Drug War

In Mexico, there is currently a war going on, more commonly known as the 'Mexican Drug War'. I found out about this pretty recently (which is probably a bad thing I'm not keeping up with these things), but it started a while back because the government is trying to stop drug trafficking in Mexico. Mexico is a large supplier of quite a few drugs, including meth and cocaine, that is going to the United states. It's been suggested that about 90% of cocaine going into our country is coming from Mexico. Considering this war started in 2007, it's been pretty violent because many people have died. Esta estima que sobre treinta mil han murio.
