Widespread vigilantism is the last deep breath before anarchy. In fact, it’s one of the warning signs of an impending anarchic state.
It most likely is organized crime that is financing and encouraging these groups. But think about that: drug dealers, brothel owners, and extortionists want a less crime ridden society. How bad does it have to be when that is the truth.
Law enforcement is a joke in Mexico. If you are Police and aren’t on a criminal’s payroll, you are starving. They simply don’t pay enough to make a living. The Army is just as bad in some areas where the officers rent out men and heavy equipment for drug families who are at war with each other.
Social order has completely collapsed in Mexico, and people there are desperate for a normal life. Two bit punks will be caught in this crossfire and killed. Not that I feel sorry for the criminals, but the nation of Mexico is about to unravel.
We should go in and annex Mexico. We are in the process of becoming Estados Unidos anyway.
