Mexico the real Narco state

[chr0naut]

A Marine friend of mine once said, " We need to put our military on the southern borders and have them move south cleaning out the cartels and crooks. Maybe stop around the Panama canal which would be a real border we could defend." 

There are no doubt many Mexican nationals who would appreciate the helping hand... No not all as those who depend on the drug trade would not be happy. I met one of the body guards for some big wig in the Gulf Cartel; nice unassuming guy who exercised/ran every day and would not eat red meat??

The head of security for Los Zetas was a cousin of a girl I used to know. She grew up with him and said he was always very nice to the family. He had only been shot in the leg " just once " in all the years with Los Zetas ..

With the bought and paid for politicians and law enforcement on both sides of the border maybe my Marine friend way back when had the answer ? 

The Mexican Marine commander in Matamoros, Mexico  was receiving a monthly payment from one of the Cartels (long time ago so I do not remember which cartel it was only the were just about shutting Matamoros down.. If you drove a bus, owned a business, or anything else to include being a real estate agent  they wanted their share of your money... No pay and no life for you; they were always smart as all you have to do is kill a few and the rest get the idea..... So a new Cartel wanted to move into Matamoros and offered the Marine Major more monthly income if he would remove the current Cartel leadership.. Tony the Terrible was his name if I remember correctly so with two APCs one with a (I was told) Quad 50 cal machine gun; to me that is anti-aircraft fire power ??) and over 100 Mexican troops they hit Tony's hacienda killing him and a few of his pistoleros... Not all were killed as two escaped and went to Houston, Texas as they carried duel citizenship. 

Most people really have no idea just how strong and entrenched the Cartels and underworld of crime and dirty deeds are in the world. 

7 and 13 year old kids were killed execution style along with their mom and dad put in plastic bags and left knowing the smell would finally make someone notice.

The video was about crimes committed in Guatemala, not Mexico.

Argentina, Bolivia, Belize, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay, and Venezuela are all sovereign countries close to the USA, most of which have been linked with the USA's drug trade.

Add to them, the other countries further away, but heavily involved in drug trade with the USA; Afghanistan, The Bahamas, Burma (Myanmar), China, India, Laos and Pakistan.

The USA is the major nexus of the world illegal drug trade.

The Sinaloa Cartel is a Mexican criminal organisation based in Mexico.

It has nothing inherently to do with Muslims or Islam.

I said the Cartel's  and the Muslims. Not that the Muslims have much if anything to do with the Cartel's.

How many Muslims do you know who are soldiers of the left?

Or for that matter at all?

Islam is a religion followed by people with a wide range of political views.

Exactly Chronaut!
How about dealing with the usage problem in the USA and Canada?? 
Like any market, if no one is buying, the product goes away…

Simple economics. But instead we talk about trying to take out the “Corporation” that’s literally making a killing off of selling the product. How has that worked out so far? Ever?

It’s the corruption that is helping the “Corporation”. There was never a real war on drugs. Never. The same good old boys were slapping each other’s backs and laughing all the way to the bank while ol’ Nancy was telling everyone to “Just say no”… it’s a fucking joke.

Muslims are fairly strongly anti-alcohol and anti-drug.

Posting content from untrustworthy websites is not an answer to the question.

I can only assume you dont know any Muslims.

And that includes Ilhan Omar. 

Next.

Again, not an answer to any of the questions posed.

Just guff from a video platform, known to host spurious content, and with no moderation in place.

You dont know any muslims at all, which is now plainly clear...

And muslims have little to nothing to do with Mexico being a narco state.

Portugal, in 2001, changed the laws regarding drug use and possession, so now, drug use and possession of small, personal, doses is considered a health problem instead of a crime, and those caught with drugs are given a possibility of getting treatment for their addiction.
The result was a sharp decrease in drug related deaths, crimes and HIV contagion.

The problem didn't disappear, but is much easier to manage.

PS: where I live they had a methadone treatment centre, but they had to close it some 15 years ago because they didn't have any more patients. We used to have some drug addicts that were "helping" people park their cars, but they all disappeared with time. Drug sales and production is still a crime.
