It’s interesting how ahead their government is with some things and behind it is with others (generally speaking they have a lot of crime in their larger cities).
It’s harder to take out crime when the organized crime is outfitted with similar gear to the army and the army is highly corrupt due to the cartel paying better.
America was fortunate that we were able to snuff out our organized crime before they had access to modern technology that made it near impossible to snuff out their movement.
It’s hard to arrest a group of cartel all at once if they never leave their heavily guarded fortresses for Sunday brunch like the mafia did
Another issue is that they’re civilians. You could bomb their facilities but bombing civilians, especially when they’re your own citizens, is a pretty bad look.
To an extent yes, but you’ll have a hard time finding many reasonable people to protest bombing military grade cartel facilities. Many innocent civilians have suffered at the cartels hands and governments the world over are familiar with the extent of the cartels crimes, I don’t think it’d be a significant problem.
You know what they say about eggs and omelets after all
they also approved gay marriage and socialized medicine before we did & do
The US legalized gay marriage nationwide in 2015; Mexico didn’t achieve the same until 2022.

Same-sex marriage by two weeks (12 and 26 of June, 2015), so not exactly much.
how long on the socialized medicine?
Considering it hasn’t happened in the US yet…
“X years, Y months, Z days and 1 second”
“X years, Y months, Z days and 2 seconds”
“X years, Y months, Z days and 3 seconds”
“X years, Y months, Z days and 4 seconds”
“X years, Y months, Z days and 5 seconds”
“X years, Y months, Z days and 6 seconds”
…
Wish it was shorter, health care here is stupid. :(

Don’t disagree, it’s just fascinating to see it all play out.

This is not true.
