Mexico goes to war


A familiar site if you've been to Mexico recently. We use to take random trips across the border for tacos and beer but the last few times we've crossed the border large army trucks with dozens of armed men sit in the back of the truck. Not a site a tourist wants to see.

President Felipe Calderon has decided to start a war against drugs in Mexico. I hope that those men in uniform with guns are fighting for the right side, with all the corruption in Mexico's government no one knows. I hope Calderon's war will help stop the huge drug issue in Mexico so it's people can enjoy some peace. Check out the LA Times for more info.
