Drug violence spins Mexico toward 'civil war' - CNN.com

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/americas/02/18/mexico.drug.violence/index.html

A shootout in a border city that leaves five alleged drug traffickers sprawled dead on the street and seven police wounded. A police chief and his bodyguards gunned down outside his house in another border city. Four bridges into the United States shut down by protesters who want the military out of their towns and who officials say are backed by narcotraffickers.

How is the US at fault for Mexico being unable to control their own problems?

There's a market for drugs in the US and there are gun shops. Is that the "one more reason" to hate the yanks, pico?

No drug violence at the northern border on the Canadian side. Canada would do something about it. Mexico is powerless.
