We are seriously thinking of buying a retirement abode down in state Jalisco Mexico. They are trying in earnest to control the drug cartels. Over a 1000 Mexican military have lost their lives in the last year trying to put a stop to this drug violence.

IMHO Kendall's statement is correct ... The U.S. sells the weapons to the Mexican Cartels ... the Cartels in turn makes a very large amount of $$dollars$$ from the never ending thirsty demand for the drugs up in the U.S. and Canada. As long as this market exists, the gangsters will thrive unfortunately.

So ... should we care ... yes, because our drug tolerant society is partly responsible for this shameful violence.
