let's talk about mexico first
and a couple days ago i saw story
where they're bringing fifteen hundred mexican troops
into this they
uh... town called and i don't know how to pronounce that stand
shrewd underwater issued i'd like to see your dad waters i'm the worst alright
so and like him
chris matthews for this video hug leader
witnesses she award and iran
granite jaw warrants biospherians fifteen hundred troops mexican troops
are police right to take over the town
uh...
and in fact i think i have seven thousand
troops and police in position in the town
uh... after a while and uh...
and art for what its inmates
and what detective you know why they did this was
uh... earlier they had uh... police chief uh... that was threatening to go
actually go after the gangs in the town the drug gangs
and what they did was they shot and killed one police officer
and uh...
and another dark
and they said to the police chief everyday that you know stepped downward
silicon right the cartel's dotson right and he actually sat down at except that
right right then and there was like that i don't work helpless we've got it you
got to help us somehow
so that i read your post on it
anderson amazing numbers that yeah
definitely
the cartel there two major competing cartels in mexico right now the scene of
the lapd and low setbacks right and you know that war long between the two
cartels is that enough but now that the government is taking action and you know
they're you know taking their troops in taking you know making their troops
uh... you know battle this problem they decided you know maybe it's a good idea
for us to merge and become one now these two major cartels put together have a
hundred thousand foot soldiers
a hundred thousand foot soldiers
the mexican military only has one hundred thirty thousand members
they've got a real armenian
and than i am you know so i saw those amazing stats from anna's opposed any
and
seven thousand people last year
next consumers about six thousand or so
at least of accessibility is and then some are foreigners as well including
americans
i killed the last year
twice what it was just from the year before reckless things absolute blowing
up out of proportion
out of control and uh... including now the grizzly
beheading if some people
and it reminded some people who is on the ground it cools the center of the
problems so that a group
since beheadings in just last year alone
so that i saw how wall street journal article about a cold the bird perilous
state of mexico
and there's some people that are concerned that
mexico
uh... is going to turn into a narcolepsy within five your in five years now what
does it mean to be an art history it means that you lose effective control
over the government right
that the people that the other army two hundred thousand people on it and it's
only about
takes over the government
it's already happened in eight percent of the two hundred counties in mexico
where officials say
the mayor or the police the are not actually running that town the drug
gangs are that's definitely
and that's obviously enormous problem and
about all the parties in the database headings is
honestly to intimidate
are but they have that artificial religion apparently about them and
asking for our kids
there they worship last double at that
which is the next emerging apparently of the grim reaper
here's what i don't want to do
mess with the mexican
already
and right now the american government has just issued statements uh... you
know dis waiting americans to travel to let you know popular tourist
destinations
appearances beneath huge problem in chihuahua for awhile and you know and
it's increasing a lot of the beach communities lectern level which is why i
went to is now one of those uh... little cities little beach towns that you know
the american government does not want to travel to and i was really sad
when i heard that news because it's a great place to go it's really fun it's
really nice at usr list as a set of pictures of their trip for mexico
doesn't look like a long talk with a lot of extra but now im
honestly i'm scared and i'm not sure
and this is of course would be tremendous damage to their
tourist economy i don't know things that began says the scope of the problem that
mexican government is spending one point two
billion dollars to come back
drugs that's a lot of money right and the united states government is giving
four hundred million dollars the mexican government
to help them fight the war on drugs the problem is that you know how much the
drug gangs are making every year
from drugs
ten billion dollars
so that the government spending one point two billion
and the drug gangs are making ten million
now he's gonna
have the upper hand
look the cartel's definitely have an upper hand at this point the question is
how do you tackle this how do you solve this problem
you know the government taking action alone in the way that they have been
taking action so far obviously not working the cartels are coming out more
powerful and strong so uh... you know you brought up the question of whether
or not you know legalizing drugs is gonna make a difference and yeah i think
that it will make some sort of difference you know i don't have a
problem with legalizing the drugs but the question here is what about the two
competing cartels
