You too can be caught in middle of one of Mexico's quaint old fashioned gang wars.

It's a real shame too, because there are many historic sites I would love to see in Mexico.

I believe, in the parlance, that is referred to as "native handicrafts" in the tourist brochures.

There are a lot of archaeologic sites I wouldn't mind seeing, but at this point Tiahuanaco looks much more appealing.

In this economy, a book from the library is more realistic for me. Perhaps a road trip in the states. : )

Ditto. There are a lot of places I would like to see but no $ to see them.

Yeah. They should sell crack at walmart. It would be really cheap then. And such a better society.
More than likely. The so-called "War on Drug" has not stopped the flow of drugs - although it has made a lot of "respectable" people a lot of money. The flow of laundry money through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange is in the billions. It destroys lives and funds crimes. It also, by driving drug use underground, makes it more difficult to tackle the problem of drug abuse.
The knee jerk reaction of "I think drugs are bad so they should be illegal" is just that - a knee jerk unthinking reaction. And the imposition of thugish cops and confiscatory "forfeiture" laws with no recourse to recover illegally seized property is the stuff of horrors. My nephew had his truck seized when a person he knew in his apartment complex got busted for dealing - he never got his truck back, but still had to pay it off. In another case the city wanted a piece of land which the owners would not sell. So they staged a drug bust and parked an APC in their living room. No drugs were found.
The so-called war on drugs has not stopped either the use or sale of drugs. However, it does provide a great way for the "well connected" to use the authorities to shut their competition down. And the CIA is not called the "Cocaine Importation Agency" for no good reason. Illegal drugs, along with other criminality, fund a lot of their black operations. The drug wars and drug gang killings, like bootleggers - such as Alphonse, Scarface, Capone, create crime they do not stop it. Legalization in an instant does away with all the drug lords, all the killings, the need for totalitarian police, hundreds of millions in prisons, and on and on. It also puts the problem where it should be - in the hands of counselors and treatment centers, along with public education about what drugs do to a person.
So, tell us about the wonder of the war on drugs and how successful it has been. Drugs are now more available than they were during "The Summer of Love".

I watched REEFER MADNESS again today, and it carries a powerful message. One guy was not even tried but was instead summarily sentenced as "hopelessly insane for life", doubtless due to the effects of "marihuana"!
AND, his lawyer, the prosecutor and the judge all agreed!
If not for the War On Drugz this could happen 2 ewe!
(it's a good thing you can't get any "marihuana", huh?)
I admit that as a young musician I was lured into trying it once. Fortunately, my friends restrained me because I immediately wanted to launch a multi-state killing spree!
(According to FEDGOV) it has a different effect on girls though. They have the uncontrollable urge to drop their drawers for the Mexicans and Africans who always team up (to maximize the chances of pregnancy and rectal hemorrhaging) before offering it to unsuspecting white wimmen.

Ask any heroin addict if they started doing drugs mainlining.
These days, most herioin addicts start my raiding mommy and daddy's medicine cabinet or grandma and grandpa's medicine cabinet. They begin with pill popping synthetic opiates.

This country experienced the same things during alcohol prohibition as the Mexican people are experiencing now. We were smart enough to put a stop to it by repealing the 18th amendment. Hopefully the Mexican people will smarten up as well. There is an easy fix.
This has nothing to do with prohibition. As far as the Mexicans are concerned, there is no prohibition to the sales of drugs. This is an internal war over who is going to get to distribute it and profit from it. It's a war over territory.

It's an international war, on both sides of the border. What make is worthwhile for them is the profit of selling ILLEGAL drugs. If they weren't illegal they'd be very little profit, no drug war, and a lot less illegal traffic across the border.
My joy over McCain's defeat, is offset by my disappointment over hObama's victory.

That is a ridiculous statement and typical of drug warriors who refuse to acknowledge that the negative consequences of the WOD has caused worse problems than the drugs themselves. There most definitely is a prohibition to the sale of drugs in Mexico. If there were not then the border towns all along the border would be full of stores where a person could walk in and purchase pot, crack, heroin, etc. etc.

You contradict yourself. If there were no drug prohibition in Mexico, this would not be taking place. This is purely a manifestation of the black market in drugs.

Ask any heroin addict if they started doing drugs mainlining.
Most often, they will tell you they started with a joint, and it went from there.
Actually it was milk and dairy products. Ask any heroin addict if they started doing drugs mainlining. Most often, they will tell you they started with a glass of milk, and it went from there.

Is that all you got? That's right jackboot, everyone who is against the WOD is a druggie. You keep telling your self that. LOL! You are as simple minded as your fellow government lackey's on LP who think that everyone who says something bad about cops is a convict.
Mexican pipeline messed with? In more than thirty years the government you have your tongue up the ass of has neither stopped nor slowed the flow of drugs into this country. Zero. nada. LOL! If inflation is removed, drugs are cheaper today than they were when the drug war began. Pipeline messed with indeed.

WRONG. The WOD is as big a waste of money as is sending $3 billion per year to Israel.
We've been fighting the WOD since the early 1970's, when do we declare victory?? I can go out on ANY golf course and score drugs if I wanted to. You tell me how successful the WOD has been seeing as we definitely know that Bill Clinton smoked pot and Barry Obama smoked pot and that didn't impede their Holy Accession to the Oval Office.
