Mexico has been a hotbed of violence of the past four years ever since the government started what has become a civil war on drugs. The conflict has resulted in numerous acts of violence. During 2009 there was an average of 23 reported deaths related to drug violence every day. The increased violence between Mexican police and drug cartel has increased pressure on the government to improve the equipment provided for the police. This has become such a problem that there have been cases of the police protesting. This is a clear example of a failure in policy because an improper approach, the government should have done things from the bottom-up or not at all if they don’t have the resources to execute it.
