Those who were involved with selling drugs...WHO CARES. Those who were innocent murder victims may God be with them.

Interesting article. Some were innocent, some they think were innocent, and some were in the wrong partsof towns and some were involved in the drug wars.

Now, I wonder how many Mexican citizens were killed in the United States last year---innocent and/or ones involved in the drug wars?

The article fails to mention that more Americans travel to Mexico than any other country (Canada #2, UK #3). Many millions travel to Mexico. Now, subtract the bad guys from the number, and it tends to make the article sensationalistic misinformation.
