Terrorism. The real question is how do you get them out? What happened to that peasant uprising against them a few years ago?

there is a cartel motto that is a widely known tactic, if they come to you they are not asking for a favor, they tell you, "plomo o plata" , translated to lead or silver, meaning either you take their money or they fucking kill you.

Natural law is the rule of the strong and the ruthless.

They made the mistake of also demanding better wages from american food import businesses.
The Avocados millenials love so much are at the core of this. Cartels run avocado production as a side business and american food industry keeps the US government from taking down the cartels because it would hurt american businesses.

I wonder this too. They used to make criminals dig their own graves before executing them. Now they are run by criminals.

They have the guns. The citizens aren't allowed to own guns. Therefore, you do what the guy with the guns tells you to do.

money, tons of money

The government controls the cartels my friend,they decide which cartels should disapear.
The cartels bribe the government in order to ensure their survival, and avoid any fight with the army(which is the only organization that cartels actually fear). Neverthless the catels which screw more often with civilians, tend to be a direct target of the mexcian government.
Obama´s and Bush administration are also responsible for our problem thanks to gunwalker program on which US inflitrates sold guns to the cartels in order to track them.

we are allowed, is in our constitution.
The catch is that there is only one legal armory in the entire country, is run by the army, sell cheap useless junk at high prices and will only sell you one gun

Many of the cartels we hear about near the border aren't actually selling in any drugs, instead they are classic highwaymen, hijacking shit and demanding taxes from other drug dealers trying to smuggle their dope across the border. They also extort and tax any business operating in their area at such a massive extent that they in fact became the government themselves, operating beside them but actually having all the power and wealth. So government security agencies were easily recruited into these cartels because they are the defacto regime in these Northern provinces.
Mexico City and other regime strongholds are not run by cartels, we're talking shitty areas near the border and gulf. There's zero political will in Mexico City to do anything about the criminal shadow regime for some reason, likely because they're either getting paid from it or it's just an impossible problem requiring a full military occupation and they can't be bothered.

God. Even after centuries of years passing, central america has gone be to its extortionist roots of polities and tributary entities.

Well thank God for Eric Holder then, he'll sell you norteamericano guns all day long, amigo.

It's a brilliant plan actually, they effectively act like a government: enforcing taxes. In exchange they provide 'security', meaning anybody else robbing or stealing they final solution. Arresting these groups is next to impossible because they never actually handle any narcotics, they just tax the people that do who pass through their northern towns like an import tax. Lot's of gangs here have adopted the strategy, notably biker gangs do this. Protection rackets and extortion of all black market activities. Cops even sometimes work with these biker groups infomally if one of their taxed drug dealers goes off the rails they're expected to quietly kill him to keep the status quo. None of the bikers are ever caught handling dope or conspiring to bring it in so they never get arrested, just petty weapons charges.

They just let it happen, it's not even a "secret" like the American government is
Adrian Garcia
they bribe politicians, cops, no one face them for obvious reasons, even police runs away from them.

years ago a group of farmers faced them in Michoacan, after a few weeks, this group of farmers forced narcos to leave towns, so the cartel lost a lot of money, a few days after this, mexican government sent army to control the situation, now Michoacán ins under cartel control again.
We're a shithole country.

>how did they take over the government in Mexico?
Same (((organized crime))) did for yours. Money loans for elections or covering thir shit and fuckups and bribes for impunity. Do it long enough and it jusy becomes a thing they do, to the point politics and narcos become drinking fucking buddies
Eli Martin
Mexico has a military?
Joshua Bailey
Help from the CIA
Carson Rodriguez
yes, at this point both of our armies looks the same gringo, and its beautiful.
Josiah Torres
Mexico indeed does have an army, but its not heavily invested in comparison to the US Military Industrial Complex.
The Mexican army is just strong enough to keep the Cartels at bay and keep order.
Cooper Peterson
Crime, shitskins love wicked deeds.

Question for the mexibros: if a cartel came out saying they were going to start operating brothels with girls 8 and up, would you still tolerate this shit? Why is this more offensive to you than fucking murder if not?
Parker Hill
of course not, 8 is too old.
Jayden Martinez
Well, points for consistency I guess.
