    Mexico City, Mexico (CNN) -- A lead investigator and another official looking into the massacre of 72 migrants whose bodies were found this week in northern Mexico are missing, President Felipe Calderon said Friday.

    Calderon, who was giving a speech on drug violence, initially said the body of one of the men had been found. But he was handed a note few minutes later and corrected himself, saying the investigator was missing but there was no information about his death.

    Mexican media reported Friday morning that two bodies had been found and that one of them belonged to the investigator.

    When the population dwindles down to a level where people have enough space and resources to live comfortably.

    You cannot be serious.

    Mexico does need to crack down on the cartels, but unfortunately their government is either unable or is too corrupt and infiltrated by the cartels to do so.

    LOL! That's the solution! ^ :eek:
    :confused: WTF? Are you on crack, homey? Bomb WHO? All the what? You think all the gangsters and "bad peeps" are in one place, so you could bomb them? Or do you want to bomb all the people no matter whom they are, even innocent peeps? :mad:

    I know you're joking around, man... you made me laugh, but... eh, yeah... I'll say what everyone who never has lived there or never has seen this face to face says:

    "That whole country is corrupt! We should do something about that!" Sure, John Wayne. Go down there and help them! ;)

    Welcome to the mentality that has given us the Iraq & Afghanistan Wars. Sure he was joking but there's so many others out there that aren't/weren't joking. That's the sad part. :(

    Legalizing mar1juana in the U.S. would do irreparable damage to the cartels.

    That is true, sir. :grin:

    I think that if MEXICO had as much OIL like Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, etc., the U.S. and A. would have already gone down there to "bring down that bad regime and establish 'democracy' "... :( what do you all think?

    mexico gov is beyond repairable. For all I know the president could be the cartel leader.

    And I don't know one person that smokes weed that comes from Mexico.

    Good bud is grown in Canada or in the States.

    But I guess a lot of people still smoke on schwag aka reggie.

    Mexico is the #5 oil producing country in the world. They have huge oil reserves. Pemex?

    Maybe the expendables?
