I'm a Mexican citizen, living in Mexico, and from these postings one reality is very clear to me, one that every other person outside the US knows, that no matter how long and how hard the war against drug traffickers outside the US is carried on, as long as demand and consumption for these drugs is not put into perspective by the American people, each and every drug related death of a law enforcement agent, in any part of the world is completely useless.
We in Mexico are experiencing a war now, unlike any Americans have known on their streets, one that is claiming an average of 20 lives a day, and is disrupting the lives of every single law respecting person in Mexico, and knowing full well that this is caused in great part by the international drug cartels teeming up with local cartels to smuggle the drugs to the US. It???s very easy to criticize the Mexican government however corrupt it may be, for not making enough efforts to stop the traffickers before they get the drugs across the border, with the incredibly enormous costs, both human and economic, that it takes, and then see the US senators debate on putting their money where their mouth is??? footing a part of the bill thru the proposed ???plan merida???, which could help in a large part to equip Mexican forces against the drug cartels. It makes me wonder what would happen in the US if Mexican authorities simply take a more laid back approach to these drugs, like its been proposed on this blog, and not engage drug traffickers on their activities towards the US??? it would be very likely that the war we are know fighting would be transferred to your front yard???and believe me it is not a pretty picture, for your own sake take responsibility for your drug problems as we are trying to take care of our own.
