Mexican Cartels Reach All Time Low

[Bithabus]

The problem is long before they OD or wear their body out and die, drug addict steal, kill and destroy to get money to buy the drugs they want... yes they don it now, but the numbers getting addicted would climb...

They do it now because the price of drugs is artificially inflated thanks to the black market. And you have no data to support your "more would become addicted claim". IMO fewer would become addicted.

By ignoring this warning, the travelers intentionally placed themselves in an environment known to be unsafe.

I was gonna say “Who made that rule” but as usual, you said it better.

Also heard a report this morning that this group was embattled for water and road rights with the cartel. Also that several members of the family have died in the past.

I don't like getting up early in the morning so I do it real slow

My gut feeling is there is more to this story than we are being told. Especially in regards to the men who were not around when this happened.

I agree, there is probably more to the story, but that part most likely increases the baseline risk equation instead of mitigating it.

The fucking monsters gunned down babies and children who had no choice in where they lived.

RIP little ones.

They increased the amount of heroin from five grams to nine grams as a misdemeanor in Seattle, it's only spiked the amount of junkies living in the street. Legalizing all drugs is just going to turn this nation into another shithole country.

Or it will put the gangs out of business.

At what cost? There's always going to be crime unless you legalize crime, and then you have anarchy.

Nope, that would not stop the cartels. They would still control production and sale. They would not just retire.
The mob flourished after prohibition and prior to drugs. Studying history shows this. Gun battles don't occur because the US does not tolerate them. And the gun battles of the 30's are exaggerated by Hollywood.

Au Contraire . We don't have open gun battles here because the peons are armed and dangerous. And outnumber the mob.

I think one can argue that this applies today at the southern border. By your logic we should also be "paranoid" against americans of Mexican descent as they may have loyalties to Mexico. Again, dont understand your logic but then again I dont care to.

No comparison at all between what is happening now and WW2. Really quite foolish to attempt a comparison.

I like the sentiment, but it was not the civilian population that stopped the gangland killings of the 30's.

Yea, I'm a fool too. I'm not the one who provided the original analogy.

Was a comment directed at those to whom it applied.

You sigh all you want to. Answer my question.

Or what?
What are the options if he chooses to ignore you?

I'm just curious

Go crawl under the same rock. I hope it gives you shelter.

If the shoe fits, wear it. If not, get over it.

Drug possession should not be considered a crime. Thomas Jefferson was able to buy heroin, opium, etc freely. Legal paternalism is wrong.

So therefore fentanyl should be legal also?
