But like I said before, the things people do for quick cash. They don’t care about the dangers of what they are putting into their body, they just want money. What I still cannot believe is how drug dealers are always finding new ways to smuggle. Cartels have been using drones for surveillance on the customers and their “delivery men”. Their ultimate goal is to flood the United States with as much drugs a possible and to make enough money to have a wealthy life. The next goal…

Money and drugs is a powerful weapon in all parts of the world now in days. Strong organizations such as the Medellin cartel and the cartel of Sinaloa are as powerful enough to control a whole country; just like Pablo Escobar and Joaquin Guzman Loera did. Drug Trafficking deals with importing illegal substances such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and other various illegal drugs. Importing methods have evolved over time, shipment methods go from boat, plane, car, submarines, and underground…

maybe that life is about “being at the right place at the right time”? Or have you ever heard about the cartels and their crimes down in Mexico? Murders, kidnapping, drug trafficking, and lots of partying goes on every day by every cartel and by every drug lord south of the border. Unfortunately, these two topics have much in common in Mexico. Civilians that do not have anything to do with the cartels get caught up in these kind of events like partying with them, then, unexpectedly local police,…

Fireworks or gunfire? It may be difficult for some non-gun-wheedling citizens to tell the difference, but every cop knows ringing of gunfire. Miraculous patient recoveries are everyday norms for doctors, well, at least on TV. Several aspects of TV don’t depict real-life scenarios that happen in these job fields, instead they show the exciting, romanticized, alluring and often skewed, concepts of the job. Cops don’t experience shoot outs every day, half their day or sometimes more is spent on…
and brutal control of a multitude of drug cartels, the people of Michoacan, a state in southwestern Mexico, enthusiastically welcomed the unlawful organization of the vigilante, self-defense group known as the Autodefensas.

Looking at the fiasco of the United States direct military operation in 2006, it became clear that a new strategy was necessary to combat the well equipped drug cartels. The Merida Initiative is so successful because it aims to assist Mexico’s government and cut off some of the power of the cartels, with the least amount of casualties as possible. President Obama has stated that: “We share with Mexico responsibility for meeting this challenge and we are committed to continuing…
