Mexican Drug Wars per day death totals similar to viet nam daily death totals of american soldiers.

It appears that in Mexico drug war related deaths are equal to the daily number of deaths of american soldiers during the Viet Nam War.

Should the U.S. be more concerned about Mexico's drug war than they presently are?

Or is the lesson of the Viet Nam war that we should not get involved?


Or, are we already involved because american citizens are probably consuming a portion of the drugs that lead to deaths?
