I grew up as kid in Mexico, Guerrero. I had a friend who was the same age as I am (44 now) He'd started a recycling business where he was successful. As it is common the cartel hit him up for a "piso" charge $. He finally refused to pay and got shot 3 times as he hid in the bathroom, and got killed. No one went to his burial except his immediate family, 5 total, as all extended family were petrified of being exposed to cartel informants. Our relatives from down there told us. This happened February 2nd, 2023 I use to play with him when we were around 5-7 before my mother decided to come over to the US Rest easy Roberto!

I worked for a little bit in Mexico as an analyst for the USG. The biggest issue that I saw is that narcos have a weird, semi-accepted/semi-romanticized place in local culture. From my understanding it's a very complicated relationship that has to do with mistrust of the government, governmental corruption and failures, a history that glorifies outlaws (who were often seen as freedom fighters), work by the cartels in the communities, and fear and poverty. While most people I met admitted the many faults with the cartels, many also expressed that getting rid of the cartels and bringing in the Mexican government would be worse. Alternatively, others I spoke with equated the cartels to the government (ie, cartel corruption drives many aspects of government). This is a major issue that we noted, including a tendency for police and cartels to work together and even have dual membership. What did become apparent is that simply 'getting rid' of the cartels was not going to be a realistic goal nor a lasting solution. This is especially true since the US plays a healthy role in supporting and enabling the cartels. The major customer base for cartel products (drugs mostly, but also some prostitution and other activities) are US citizens. Until the US takes meaningful steps to address and combat its own massive drug problems, the cartels are guaranteed to exist. The conservative mantra of 'let's attack the cartels' is simplistic, infantile and will never succeed. So long as there is a massive consumer base in a wealthy nation like the US, desperate people and criminals in impoverished nations will band together to exploit that consumer base for profit. Any approach to the cartels has to be multi-dimensional, comprehensive and long-term. Unfortunately, the USA has proven itself to be largely incapable in terms of any of these aspects (we don't do multi-dimensional plans, we don't seek comprehensive solutions and we have the attention span of a squirrel when it comes to issues).

I traveled through northern Mexico in 2021. The word I was getting from the locals was that the cartels have been cooperating with local citizen militias to eradicate the petty criminals. In exchange, these locals turn a blind eye to cartel shipments and do not inform the police. I wonder if this is true and if so, is this sort of thing widespread? It was spurred by the police being ineffective against petty crime for many decades, with a long history of corruption and apathy. The cartels, by contrast, apparently scared local criminals into submission, as petty crime had disappeared in all the areas I visited. Families were walking the streets at night in very poor neighborhoods; people were leaving bikes and valuables out unattended just like they do back in my safe midwestern US neighborhood. You can always tell when people are feeling safe and secure and I never got the slightest impression of anyone being concerned for their safety or for their possessions. Could such a devil's bargain have been struck? If so, this is yet another sign of the collapsing authority of the Mexican state, even if the results are positive.

As a Mexican, I've lost 3 members of my family to cartels, when we have nothing to do with them, and they threatened to kidnap me so we had to flee and leave my house with everything inside, and never came back.

Same background. I share the same feelings brother. The saddest thing about this whole thing in my opinion though is that Mexico is an amazing country and its people are some of the kindest, most welcoming and compassionate in the world but the common consensus among most Americans is that Mexico is a failed state with nothing to offer outside of the top three resort cities (some wouldn’t even dare visit those either). While I’m of Mexican descent, I’m not “Mexican-Mexican” so I wouldn’t dare speak for them out of respect. All I will say is that Mexico is a country of striking dichotomies. Land of billionaires and shantytowns, kindness and violence, beauty and horror. What many Americans miss though is that Mexico doesn’t exist in a bubble. Maybe if we realized how much our country has had a hand historically in shaping Mexico into the country it is today, for better or for worse, we wouldn’t be so quick to judge and criticize their problems. I know many Americans won’t like hearing that but it’s the truth. I myself was oblivious to many of these issues because it either wasn’t taught in school or greatly mischaracterized in favor of the US. Just look at the Mexican-American War for example. North of the border it was all “manifest destiny” while down south it was “the US stole half of our sovereign territory after an unprovoked invasion”. I understand the truth lies somewhere in the middle, but it sure as hell wasn’t “we were gifted the empty territory from California to Texas by Mexico” as I was led to believe in an elementary school history lesson.

