"Even by the standards of Mexico's drug war, June has been bad. In a single 24-hour span, 85 people were killed, the worst one-day toll in more than a year and a half. In just a week, more than 120 turned up dead. In the northwestern state of Sinaloa—where one victim recently had his face peeled off and stitched to a soccer ball—prisoners at the Mazatlán jail unleashed an attack that left 29 dead. In President Felipe Calderón's home state, Michoacán, suspected members of La Familia gang ambushed federal officers with a machine gun. Twelve more dead, 13 wounded." When the death tolls were at this level in Iraq we were told it was a civil war.
