I hate to say it, but the Mexican situation is pretty bad, and yeah, the drug cartels are legitimately terrorist organizations. Waay too many of those public executions and mass killings "to make a point", which is textbook terrorism.
The problem is their government is knee deep in it, our government is waist deep in it, and personally, while I know dope is a big thing in a lot of the country, I don't get it that so many people would be using so much dope that the demand is really affecting the stability of an entire country. I just don't see how that is all about dope.
