I drove down to Ensenada this last weekend and had the best time. Drank with the locals, ate tons of good food and didn't see one head without a body. Am I missing something here?

My parents just called me and told me that there's been shoot outs, granades exploding and chases in the city. Then again they live in the border. God bless :-(

So fucking sad. I mean, I know that so many of those murdered were in the drug business, but it's sad because that was probably their only option or choice in life. They probably live every single day knowing they can die. And it will never stop. You'd have to burn the entire country to the ground to even get any of it to slow down.

These people are merely poor victims of something much bigger, controlled by the US.
Without a market to consume this stuff, there wouldn't be such issues.
I don't see any drugs for Alcohol, Tobacco or Coffee. Which are very powerful drugs.
How about you take some fucking responsibility for screwing up the world. Close the border to Mexico and stop selling Mexico guns and you will probably have a much peaceful place.
I wonder how the rest of the world would cope without cocaine though.
And let's also remember that cocaine in the way we snort it today was invented by our modern society – the US and Europe mostly.

I wonder how many people here actually supports Mexican drug business while being so conscious about not supporting non-fair trade coffee, produce etc...
Maybe there's not any here but I know people who consume about a pound of white powder a year while buying local produce because they believe every bit of effort makes an impact.- Nope. Never contributed anything to the cocaine trade. Consistently opposed it for years, in word and deed.mikotondria3
- It's so obviously one of the most evil enterprises in the world, from the plantation to the end-using twat who won't shut up.mikotondria3
- The fucking misery it causes all-round is so unconscionable, I'd give my life for this stuff to not exist.mikotondria3
- excellent point. and just because you only smoke weed doesn't get you off the hook.HijoDMaite

- I think the war in drugs is an excuse for stop the inmigration to the US...OBBTKN
- better a low intensity war out of your borders than intoOBBTKN
- America... stay out of the world's business. We're in trouble.. help America.ETM
- yeah once the US steps in, this gringo's moving the fuck out of Mexicomoldero

Very interesting article... http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/…
Just to make it clear I think Cocaine is fucking evil. There are 4 things the American Shamans used in their rituals, and cocaine is not one of them.
Marihuana, San Pedro, Peyote, Ayahuasca.I wonder what would happen if cocaine was made legal in Bolivia though. For a poor country, it might boost the tourism, get more money into the country and also if it would be legal they would have to list the ingredients in the packet - so you would know EXACTLY what you would be snorting.
- why is cocaine evil, on the same line do you think alcool and fags are?GeorgesII
- Having used coaine myself extensively, I am pretty confident it brings the worst out of you.clearThoughts

@ Georges
The U.S. has been trying to help for over 6 years now. The current Mexican Pres. is a conservative who has called out an all out Military war on the cartels with the help of the U.S.
The U.S. has helped with training of military personnel and federal police forces. The pentagon has even flown high altitude drones over Mexican skies which has helped to capture high ranking targets.
The cartels are running scared and under siege, this is what is causing so much violence. They are splitting up and fighting among each other for territory.
Some current setbacks and problems include, corruption within the Mexican military and the legislative system
Mexico's lawmakers need to radically change and adopt new strategies to combat existing policies that allow money laundering.
In other words they don't have the strength of the IRS' federal investigators to follow the money trails.
- that is clearly not help from the US. Because they know very well it won't stop it. It will sell arms though to all sides.clearThoughts
- yes there are reports of Mexican cartels setting up fronts here in the U.S. to buy then ship guns in to Mexico.HijoDMaite
- But no direct sales to Mexico. Weapons in Mexico are %100 percent ilegal. they must be bought through black marketHijoDMaite

can someone give me one solid reason why all drugs are not made legal? seems to me that if you want something it's pretty fucking easy to get it. Prohibition is doing nothing other than causing violence and death.
- Because people in charges are stupid cunts.ApeRobot
- pharmaceutical companies?
Government Spending?
War is considered good to the US?capn_ron - I agreedbloc
- The government actually makes more money with drugs being illegal.dbloc
- it's controlled dude - this is exactly how the bigger powers in the world want it to beclearThoughts
