Looks like a LACK of a WOD to me. This is what happens when drugs are tolerated, almost legal. Turf wars on just who gets to control the business. In Mexico, this includes police and local government corruption.

You stated:”This is what happens when drugs are tolerated, almost legal. Turf wars on just who gets to control the business. In Mexico, this includes police and local government corruption.”

Actually all that would be needed to get rid of the turf wars would be to take the money out of the equation. Making them legal would do that.

What does "almost legal" mean?

Turf wars on just who gets to control the business.

Correct. Let me ask you a question. If marijuana were regulated along the lines of alcohol, do you think there would be deadly turf wars over control of the business?
