   With you. Even they are to blame, the ultimate victims, for Mexico's War   
   for buying their crap?   
      
   Obviously the prison terms are ludicrous for use.   
      
   Why should even legalizing use mean having to legalize sales also?   
      
   According to you, the people who have decided to descend to killing and   
   torturing each other to death, over money---no matter the source---can some   
   how be equated with it being caused by, or to even reduce, the prison terms   
   of users?

   Instead of those who do to push whatever vice; and, though such commercial   
   yet exists, those who allow themselves to be such willing casualties to the   
   deliberate weapons drugs can be used for and are being used for?

   Fall for Mexico's ploy to extract even more free U.S. dollars and arms, by   
   having American agree with Mexico's mafia: blame my father, my mother, my   
   sister, my neighbors---all who shun drugs and whatever vice---because in   
   Mexico persons are willing to kill and even torture to death over the   
   control of any vice? Lucre from any source to, in reality, market it   
   anywhere including Mexico? Even there as a weapon now too?   
      
   Because lunk-heads like you peddle such delusions to think that Mexico's   
   War is 'as advertised'? Like some old American gangster movie over drugs?   
      
   Not any and every vice? In Mexico, welcome cover for even suppressing the   
   most rightful dissent? Even a rightful revolt against the very government   
   that is Mexico's mafia as even factionalized and warring with each other as   
   those factions have become?   
      
   A war over the control of all lucre that has turned not only into a Civil   
   War, always undercurrent in the so-called Republic of Mexico (City's), but   
   also now a war of Secession (always undercurrent in the so-called Republic   
   of Mexico (City's) also? From Mexico City: that city's so-called   
   "governance"?   
      
   A war growing more gruesome by the day and would be happening even if the   
   U.S.A. did not exist?   
      
   It's is "Americans" fault?   
      
   Even if Mexico did not exist, the U.S. should, and must, come down on the   
   drug sales in the U.S.---though, given that Mexico does exist, beginning   
   with and in the immediate vicinities of the Mexican Consulates themselves.

   So stop altering your's and other's with your advertising Mexico's War as   
   merely a War on Drugs; and "Americans to blame."   
      
   Mexico and Mexicans are first and foremost responsible for Mexico.   
      
   Mexico and Mexicans are first and foremost responsible for even their   
   ill-intentions toward the U.S.A. and Americans---users or not.
