Downfall of the American-born drug lord they call 'Barbie'

[Ulysses31]

All those innocent migrants executed just for refusing to carry drugs, what's the world coming to. If we had cartels like this in Europe our police would be overwhelmed.

HAHHAHA I love the egotistical, self-promoting photo ops that law enforcement officers create after big drug busts. It's so cliche.

I just can't see British police in their current state as any match for these brutal cartels, we have problems taking out one guy with a gun. Although I'm sure if cartels did exist here the police would adapt and probably have tougher units but I'm still not sure. :dunno:

They always do that in Mexico whenever they capture drug lords and cartel members. They have a press conference and they present them to the media against a backdrop of federal police. I guess it has to do with public perception, it looks good to the public.:dunno:
