Most people are good. Sooner or later they get fed up, can’t take it anymore and this happens. I expect to see more of this and more revolts against the drug trade.

You're right. Most people are good, and the good will rise up to restore righteousness and destroy the forces of evil.

If the good people of Mexico take care of their political and criminal corruption problems, the only strife in North America would be coming from the mozlims.

Not bloody likely. Yearly revenues from illegal drug exports from Mexico to the US were estimated at around $14 billion.¹ For comparison, Mexico's oil exports in 2010 totaled around $36 billion.²
