"MEXICO CITY — An anonymous, twentysomething blogger is giving Mexicans what they can't get elsewhere — an inside view of their country's raging drug war.
Operating from behind a thick curtain of computer security, Blog del Narco in less than six months has become Mexico's go-to Internet site at a time when mainstream media are feeling pressure and threats to stay away from the story."http://www.google.com/hostednews…
This guy is my hero!

I'm all for it! Its time for a REVOLUTION. This drug bullshit game has gone on long enough.
Maybe someone will pick it up and translate it for the Americans. There are a lot of american sites that have this info on it.

It would not surprise if he is not part of the Mexican drug cartel...
- in a way he is helping all sides it seems, but the information is getting out that is all that matters.HijoDMaite

This is Mexico' cash cow. It would be an interesting stat to see how much perishable, non-perishable goods get exported compared to drugs. Of course the people want it because it = freedom. The govermental plutocrats want it to control the people and get rich.
The only way to end the war is to make it legal tax is like alcohol, cigs and instate laws just like we have for alcohol

AP website will not link you to any stories about this. The writer of this article works for AP yet you won't find it through AP.

They are talking to give more weapons to the mexican police, but their fame of being corrupted easy will make this obsolete.
Legalization could be step 1.
And whoever is providing the cartels with military grade equipment on this side of the border keeps getting money and no one is looking for the responsible.

Legalization would not help. Most of the drugs are for U.S.
- but if they legalize it, it won't be a business to bring it here anymoreMiguex
- that's the point... the US wants their drugs... ... make it legal here and we'll grow and sell our ownPonyBoy
- and who are they going to sell all their guns to if the cartels disappear?Miguex
- I just don't think it's a solution. There's still a problem.
:-)akrok - i know what you saying, M.akrok
- same thing would be IF THEY WOULD NOT SELL WEAPON THAT EASY. But they don't give a SHIT!.akrok

Just a glimpse in to what is happening 5 miles from the U.S. border. Did you notice there was no police sirens at all? They stay away on purpose.
- and it looks like there are no north american casualties ever.Miguex
- They know it brings a storm of criticism so they make it a habit to stay away from tourists. That's why there is less violence in TJ.HijoDMaite
- + 1 Hijo, I live in Culiacan, i moved here in its peek, it was nuts, but the cartel could give a shit about touristsmoldero
- their running a business, its cartel vs cartel or cartel vs military or copsmoldero

Damn you, Google Translate!
"The 72 illegal immigrants killed in San Fernando, Tamaulipas, were on a truck bound for the United States when, between Saturday and Sunday, were intercepted by a convoy of mushrooms."
Those must be some bad ass mushrooms.
