Current Events > Is the Cartel as bad as people make them out to be?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Watching a lot of Scarface scenes, and particularly took notice of Sosa and they way everyone did business as usual. High class guys in business suits.

Not saying the Cartel isn't horrible, they are. And it sucks that a lot innocent get caught in the crossfire. But it seems as if you respect them, they won't bother you. Say you were in some high end club, would they bother you? People are scared to go to Mexico because of the cartel, but if the threat of catching a stray bullet wasn't there, what's there to be scared of?

On the other hand I think some get off the idea of being feared and if you don't fear them they quickly kill you. These guys I definitely despise.

They murdered a man on a lake. He was riding a boat to visit a historical church on an island and the local rule is only drug runners use boats there. But he's American and didn't know and they mistook him for a rival cartel and chased and shot him.

They also slice people's heads off and do satanic mystic rituals

There's videos on the net of what they do. You don't want to see those videos. Suffice to say they are as bad as you think and even worse.

Yes, they torture people on video and aren't afraid of doing that stuff to kids.

There's news stories and documentaries that are closer to reality than Scarface lol

Yes, literally torture people on video, dismember them, let their families watch. It's inhuman.

I can't believe you don't know this stuff >_> Getting info from a movie is why people hate millennials.

Is that you Nancy pelosi?

Are those normal joes or rival cartels?

Normal joes

...you missed when he hung a guy from a helicopter just because he thought he was a police informant?
How he got no problems with blowing up a journalist and his family?
Yes Sir, they are nice people as long as we allow them to break the law and spreading fear just because they can!

I remember a story how one of them hired workers to dig a large tunnel to run drugs underground. Then when the tunnel was finished the cartel had all the tunnel workers killed so nobody would know the secrets of it. A few escaped and told the tale anyway

fake news they are totally cool.

The Mob, Yakuza, and Triads are nowhere nears as bad as the Cartels (you can end up serving all 3 with no issues and not even know it), the Cartels will kill your family.
---

They're even worse.
---

The cartels rival ISIS in brutality. Even now reporters risk their lives and are often murdered just by reporting from there.

Ok, so I was overthinking. The cartel are absolute savages with no type of morale system.

Though the Mob, Yakuza, and Triads seem high class, i wouldn't underestimate them either.

During the 1995 and 2011 Japanese earthquakes, the Yakuza provided aids much faster than the Government.
