The Mexico problem

[purveyor of truth]

Whats the deal and where is it all headed? Aside from immigration issues the drug cartel problem continues to increase. The other day an entire police force quit in a Mexican town, now it is feared a beheading in Arizona is drug cartel related.

Poverty, violence, high birth rates and an apparent proclivity for corruption seems to be the Mexico norm.
