Why Mexico? This is an on going world wide problem. With many countries facing the same problem. If anything I think the Dominican Republic is doing a great job at combating this situation.

Casselberry,
Have you had your head stuck in sand lately! Ciudad Juarez is the most dangerous city in the world due to the drug cartels. Dr is doing a good job "trying" to combat the problems, I never said otherwise.

Nickel bags and dime rocks....

Well now that's a nother thing....But not Nickel bags and dime rocks....

What is interesting to note is that when el PRD is in the presidency
the amount of drug busts dwindle to like 10 kilos a year. So are the
drug dealers bringing in less drugs then or blind eye?

Basta will have to relocate to score = Ouch not true. Have we not heard of long time storage. A 5x5 meter under ground room can hold 200,000,000.00us street value. Or hold long enough when I can purchase 150 earth quake prone condos!

The article mentions cash as well, but how much? Did it disappear again during investigation?

DRUG and LOW ENFORCEMENT IS A BIG INDUSTRY. the smart people go to collages and get to be doctors,paralegal , lawyers and other professions and make money defending the criminals etc. the not smart get to be the laborer distributing, killing, making people shut up,
a lot of people make money out of crime including hospitals,morgue, cemetery. and you do the
math. so don't expect changes just like that. the only way that thins are going to change is bay educating ourselves and our children which is very hard, because there is to much temptation
we have to do it. no one is sure whats going to happen with that drug that they reposes you know that they are no going to throw that away most certainly is going to end on the street poisoning brains and provoking more death. the more i think about this the more i am sure thatgovernments don't want to control it . we have to recognizance this is a conspiracy against our humanity. is up to us avoid temptations and love our children educ
