on trying to stop the drug industry, or

make billions by taxing the drugs that are going to come in anyway