what's gonna happen with that if that is a great question and look there's that
two different roads that were taking
by the last two presidents of mexico uh... in the last three years president
felipe a calderone has had one hundred fifty three clashes with the drug use
uh... whereas descent a pox in a six-year term with sixty
so boxes like uh... or i'm gonna do
they had forgets that low their low
and calderone sexy goin fighting
dazzling than three years some not sure we can say that there is the fed to
prove one way or another or you know there's has really gotten any better
my right so and one could certainly make an argument that it got worse
so these classes we have these classes all day long and the summary happen
this civilians of
let's go to the next government have status action
but in the had fifty dot all the license
and what what
today answer and this question
will the gangsters magically go away if you legalize drugs course that they're
not at all okay get great spoke a while you legalize it
well that's what we were just fighting for her
soho
matthewdarrah ideology was one
will go back to do whatever we're doing now known
but and n
unforeseen he's a really interesting to assist or through
online eleven we kinda bored after nine eleven we turn the board right
one of the reasons that began biosystems so much it's because
pets after a week and the border animated harder to bring drugs
of the country
uh... that
gangs that ran the drugs in mexico said hey well then you know what more to
start selling
drugs inside mexico and that was a unofficial truce they have a blessing
government where they were going to sell the local population
and i think there was no look other ways they brought all drugs in america right
missile issue sort of selling inside mexico first
the drug problem s go sort of go away up
uh... drug addiction has gone up twenty percent every year since
that's a big number right
then they've sort of carving up different parts of mexico
and that's what it is sort of fighting wanted this are fighting the government
unofficial truce over
they sort of fighting one another
so and that's what they did was they expanded now that this is they had so
much money from drugs they took the money and they started doing extortion
rackets so there's a lot of towns
where you can run a business without paying off
your drug dealer get
including g_m_ plants that are
paying off gangs et cetera right
well they go away entirely no but if you
drying up
the main source of money which is a ten billion dollars i think they're getting
from drugs
will hurt the rest of their business will they weather
will they get smaller
it's undoubtedly now the key to that is yes over drugs really ruchi
u_s_ government's got to take over me like a look
the socks are nowhere near certain percentage of alex but remember level is
that has the legalized drugs
has half that is we do marijuana
let alone heroin in air force we have eight times as many people do cocaine in
america as is now the list even though as we go over there and not legal over
here
but yet so i'm certain percentage of anything as to what provide drugs
sheep otherwise against will go away
because he saw the drugs at a high price
the mill still be money can be made
by bringing in illegally
but i think that if you go the route of
legalizing it
then you're getting rid of the main problem main problem is and that's to be
honest retin-a promise the gangs
and that body tended consequences in the bigger
and bigger that they're getting
i mean we can't have mexico fall in five years
visit actually i have been it probably won't be back dramatic but it's getting
horrible out there
sold out at some point the u_s_ government and i have to say
enough is enough bright-eyed i see your point but you know the chances of the
probability of that actually happening very slim
i don't think that the obama administration or whatever
administration is in after him you know if this takes that long i don't think
anyone can say that would be legalized drugs it's going to happen i mean our
country still to conservative and two
right wing for that
i think you're exactly right
which leaves us in a situation where we continue to spend hundreds of billy
there is a very billions
to give mexico the for as the money to fight these guys with the drug guys have
more money and soon their army will be larger than the mexican army ab
and they're better request they have or pgs now
and again as sophisticated
military quit white kids they got the money
no money raiser that not only do they have the money they have mexican
civilians ready and willing to
do participate in this they have a young kid between young kids as young as
eleven years old
too you know participate in this type of violence so because the gang uh... a
lifestyle such takeover of certain portion of a town where certain town
the center of and the virus roads
the way to kill the virus in my opinion secure was was the problem
just legalize it ori this thing is one hundred percent
outta control by the way the same exact thing happen
now with the headings but with tremendous files
here in america when the gangs
became enormous when
well we have prohibition
and we made alcohol illegal
people wanted alcohol anyway
and has huge days sprung up
and then we fought those gains for decades afterwards
decided mitomycin
we got up
relearn that lesson is timer
