If the killing of, El Mencho, one of Mexico’s most powerful drug lords was a show of strength and purpose by the government, the response has been a show of force by the cartels. Across the country roads have been blocked, cars and buses torched, banks and shops set on fire by powerful criminal gangs intent on demonstrating their reach, and deterring further action against them. A day of frightening disorder and violence has left Mexicans wondering what comes next.
