My Reactions:
The drag violence in Tijuana, Mexico has become more and more serious. The police have found nine more bodies dumped around Mexico border city of Tijuana. Astonishingly, it’s nearly 50 people have been killed in a week because of the violence of drug trade.

It’s confused me that selling drug is illegal and why those people are still trying to use violence? They attack not only their targets but also innocent crowds. They use curly way to kill people by execution-style killings, beheading, and throwing the grenades into crowds of revelers. Dose it indicate that the police don’t do well on their job or they don’t have enough authorities? The drug gangs are too arrogant. They don’t have the right to decide other’s live because of drugs. I think the laws of controlling drugs have to become much more forbidding. Not to mention that we have to give them severe penalties to restrain commit crime.

In my opinion, drug smuggling has to be forbidded and the coast police should check on more seriously. Drug addiction and violence are just like a chronic disease and don’t have any medicine to cure. We have to try our best to improve the situation and don’t let our society’s problem become an incurable malady. On the other hand, the other effective way to solve the problem is to give our next generation correct conceptions about these stuffs such as drug, alcohol, cigarette, and etc. It’s necessary to teach everyone, especially adolescents, to understand the consequence of having or even addicting to these evil stuffs and don’t let them go on a wrong way.(269 words)
