Farm workers kidnapped to work growing marijuana
Our drug laws are the cause of stuff like this happening.

We need to legalize the production and sale of marijuana by licensed businesses if only to protect our neighbors from the violence that our drug laws are causing!!

The police in northwestern Mexico are searching for 27 farm workers who were kidnapped by dozens of heavily armed men wearing military-style uniforms. The attorney general of Sinaloa State says the assailants rousted the workers from bed at a vegetable farm just outside the state capital of Culiacán on Monday. The workers, men 16 to 61 years old who make less than $10 per day, were taken away in a caravan of sport utility vehicles. A state prosecutor said the motive was still being investigated, but local news media reported that a drug gang may have kidnapped the men to make them work growing marijuana.

The drug culture in Mexico is VERY different than it is here in the US.

Read up on some of the things that go on down there man you will see that they will most likely kill them.

If they were living somewhere that is stleast semi-urban they would hold a ransom on those guys but since they know they dont make much money then neither does their family they will most likely kill them.
