NUEVO LAREDO, Mexico (AP) - Mourners honored Friday a border police chief gunned down just hours after taking over the post, while President Vicente Fox's spokesman said the United States shares some responsibility for the problem of border violence.
'snip'
Speaking to reporters in Mexico City, presedential spokesman Ruben Aguilar said the federal government "recognizes the violence in the northern region. It can't be ignored."
This is a problem in which the United States also shares responsibility, and that can be solved only through the mutual action of both countries," aguilar said.
Aguilar conceded that there had been "a breakdown of society in some parts of the country", but that the federal government would be willing to work together with the United States to address the problem.

Funny, Syria says the same thing.

HUMMMM pretty tame for a Messico official. Guess the heat is on.
Is there any way to break them off of North America, so that they would be an island???
That's sure one hell of an admission to make!
Sounds like Mexico's circling the drain.
mexico is corrupt from top to bottom.
"Aguilar conceded that there had been "a breakdown of society in some parts of the country", but that the federal government would be willing to work together with the United States to address the problem."
Call us, Vicinte, if dealing with Mexican violence somehow includes napalm and flame throwers. MOABS are just too quick and clean.
Most of the adult males have gone north, a major contributor to the breakdown, IMHO.
If there were no demand for illegal drugs in the United States, there wouldn't be drug-smuggling cartels shooting cops, border patrol agents, and anyone who happens to get in the way.
Time to secure our border and let Mexico take responsiblity
for it's OWN problems.
Border violence....... "that can be solved only through the mutual action of both countries"
We can start by taking the murderer they are harboring and send his butt back to Denver for execution (yeah, trial, too).
After that, we can talk about how you are going to reform your corrupt excuse for a country.....and how it's our fault for not militarily overthrowing the corrupt elites that are the sorry excuse for your democracy.
Also, Rest in Peace Chief Alejandro Dominguez, who must have been a brave and good man.
"If there were no demand for illegal drugs in the United States, there wouldn't be drug-smuggling cartels shooting cops, border patrol agents, and anyone who happens to get in the way."
If only Americans have illegal drugs, then only Mexicans. . . . No.
If only MEXICANS have illegals drugs then only Americans. . . .
Hmmm. There's no way to put this on a bumper sticker.
If they didn't have drugs to deal, they'd have nothing to do. They'd find other criminal pursuits.
In the next election, they're going to elect a President that makes us all wish Fox was still in control.
Without the buyer, the seller is out of business.
Where is our century's John Pershing when we need him most? What we should do is install our military on the border, build a huge wall across all of it (like the Israelis have done), arrest all illegals and jail those in the criminal enterprise of drug running. Then I suggest a round up and immediate deportation of all illegals everywhere they have moved in the US. If we don't, the Republic is very near death.
