Drug cartels tighten grip; Mexico... 'narco-state'

"There are pockets of ungovernability... and they will expand."

Mexico updates four years of drug war deaths to more than 42,000

The government indicates the new figures shows the vast majority of those killed are suspected gang members, killed in turf wars between rival gangs. Detailed reports of interviews with those who have lost loved ones.. shows this is far from the truth.

It is extremely dangerous for the U.S. to have such an important neighbor in such a state of chaos... they are on the brink of losing an entire nation to continued and escalating violence...
