Anonymous Kills Websites, Cartels Kill Bloggers

An anonymous reader writes "While drug cartels in Mexico are disemboweling people they accuse of blogging about drug violence, Anonymous busies itself taking down Mexican government websites. With all the problems facing people in Mexico right now, including drug cartels extorting teachers for 50% of their pay and killing schoolchildren (thus shutting down the school system), Mexico's biggest oil field in terminal decline and drug cartels kidnapping busloads of people and forcing them into gladiator-style contests to the death, Anonymous' actions appear particularly petty."

    Sorry that my country is strangely concerned about the idea of people smoking weed. All I can say is that, if marijuana was grown in Scotland, made in small batches, and aged for several years prior to sale, maybe things would change. Unfortunately, marijuana is associated with brown people in a way that is unacceptable to the WASPS in Congress. Also, making strange things illegal and arresting people for having, using, or asking for them is a job creator, and things are a little tight over here right now.

    Sorry about the disembowelings, beheadings, and assassinations. Oh, and all the guns we keep selling your bloodthirsty cartel hitmen. Our bad.

    Love,
    America

    PS. Thanks for keeping Cancun safe. It'd be really tough for us to have spring breaks and honeymoons if we all had to go to the Jersey Shore.
