- barelysapient 5y agoYes, and every American that purchases illegal drugs are fractionally but indirectly responsible for the deaths of 150,000 Mexican civilians. [1] We should also remember this death toll doesn’t count civilians from other countries, such as Colombia, where narco violence has also had a terrible cost on civilian life.

- djohnston 5y agoNot sure if you're being sarcastic, but they're obviously not directly responsible for murders in Mexico unless they're pulling the trigger, which they aren't.
