I think a serious tourist boycott might be a solution to these problems.

You're saying these people will stop chopping others to pieces once they realize it's bad for tourism?

“You’re saying these people will stop chopping others to pieces once they realize it’s bad for tourism?”

Oh no. I’m saying that once the Mexican government realizes it is killing the tourist trade they’ll stop it.

I could be wrong, of course. But I don’t see what else can be done.

I don’t see how legalizing drugs in the US would bring an end to the violence, unless we restricted legal drugs to those produced within the US. I wouldn’t want to reward these people with any kind of open market.

I’m not big on drug legalization, I’d support marijuana legalization, but that’s as far as I’d go.
