    Patriots. I applaud them for their efforts. The Mexican government is the laughing stock of the world.

    Patriots. The government has let the cartels take over the country, why would these citizens listen? Innocent people will be kidnapped or murdered regardless.

    Assuming they are not working for a rival cartel, then I would say patriots. The Mexican government, especially the local governments are extremely corrupt and owned by the drug cartels. It the citizens have decided to take back their country, then I applaud them.

    This is my thought. If they honor their promise of giving back the towns they are fighting over, than they are true patriots... If not, it's not like Mexico got any worse lol.

    I agree with you, the Mexican government is just blowing in the breeze and seeing which way this is going to go.

    I think that they are doing the right thing by taking a stand against the cartels. I am curious where the fire power is coming from

    I hope they kill every one of those Mexican drug cartel members. Their dirty work can even be seen in the county in which I live in Virginia.

    The overwhelming majority of recent Mexican born immigrants I encounter are honest, hardworking, and deeply care about their kids.

    Minus the guns and violence, this is what people should start doing in the U.S. You want my hard earned money to support lazy a-holes, criminals, and other undeserving people...NO I ain't giving it to you. Start doing that by the millions in each state....friggin lock us all up. Lets do it.

    Either way... It's a lost cause.

    The drug cartels are basically stronger than the entire Mexican Government for god sakes. It's absolutely crazy to me that it has gone on as long as it has.

    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ can do a lot of things.