Thank you for your appreciation of Mexico, but I have to be honest and realistic. The cartels, the government, the police, the military and in general the institutions, are all in complicity, they overlap and benefit from traffic. From the lowest-ranking municipal police officer in a small town, to the president of the country, everyone knows what is happening with this movement and they are complicit. And in the USA, it is practically the same. Our governments and militias have the ability to conquer almost any nation on earth if they want to, but oddly enough, they can't do anything against the criminal groups, that will never surpass them in strength.

The outcome was predictable by those of us in the U.S. Border Patrol back then. Those trained and equipped in the U.S. immediately hired on with the cartels. They called themselves, "Los Zetas."

You didn't mention the cartels' almost total control of the human smuggling across the border as a revenue stream. Depending on the distance traveled, and the country of origin, it can cost $10k-20k per person. This typically incurs a debt which must be rapidly re-paid when the trafficked individual arrives here. Failure to do so brings a rather severe punishment.

Has been in heavy use since 2006 so you can consider the FX-05 Xiuhcoatl rifle very good, very dependable and worth the money. And the FX-05 Xiuhcoatl uses the 5.56-NATO ammunition. Uses typical STANAG magazines. STANAG is NATO standard. Your AR-15 uses the same magazines as the FX-05 Xiuhcoatl. Plus, this rifle is not one of those stupid bullpup rifles. Such as the British SA-80, French FAMAS or the Israeli TAVAR. The magazine on the FX-05 Xiuhcoatl is in front of the trigger like all good rifles have. One interesting thing is the name. Xiuhcoatl is a Mayan word for "fire snake." The only problem I have is I don't know how to say Xiuhcoatl.

The US military makes available use of SFO-D, Green Berets or Rangers. Any use of explosive ordnance, including MOABs, must be approved by the Mexican government before being used on cartel targets. 3. The US military is granted immunity in taking out cartel targets if they warn civilians inside the target area a strike will happen in the area. Any life loss is not prosecutable.

When youre an outsider it is sad. I saw it the same way but someone had told me that residents of some towns would much rather have cartel help than government help since cartels have a quicker response to needs. Sad reality that people adore the cartels because the local gov fails to help, or get impeded

God. A commercial insurgency. I don't think two words have made such a horrifying combination.

As a Mexican, we have this lady that went to clean our house with her 3 children and she was a very kind woman that we relied on for years. Sadly, it was until then that she lost one of her children. There’s some theories on what happened; he was last heard from when he went to Tijuana with his “shady” friends that could’ve been involved with the cartel. they think that the cartel could’ve kidnapped him and had forced him to join them. It’s really sad on how bad the situation in Mexico is.

I find it fascinating that practically half of the violent crime in the US is gang related. I knew violent crime was on the decline but I didn't expect gang wars to be up so high.

It shouldn't be that surprising, since almost all major shootings happen in neighborhoods that are basically ethnic enclaves. It's usually cartels vs black/white gangs.

The main problem is the corrupt government officials in both countries.. The main problem is the corrupt government officials in both countries..

Politicians please listen to this guy so you can deal with the cartel problem in a better way for both nations.

Thanks for this, you did a good job of keeping a relatively open mind about next steps. I would agree that working together and making the financial end more difficult would be the smartest approach, as it gives the most return and has the least potential for collateral damage. Plus, splitting the sized funds can seriously help the economies of both nations.

This was a great piece, I tip my hat to you for calling it like you see it unbiased. My respects, regards, and gratitude is sent your way along with the utmost desire for success and luck to shine down on you.

Cartels will never die unless America stops being the worlds worst junkie.
