Some mexicans are mad to see such cartoon.
I see only that depicts precisely how Mexico is today
MEXICO CITY — The United States will withhold about $26 million promised for Mexico’s drug war because of concerns that the country has not done enough to protect its people from police and military abuse.
Blaming the United States' drug consumption (and the private ownership of guns), for Mexico's violence is disingenuous. Mexican drug traffickers would find some other way of getting money if the drug trade were to be stopped. Drugs has nothing to do with the graft, extortion, prostitution, and kidnapings for profit that go on in the cesspool of a country.
Furthermore, private sporting arms in the U.S. have little to do with Mexico's problems either. Full automatic weapons are the choice of drug criminals...not sporting arms. Further, in a recent incident, a hand grenade was used. The last time I checked my gun safe, I was all out of hand grenades (and full-auto weapons).
Mexico's problems have been created in mexico. It's correct that mexico is the supplier for the druggies in the US. But why have they taken on that role? It's because, ultimately, of corruption and poverty in mexico. The poverty has been caused by a couple centuries of an overbearing, corrupt ruling class, plus the usual statist economics framework. This is also the root cause of the illegal alien invasion of the US. Both problems would be cured by a democratic revolution which sweeps away that ruling class, and implements the formula for success: liberal democracy and free market economics. The US should help foment such a revolution.
