The remaining victims were murdered in ever more disturbing ways, with police discovering one had been beheaded, before being scalped and his faced skinned. Friday’s massacre in southern Mexico is the latest spike in violence since rival factions of the Beltran Leyva cartel began fighting over territory after leader Arturo Beltran Leyva died in a battle with Mexican marines in December 2009. The unidentified men were dropped from the 600 foot high Solidarity Bridge near the Guerrero state capital of Chilpancingo. Police added: ‘it's presumed they were thrown alive from the bridge.’ Drug gang members have taken increasingly drastic measures seeking to intimidate rivals, from beheadings to skinning their victims. Guerrero state authorities said earlier Friday that eight people, including four teenagers, were slain before dawn in a string of attacks throughout Acapulco. Guerrero state police said it was not clear if the attacks were related. Nationwide, nearly 35,000 people have been killed in drug-gang violence since President Felipe Calderon deployed troops and federal police four years ago to crush the cartels in their strongholds. In Mexico's north Friday, soldiers killed eight suspected drug cartel members in two clashes near the industrial city of Monterrey, the military said. Soldiers intercepted a group of gunmen toting high-powered rifles and a grenade launcher and chased them into the Monterrey suburb of Guadalupe, where a shootout left five gunmen dead, Mexico's Defense Department said in a statement. Another group of gunmen later fired on soldiers in Juarez, another Monterrey suburb, sparking a firefight that killed three attackers, it said. Monterrey and the surrounding area has suffered a surge in drug violence as the Gulf Cartel battles the Zetas group for territory.

Poster Comment: My understanding is that the CIA and the Mexican government have sided with the Sinaloa drug cartel against all 300 other cartels. The Mexican army has sided with the Sinaloa cartel against the Juarez cartel and the local police. The Zetas drug gang has an alliance with the Juarez cartel. To retaliate the Zetas have been attacking Mexican military bases. There have been anti-government riots lately. The riots spring up wherever the CIA Stooge President Calderon goes. In the Mexican elections the Leftists will win. I would not own stock in any American owned company whose biggest silver mine is in Mexico.

Drug legalization in Mexico will have to make it's way onto the table, if it's not there already. It's up to the Mexican people to make it happen.

Drug legalization in user amounts won't work in Mexico. They will have to legalize possession of 100 kilos of cocaine or heroin. But that still will not help unless drugs are legalized in America.
