It is because Mexico has such a poor social/economic structure..a structure that only benefits the rich..is why DTO's have grown to the point of being out of control. Even if your silly idea with regards to legalizing the manufacturing and distribution of narcotics (on a large scale) in Mexico was done, it would absolutely destroy political relations with the U.S. You think Mexico could survive the economic sanctions that would surely be put in place? Don't think so, without relations with the U.S.- Mexico is nothing..you know it and I know it and that fact is the exact reason why you hate the U.S. Your a hater like a lot of Mexicans on here, who blame the U.S. for all of Mexico's problems simply because it's easier to blame someone else rather than accept responsibility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-22492777777469941872011-08-29T10:40:03.834-06:002011-08-29T10:40:03.834-06:00I laugh every time I read some retard say send tro...I laugh every time I read some retard say send troops to Mexico.

That comment did'nt make sense.<br /><br />I don't know about the other border city crossings but from my own experience, Juarez, Nogales, and Tijuana are not that easy for the average joe to cross over drugs. You got agents who harrass you constantly, sniffing dogs, x-ray machines, car weight scales and cameras to deal with. Customs agents are a pain in the ass. Now, to cross over to Juarez you have to go through sheriffs, american and mexican immigration, car scales, mexican millitary and federal police check points.<br /><br />Mexico does decriminalize small amounts of drugs now. If you have an amount that is considered big enough for selling, then you are breaking the law. But it does'nt really matter. What matters is if the cop is an asshole or not.<br /><br />It is Mexico's responsibility to try to intercede the smuggling of arms into their country and to protect it's southern and northern borders. <br /><br />As far as the other stuff you said.....Come Again??JBLAZEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00743447589981240553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-35165178550754493702011-08-28T23:10:04.793-06:002011-08-28T23:10:04.793-06:00I think any american who is involved with foreign ...I think any american who is involved with foreign cartels should be charged with Treason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-2342281755905934732011-08-28T22:37:19.937-06:002011-08-28T22:37:19.937-06:00I don't think this guy is correct.

There is no turning back the clock. Corruption in the military, police and the political elite is endemic and if fully exposed, which full blown intervention from the US would inevitably do, would simply collapse the Mexican government and send the country into chaos. The cartels, while fractured, have evolved into enterprises that would quickly exploit the governments fall. (It's a no win situation for the US governent, why would they all but ignore the sky rocketing violence and near complete deterioration of security of the last 4 years in Mexico ? Becuase the US would have to step in and install a transitional authority if it collapesed and it would only serve to enforce global opinion of the US as an imperialist occupier) Suggesting a Europen style force like NATO step in to root out the cartels is a joke. Legalizing drugs in the US would only help minimally. Marijauna is the only drug the US would legalize and criminal enterprizes have become entrenched and would still have a market for Meth, Heroin and cocaine. The Mexican government has obviously settled on the only path that will allow them to continue enriching themselves while maintaining any semblance of authority. Chapo's Sinaloa group is the governments chosen benefactor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-89333220650520516162011-08-28T17:39:36.860-06:002011-08-28T17:39:36.860-06:00Tell Us Something we dont know!

Actually... there is no real reason other than US government pressure to do so. After all, does the US make much real effort to stop the flow of illegal arms into Mexico? No it doesn't. So why then does it become Mexico's task to somehow police for the US government inside its own Mexican borders? The US hardly does the same for Mexico when it comes to armaments.<br /><br />As for inside Mexico itself, the Mexican government needs to decriminalize drug use for Mexico's own citizens, treat the addicts medically, and then legally allow the transport of the drugs straight into the US without efforts to stop the flow by having Mexican police and military act as agents of the US Border Patrol. Let the US government itself run around and play cops and traffickers on its own soil if it so desires? But leave Mexico out of it! It is not Mexico's duty to do this work for the US government if American society as a whole remains stuck into trying to wage a militaristic and Prohibitionist war against multiple substances made criminal to use by the US government. If it were already doing os on the terms it forces the Mexican government to battle on in this stupid 'war, then the American people, too, would defect even faster than Mexicans want to.Ardentnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-10894694135052999862011-08-28T15:34:08.941-06:002011-08-28T15:34:08.941-06:00I find it rather amusing how gringos are calling M...I find it rather amusing how gringos are calling Mexico a "failed state".

It's a FACT that during the last 2 years more U.S. troops are dieing from suicides than by enemy gunfire. We're talking suicides in the HUNDREDS.
