That sure fixed everything by legalizing alcohol didn't it? What a joke! Well, yeah, in respect to what we're talking about here, it did. It took organized crime out of it. Go revisit your history books. Look at the failed undertaking that prohibition was and how it gave the criminal underworld an entire empire to operate. Your comment "what a joke" shows you have absolutely zero idea what you're talking about when it comes to this.

Your comment "what a joke" shows you have absolutely zero idea what you're talking about when it comes to this. Just like the Mexican gangs killing each other to gain territory, the mobs killed each other to gain territory. So I do know what I'm talking about. How much tax dollars do you spend to fund prisons, drug rehabs, education classes, etc, etc? I spend a LOT. Like I said, quit using drugs and this all goes away. Border patrols, police enforcement, legalization, do not FIX the underlying problem. Never have, never will.

No disrespect but it's not just the drugs that has caused this. If there wasn't a market for drugs here the zetas would still be killing people. It's control and money. They do so much more than sell drugs.

It happened in Mexico, not a big deal.
When someone gets killed in Texas waters there, I might think twice about going back. Not a big deal? Really? A Mexican marine lost his life today...no big deal..

On a side note.... thats a really cool helicopter and looks like a bad B!tch. Last time I was there it was swooping down and doing patrols on the city at the mouth of the salinas. Kind of crazy.

jay kendrick and bud williams just came back from there. jay popped his double digit cherry down there this trip! glad they are safe! that's scary! We were on the Texas side when this battle broke out. We could here the gun fire and what sounded like mortars going off. We watched the helicopters fly in and gun down for about an hour.

I was not aware they were running alcohol. Are they undercutting Wal-Mart on the price of Tecate? Lol. You are right... slap a knot on the dope-heads. Trow them under the jail. That is working great isn't it? Breaking the country and pot use continues to grow in all demographics. Lots of tax money being left off the table... etc. Our current approach is the joke. I am guessing Ron Paul won't be getting your vote?

That is unfortunate and I have great respect for anyone that puts themselves in harms way to make the world a safer place. But this is the Texas Fishing Forum and I expressed my opinion only on that story's relevance to fishing.
