Will American cartels become more violent?

Question

As we close the border with Mexico and cut off the supply of drugs across the border, will the American drug traffickers become more violent?

Answer 1

Yes, because the shortage of drugs will create greater competition due to scarcity and thus greater violence. This is similar to the wars that occurtred when crack cocaine became more scarce  due to heavier penalties

Answer 2

yes they will

Answer 3

yes but atleast they will speak english while killing you

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

Presupposing there would be any closing or cutting off of the drug traffic at the border, the dealers in the U.S. would simply find another source of drugs.  In fact, more drugs are made int the US than all of Mexico and South America.  Many of the drugs maufactured legally in the US cannot be sold legally in the US, but can be shipped to and sold legally south of the border.
