They're losing an insane amount of potential tourism money

Interesting fact:
Mexico has a poor record of holding criminals to account for all manner of improper activity — from trafficking to homicide to regular old theft. "You have all these arrests and more than 40,000 deaths, but we don’t have anybody arrested and investigated successfully," says McKay, the security consultant. Most police departments in the United States and Canada, he notes, have an 80 to 90 percent "solve rate" of finding the alleged perpetrator. "In Mexico it’s almost zero."
That means 98% of the 27,500 murders in Mexico went unsolved.
In two Mexican states, Hidalgo and Tlaxcala, not a single homicide case resulted in a sentence, and In San Luis Potosi, 99.6% of homicide cases have not been resolved; in Sinalao, 99.2%; in Chihuahua, 98.3%.
40K deaths and no one is getting arrested for murder??
Damn, that's fukked up. It must suck knowing a loved one was killed and nothing will be done about it.

Keep the only drug that you can't Overdose on illegal brehs while letting Mfs openly shoot up Heroin, Meth, Cocaine, etc shyt that will literally stop your heart from beating
NOPE. CARTELS HAVE WAY TOO MUCH MONEY TO SWAY POLITICIANS TO KEEP AMERICANS OUT OF THE GAME. AND THE LABOR IS TOO CHEAP. BETWEEN THAT AND SHEAR VOLUME. NOBODY CAN MATCH THEIR OUTPUT.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WOULD BE THE PRICE OF ALL OTHER CROPS GOING WAY UP. THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS CORN GOING SKY HIGH BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY WE CAN KEEP THE FARMERS GROWING CORN. OTHERWISE, EVERYBODY WOULD START GROWING WEED. YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO CHOCOLATE RECENTLY.
Who would they customers be if you eliminate the black market of drugs in the united states?
Facts. Not trying to make light of the situation but in terms of the police and Mexican judicial system - I mean, they come to work and then what? Knowing you have a backlog of 23,000 cases and it's guaranteed that at least 14 more people will be murdered at any given time during the day. For example, they know for a fact it's either coming from the Sinaloa cartel or a local gang associated with them and there's not shyt they can do about it. If you make any arrests, you or your family will get murked or you take the pay off, keep it moving - knowing the victim's family won't get justice, the killer walks. Rinse. Repeat. In the very unlikely chance they arrest dude, the Judge, lawyers risk the chance of getting murked for taking it to trial. Then in contrast, in the US they arrest people for the menial shyt... get 20 to life for intent, killed no one .. shytz crazy.
what happened?

Yeah, who would buy cartel coke over dispensary coke?
Still though, I don't know how much it would help to stop violence in Mexico.
It would be a start and would help us also people would not be overdosing on bad batches and measurements at the rate they do now I believe this would help.
The Caribbean coast state of Quintana Roo, home to resorts like Cancún, Tulum and Cozumel, saw homicides rise by 132%, to the equivalent of about 35 killings per 100,000.
The state accounts for almost half of Mexico’s national tourism income. Mexico has seen international resorts such as Acapulco and Zihuatanejo, both in Guerrero, dragged down by a reputation for violence in the past.

That's supposed to be one of the "safe" parts of Mexico, if they lose that then they're fukked.
Terrible analogy. His point was that killing is indiscriminate and widespread there. Tourists getting gunned down is symptomatic of a more serious problem.

True, users would rather get pure coke and not have to worry about their shyt getting stepped on (especially with fentanyl)
Yeah that's gotta be depressing. What do cops in Mexico even do? Take cartel bribes and do nothing else?
I wonder if there are any solutions. It seems like Mexico is damn near lawless right now so it will be a tough battle
And as much crime as Mexico has, it's crazy to think some of the Central American countries are much worse.

Except the he was taking about a Mayor in Oaxaca not tourist.
Anyone in Mexico who becomes an elected official or police chief and wants to stand up to drug cartels needs to wear a bulletproof vest all the time.
It's like signing up to be the catcher on a baseball team, but never wear a cup. You got to wear the cup.
