In other words He is considerate and vigilant of those watching, and are truly interested in the topic at hand. Joe is a very good interviewer, I have all too often seen much worse. There is also the length of the interview AND that it isn't constantly being interrupted or distracted by commercials or some other kind of bullshit.

We have an immigration issue alot due to violence south of the border due to the power and control of the cartels only because of the funding provided through buying drugs. Cartels cant do what they due without funding for weapons vehicles and the ability to pay off military and government personnel to carry out atrocities over the poor incapable people who want to come north to escape all that bullshit.

    Everything he is saying is the scary truth. A few years ago In Guerrero (where my family is from) I had an aunt who was fighting cancer and my cousin was working as a taxi driver to help her out while she was sick. An honest job that didn’t pay much but he did what he could. There was a shootout between the federal police of Mexico and the Zeta cartel that took place in the busy street. People running and abandoning their vehicles to escape the violence ended up in the crossfire. Unfortunately my cousins taxi cab was in the middle of gunfire and died at the scene. My aunt who got word that her son was dead really hit us hard. My mom couldn’t believe it I couldn’t no one could. Only to find out that a few weeks later the nurse who was the caretaker of my aunt called my house and said she passed away.. this senseless violence needs to end. It does. So many families torn apart.

    I'm from Monterrey. I remember watching messed up stuff. People hanging in light posts with narco messages attached to their bodies. Body bags in the side of the road, bags of heads. And narcos use to block big avenues with big trucks and mug everybody that stopped. I will also never forget watching the casino royal burn by narcos killing 200+ people in the tv as a 15 year old. You couldn't go out at night at all and you were afraid every time. It was normal to go to your friend's house and just stay there until morning and we use to hear gun shots as normal as the sound of a car honk. We all had a friend or a known person that was at the very least kid napped or killed. I was driving once from Texas to Monterrey with my friends and this car started pursuing us and I drove for our life at 200+km/h in the shitty Nuevo Laredo road. The first time I've run from my life, I'm thankful that I'm still here, I'm even thankful for what I saw and what I experienced because It has made me a strong person that values family and life. If you read this while having a bad day I hope you can find some catharsis in my words and value what you have because nothing is forever and life is truly short

      Yeah it's pretty wild out there. I had a close call down there about a year ago ( my girlfriend is from Veracruz, but is now living in montemorrelos - I'm an American). I got stopped by one of those police trucks with the cops armed with machine guns. They stopped me and had me in their sights, i was alone and driving to my girlfriend house. They basically told me that i am basically being reckless driving alone in a town that rampant with the Sinaloa as an American. They even said i could be targeted as a mule for them or even worse. The also mentioned that even people like them ( cops) are tied in and employed by the cartek. I about shit my pants cuz i had no option of getting out of that situation with the little Spanish i knew at the time, and no cell service to aquire help from my girlfriend. I was very, very lucky the situation went the way it did. Now she just meets me at the airport when I go down and rides with me. Not sure it will help at all, but it does give me a sense of safety

My uncle is a dairy Farmer and had a lot of money and farming equipment and these guys took all of it. Luckily my aunt and uncle are still alive. And this also happened to a family friend down in Cancun they threatened to kill him and his family if he didn't start paying weekly dues from his business.

    3:30 From what I've read about it, pot (especially smoking in teenage years) is correlated with schizophrenia, but only in those that have it in their families; which seems to indicate it may trigger latent schizophrenia in those that are predisposed to it. Like most things, the disorder is a combination of genetics that allow for a range of potential outcomes that are tempered or exacerbated by environmental factors. So someone that's genetically predisposed to schizophrenia could trigger it from heavy smoking during adolescence when they might have dodged a bullet and never have developed it otherwise. On the flip-side, if one isn't predisposed to the disorder, smoking pot won't trigger it. That's what the evidence suggests so far, but it could be disproven by new findings tomorrow for all I know.

    To both Joe Rogan and Ioan Grillo : Thank you for having the courage to investigate and publish such challenging and difficult material. Much of this material is only learned of up here in the upper 48 states away from the Southern border anecdotally. Occasionally newspaper articles are written or published. A big case usually Federal sometimes can bring this darkness into the light. Aside from Sean Penn's bullshit interview with Chapo, little has made it to the mainstream US media.
    No doubt this is a delicate subject matter both diplomatically and to corporate business interests. No one can fathom the notion of a failed state...yet here we are. When the cartel war began in Nuevo Laredo and all those women were disappearing and turning up with signs of torture and mutilation. Nobody stateside dared push the issue. The fear of having cartel style kidnapping some how morph across the US Mexico border into our communities stateside was palpable.
    Law enforcement must be working hard... yet. Clearly some arrangement must be in place to keep that from taking root on this side of the border must exist ! For how long ? Thanks....

    3 teens go down to arcabuz to visit their grandma for spring break. They never came back home. They are distant relatives of mine. We found out months later what happened when they found their bodies. They were tied and executed on the side of some dirt road. We know it was the Zetas cause an informant told an investigator about three young kids who were extorted for money simply cause they were from America and driving in mexico with Texas plates.
    Another family had a similar situation as the story in the vid. Zetas invade a home and robbed the family and they had young teenage girls. The mother made a deal with the Zetas in order to save her daughters from rape and whatever else the zetas wanted to do. So they took the mom instead and released her a month later. She had been tortured and raped the entire time. As far as my parents know she is still going to therapy. She didn't speak for a long time and barely ate food. She was completely traumatized. Its a miracle they didn't hack her to pieces.

      @Jeff So far the current Mexican government is evidently the complete antithesis to ALL previous corrupt shit governments. The new president seems to actually care about his people & country. It also appears that his administration has done more good in its first quarter than ALL the previous corrupt governments COMBINED. He seems to be neutral and doesn't believe in interfering in other countries' affairs. He also prefers respectful diplomatic talks rather than engaging in antagonistic confrontations. Basically he's all for peace, zero violence and no bloodshed. And from my understanding, many there believe he should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. That says a lot about the man. If all the world leaders shared his ideals for peace, we'd finally be a planet free of shitty wars and perpetual conflict. But of course the fucking power elite will do their damndest to prevent that.

    The whole government is in on the take on Mexico: Mexico’s equivalent of our Secretary the Homeland Security (Genaro Garcia Luna former Minister of Public Security) is awaiting trial for drug trafficking. The Mexican government - as noted in this interview - puts their thumb on the scale and decide which trafficking groups get to exist and which have to be stopped.

    As long as people look at this situation in the narrow minded way largely reflected in the comments here, this situation isn't going to change. The violence in Mexico and along the border has too many complex contributing factors for most folks to keep up with. Between a culture of corruption in Mexico, coupled with a weak central government and a historic regional distrust of centralized authority, and American imperialist destabilization of Latin America, combined with our shameless love of drugs, there are no forces strong enough to stop the bloodshed- at least in part because people are unwilling to have an honest conversation about possible solutions. They're too busy blaming Mexico for being corrupt and undeveloped, or blaming America for being a bunch of hypocritical druggies who won't stop interfering with other nation's affairs. BOTH ARE TRUE, and neither will stop the flow of drugs and violence over the border. It's time to open up an actual goddamned conversation about practical solutions to this crisis.
