The mayor of the capital of Mexico's violence-plagued state of Guerrero was killed on Sunday less than a week after he took office, the state's governor confirmed.

Arcos’ death comes just three days after the new city government’s secretary, Francisco Tapia, was shot to death.

“They were young and honest officials who sought progress for their community,” Senator Alejandro Moreno wrote on social media.

    Seriously though, legalizing drugs in the US would make a huge impact on reducung Mexican gang violence as things like produce are way less profitable than drug running.
