You could, but it’s short sighted. Open warfare in the streets kills lucrative business. But as I said in a previous post from polling, the average teen would rather be a Zeta than a cop, that’s says a lot.
It’s just a shit show. If I were Mexican president I would probably just make a deal with the most powerful cartel to help eliminate their competition and further integrate them in government affairs, while allowing them to have free reign over any drug smuggling and possibly actively encourage it… as long as the murders stop. Only can assassinate your rival gang members in planned strikes with help of police or military. I mean they have to be so fed up with the situation. AMLO is a bit of an asshole, but America refuses to stem the massive inflow of guns and do absolutely nothing about curbing drug demand or introducing cheaper legal alternatives.
You could argue the cartels do more to help the average person than the government.
