There are many different cartels and gangs around the world that cause lots of problems and lots of deaths especially in smaller more crime ridden countries. But not all are just in small countries. Drug cartels and gangs have even spread into bigger countries like the U.S where they sell illegal drugs and commit crimes. While many countries like Mexico aren't trying to get rid of these gangs and are instead trying to be peaceful with them and mitigate the problems they cause. Cartels and gangs continue today to sell lethal and addicting drugs such as cocaine and heroin.
Gangs have been around for a long time and have been said to have been around since the late 1700’s to the early 1800's. How are countries supposed to get rid of gangs when they've been around for this long and they've only grown since then. Maybe being peaceful with them is the only way to stop them from causing more damage than they already have done and will in the future. Cartels and gangs often prey on people that have a much harder time defending themselves such as people of old age or younger people.
One of the main reasons gangs have only grown and are extremely hard to get rid of is because the gangs and cartels are just continuously recruiting new people. One of the bigger problems of them recruiting young people as young as 9 years old. With gangs ruining youth at this young an age and transferring them into criminals before they even have a chance to reach adulthood. Cartels and gangs cause mistrust in communities and cause problems with economic efficiency.
What's going to happen with these gangs in the future are they gonna continue to commit crimes basically freely in some countries because governments don't have enough military power or police to get rid of them or are they just going to get worse. Cartels

Good topic choice Phoenix! The issue is you only replied one time to student comments and that is worth 30 points.
I feel like we do a lot as it is passively without causing a lot of casualties. Yes, I feel they should eliminate them for good in the most passive way possible. I would probably talk to the police or the FBI about it.
Yes, I think that there should probably be more done to stop these gangs and cartels. Yes they should mitigate the damages they cause even though there is a lot they should do it. Not really much you could do because there are so many and I'm not sure what I would do.
I feel that there should be more done but its not our biggest issue, however, it could become bigger. I don't really know what I would do if someone that was close to me got hurt or was in one of these because theres not much I could do.
I do think there should be more done to stop these gangs, considering the main tactic used by these people is gratuitous violence to make it so that people are scared of them and dont mess with them. They do this by torturing people, and I think there should be more done to stop this.
I think that there definitely should be more done to stop gangs and cartels unless those gangs and cartels are doing good. I think that the government should be doing more to mitigate the damage they cause because a lot of innocent people could be and are effected by it. I would probably report it to the police and if they don't do anything then I have no clue what I would do.
I think that there should be more done about the gangs and cartels. I think that the government could find more ways to stop them, but that they are also trying. I would try to help stop gangs and cartels.
I think that there is definately more things that can be done about gangs and cartels. I think that while the government is trying their best, they should be looking for new and innovating ways to stop them. If someone close to me was effected, I would help as much as I could depending on how/why they were effected by them.
I think that they should look for a different way to stop the cartels and gangs, I know that it is so difficult but I think the government can find another way to finish with those groups. Obviously I would help them, if I could, because most of those groups really want money, if you are not from one of those groups and you don't do anything to them, I don't think they will do anything to you, I think just by not messing with them/with don't disturb them and lookfor them,everything will be okay. Or at least that is my opinion about those groups.
I think there definitly should be more done to get rid of gangs and cartels. The government should try to mitigate damage that they cause I think. I would try to give people attention if they were affected by gangs or certel.
