OUR Fault???

No way. Clinton not only admits that demand for drugs in the US feeds the drug-related violence in Mexico, but also blames our country's loose gun laws. Finally, an American politician is admitting complicity in a situation in Latin America. Hopefully some kind of action will be taken. . .

Perhaps, if you agree with Secretary Clinton that we as American's are responsible, it is time to admit that the purchase and use of illegal drugs is directly funding a war in Mexico that is costing the LIVES of thousands of human beings and threatening the rule of law in an entire country right next door.

Perhaps it is time for individuals who buy or use illegal drugs to take some personal responsibility and admit their part in this problem.

(Even weed-see below)
CNN reported on 4/14 - American Morning, that 61% of the revenue for Mexican drug cartels comes from US pot sales and that the cartels are even taking over domestic production within the US.
