No. You said this: "The police aren't doing their job", which is what I particularly object to. They are doing it as well as anybody could reasonably be expected to.

And before you object to that 'reasonable' qualification, ponder the following: Somebody comes up to you and offers you enough money to pay off a good deal of your debt. But they don't stop there, they give you a choice! You can either accept this money, and go about your business, or you can decline this money, they will cut off your head, rape your wife, then cut off her's too.

Whatever you think you might do here, you cannot reasonably expect people to turn down the bribe.

"Why are they out of resources?"

Well that is really quite simple. Look up the amount of money the US spends on their "enforcement" and the answer should become clear.

"It's because the violence and crime is spilling over to the US side of things."

Look up the history of drug laws sometime. The laws predate the violence.
