Like I needed a reminder that I promised myself years ago I would never go back to Mexcio. There are plenty of other hot places on this planet that are cleaner, and the probability of getting killed is lower.

Thanks for posting this. It really puts it in perspective. A lot of that is probably for trade routes to fuel the American demand for drugs. Very sad.
I’m pretty sure that the 40k number is since the Drug War began, not in one year. You may want to verify that. Regardless, the numbers are staggering.
Oh yea I think you might be right.. I just looked again and the columns in the table at the bottom of the page don’t add up to 40k… its more like 11k. Hopefully someone else can confirm that.
But I’m totally with on never setting foot in Mexico.
with you
All hail the glorious Drug War. Whatever it takes to keep people from getting high… is a price worth paying
/sarcasm
Who the hell is buying all these drugs and who has all this money to buy them?
Simple! us citizens…
