#5 They are a serious menace, all business and very, very secretive. The article was a might silly...'coming to the US to buy M-60's'. Rather ignores the fact of entire units of the Mexican military deserting en masse with their equipment, including but not limited to armored vehicles and small aircraft.

That said, the town where I live has no main st or police department whatsoever, but ha been nationally recognized as as a major CJNG distribution point for fentanyl and cocaine.

#9 No Blood for Avocados!

Wait, sangria means 'blood', right? And that goes great with avocados. And maybe some chips, please.

As for the cartels, perhaps they can do a better job than the alleged Mexican Government.
