"Is this what you call a simple demand?"
Quintero's face stiffened.
An all-out war against drug traffickers would mean overturning the entire existing order in Mexico, after all, even an evil order is still an order, and it's certainly better than Haiti.

Do you know how many were ultimately eradicated?
