If the US military actually fights the mexican cartels
I don't know who would win because the cartels are way better funded, equiped and trained; but they are way less psychotic and bloodthirsty than the yanks
In any case, nobody wants their employees fighting each other so HR is gonna cool down the situation

I know we don't like the u.s. military and are salivating to see them lose, but I'm not convinced the cartels alone would pose * as * much of a problem as people seem to be implying here.
The u.s. would almost definitely take some hits and losses and be dealing with long-term guerilla warfare to be sure, but even with cia funding I don't think the cartels are a 100% even match for an actual military with jets and whatnot.
Yeah the idea that the cartels would be anything more than Latino Taleban is silly. Air superiority and all that.
A US-Mexico concflict, with the assumption cartels side with Mexico? Maybe, but at that point we're just playing fantasy football.
The way users here post about mexican cartels reminds me of how kids in the 00's would post about anonymous.
yeah, I like to shit on the military as much as anyone but it's useful to remember what us strategic losses in asymmetric warfare look like and it usually involves hundreds of thousands of people indiscriminately killed
