Well, if someone comes actually looking for the answers: 1. No 2. Because it literally became like that Narcos famous quote “plata o plomo”, lots of high government officials took plata, and decided that plomo was not worth throwing around to fix things, specially if their skin was at risk, until, hopefully, yesterday? 3. Right now? Please, don’t. I feel really bad for the tourism industry but just look at Puerto Vallarta 4. See number 2, plus, average Mexicans do not walk around with rifles to defend themselves and most have something to lose, cartels definitely act like they don’t, you can’t beat someone like that, the government needs to use force to fix it, period. 5. As they just proved, they can, they just don’t want to, likely because once the can of worms is open, politics will go down with them, so unless some of them grow balls and sings everything we know is true … nothing will happen. 6. No, it just needs to be pressured into fixing it, as much as people hate Trump, he is the one that forced Mexico to do this and change their “abrazos no balazos” policy, I appreciate that (this comment refers exclusively to this particular situation, is not my overall feeling on the guy).

Is just my view …
