This was a 2003 article that i found about the Thailand government trying to crackdown drug trafficking. When the campaign began to track down these criminal 596 were killed, and more than 720 government officials were being investigated because they were suspected of having something to do with drug trafficking. They estimated that 2,500 were killed on the 3 month journey to capture everyone that was involve in drug trafficking. They also stated that as much as 1,400 were killed and weren't even involved with drugs. I believe that too many people were killed i believe they should have only arrested them.

This is a very interesting article about how countries around the world are all trying to crack down on the drug problem. This is a great article to write a summarize and comment post on but make sure to acknowledge that is is FROM 2003. It is not very up to date, but you may still be able to get interesting information from it.
