drugs, shady governments / organizations, a recent history of violent revolution
american guns
this is just me speculating, of course.
i'd say the number one reason is the cocaine industry. there are some incredibly wealthy people down there who are 100% illigitimate.
crazy to think about. imagine if bill gates, were a drug lord... that would be one powerful empire, run through violence.

That changed because of the way the former president attacked them. When everything is going good, there are no killings, when everything is tough on them, they kill for control and power.
I have gone to Mexico in recent years and never seen any of that.
