NPR/ Audio: 7 min 47 sec/ With Transcript/ Jason Beaubien/ Outstanding summary report includes new interview with Azteca gang member.
Beaubien: "Francisco Garcia, a gunrunner for the Aztecas, says the violence isn't going to stop. "There's a war going on. Nobody could go in and say, 'Hey, that's it.' We can't do that. Because they already killed so many people with us and them," he says.
"The fallout from the drug war that's starting to be known as Calderon's quagmire is being felt across Mexico, among those of all walks of life. And there is no end in sight to the violence."
