      also mildly curious was Mexico's citizenry generally armed before this happened? seems like it might be harder to run this kind of takeover in most parts of the US? (speculative)

          we think the citizenry is uniformly anti-cartel and pro-government, especially that portions of the citizenry that are armed?

          the guns are coming from the US and one side has particular expertise in cross-border trade resulting in high-value contraband going to citizens (it is not the government side)

          The 2017 Small Arms Survey claims ~12 guns per 100 Mexicans, vs. ~120 per 100 Americans. Fewer than France, Germany, or Australia. More than the UK.

          US gun ownership is relatively concentrated, but in the cartel case, multiple-gun owners can arm their neighbors.

          I think private gun ownership is tightly controlled in Mexico so guns in private hands aren't reported. There have been vigilante groups that took on both drug cartels and government though. If your own town supports you can build whatever militia is necessary.

          I think it was Hines who tweeted about wanting to remake Magnificient Seven/Samurai in a modern day Mexican town beset by a cartel. Great idea.
