We worry about the wrong things in this country. What's going on down there can, and most likely will, spill over into this country. If you live in a border state like I do, you hear about it, but the further away from the border the less is heard.

If marijuana were legalized in the US, the Mexican drug gangs would lose out as the best stuff is grown in the USA. If anything, the fact that MJ is illegal would causes any spillover and legalization would mitigate it.
