I don't know who would win because the cartels are way better funded, equiped and trained; but they are way less psychotic and bloodthirsty than the yanks

In any case, nobody wants their employees fighting each other so HR is gonna cool down the situation

Arent the Mexican cartels armed and funded by the US? Would this be more like an internal conflict?

The only issue is most of those killed are Mexican civilians

Here's one of the big books on this sort of topic. I haven't read it, but I've not seen a bad review of it.
