Mexico

Another attrocity has occured in Mexico. A man running for political office and his family were murdered. Mexico is more dangerous than any country in the world right now and they are our neighbors. I can not believe this is not front page news in the media every day.

When will Mexico go to war with these drug cartels? The government has to know where and who they are, so why not go in guns blazing and take these guys out? At some point, marshal law must be declared and the dirty work must be done.

I wonder about what the USA would do if this was happening here? Can this issue be handled using the law as we know it? What does it take for a criminal organization to go from just crime to declaring war?

I like to believe that this could never happen in America but truthfully, why couldn't it?
