Dia de los Muertos

Mexico is voting for a new president today (Sunday, July 1st, 2012). One major issue in the election is the ongoing drug war which has killed more than 50,000 Mexicans in the past 6 years (including 50 journalist who dared to cover the cartels). What is rarely discussed in the US media is the roll that Americans play by buying/consuming the drugs that ultimately are responsible for many of those deaths.
