Failed Narco State?
Mexican Authorities Disarm Acapulco Police, Fearing Infiltration By Drug Gangs
Federal and state authorities in Mexico have disarmed the entire police force in the city of Acapulco as investigators look into suspicions that it has been infiltrated by drug gangs.
According to The Associated Press, officers "were stripped of their guns, radios and bullet-proof vests and taken for background checks. Law enforcement duties in the seaside city of 800,000 will be taken over by soldiers, marines and state police."
The dramatic step was taken "because of suspicion that the force had probably been infiltrated by criminal groups" and due to "the complete inaction of the municipal police in fighting the crime wave," the state government said.

I have total faith in our southern neighbors, whose next elected leader will resolve all the social inequities that his country has suffered because of US hegemony,
Recommended course and there were two military at each hole with automatic weapons. Crazy.
