Whatever the justice system is doing now to correct this problem is not working, that's why I am suggesting to step it up, a LOT. These animals don't have any qualms about murdering someone or ruining lives as long as they get to their bottom line, which is always power and money. So why should average citizens have a problem in treating them like garbage to keep them off of the streets and away from the general population. If there are separate facilities currently being used strictly for drug cartel members, the standards need to be set even lower than what they currently are.
It's going to take a radical approach to control this problem, as much as it can be controlled. There will always be a criminal element around no matter how severe the punishments are. I think something just needs to be done to make the drug trade as unappealing as possible.
And if a few "innocents" (innocent meaning not guilty of murder, but likely guilty of assault, theft, rape, a whole host of other crimes associated with drug gang activity) get taken out in the process, consider it a preemptive strike.
