What Is The U.S. Doing About The Failed State On Its Southern Border?

4 hours ago · What Is The U.S. Doing About The Failed State On Its Southern Border? A failed state just surrendered a drug lord's son and a whole city to a drug cartel. In a sensible world, this would ring alarm bells in the Pentagon. A failed state just surrendered a drug lord's son and a whole city to a drug cartel. The nation's president praised the surrender. The government is powerless and corrupt and compromised. Mexico’s leftist president and vocal U.S. critic Andrés Manuel López Obrador was elected to deal with the cartels and gangs.
Anarchy is worse than tyranny. The events in Mexico show that it is no longer an independent.


Comment:
This has been a serious problem for years and is only getting worse. Democrats will try to stifle this because it means that Trump is right about our need for a border wall and tighter security.
Mexico has had four revolutions or more in their history. And General Pershing assisted in making sure it wouldn't spill over onto U.S. soil last time.It will inevitably spill into the US. In many ways it has. Democrat Plantation Sanctuary cities and states continue mouthing the same platitudes and don't think for a minute that when the ****f hits the fan here, those illegals will turn on the hand that's been feeding them You can bet Mr. President Trump will ensure that it doesn't come here. The cartels know that and work with the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Democrats because they know the American citizen will decimate them before they even have a chance as we done in the past
IMHO, there's little difference between terrorist groups like ISIS and the drug cartels south of the border. ISIS and their ilk are motivated by religion as a way to obtain total control over a region and its people while the cartels use the enormous profits from drug sales as their motivating force. Both are evil and both need to be destroyed. When will Mexico realize the problem they face and ask for our help? Likely never for they are simply too scared, or ignorant. Of course, one has to also question the participation of those in America in the aiding of these drug cartels, but there is too much corruption based on illicit money for much progress to be made here. The living in Mena Arkansas can remember it well.
It almost makes one wonder if PMS/DSA Democrats desire for open borders is motivated by more than the illegal votes they hope to garner.

Do you just post the first thing that jumps in to your (mind)?
How does that manage illegals? How does that manage the human trafficking?
How does that stop presidents authorizing the sale of guns to cartels?

We could always legalize human trafficking.

Trump just complains they're taking advantage of us. Too stupid.

Legalize drugs here. Problem solved.

I agree. If it's legalized, all the money goes away and so do the drug cartels and all of their violence. America's appetite for drugs created the Mexican narco-state.

That's not at all true. One of the reasons it is not true is because drugs are just a part of cartel criminal operations. Legalize drugs and it will be the same as it is in states where drugs have been decriminalized. There will be legal outlets selling drugs and the illegal sellers operating just the same. Just cheaper and untaxed.

Legalize drugs and it will not even address sex slavery, trafficking of minors, extortion, kidnapping, murder for fun or hire. The whole spectrum of crime will still proliferate.

There lies the problem.
They dont sell it cheap,they tax it to the point it's cheaper to buy on the street.

Hell,I'm all for giving the shit away. Eventually the hardcore users will all die and the cartells go out of business.

Which is way more problematic than drugs.

I take it you have no idea what organizations like the mafia or yakuzza are into since prohibition was repealed.

Meh....we're talking about a bunch of mexicans here.
They may try to branch out but all they know is drug trafficking,human smuggling and kidnapping.

Not sure if they could recover if forced to learn a new criminal enterprise.
These guys aren't rocket scientist,they rule by blunt force.
I'd say the most inventive and semi intelligent attempts at drug smuggling would be the semi submersible subs they built,and those were rudimentary at best.

How does that manage illegals?

They will be far fewer illegals if they're not fleeing the cartels.

How does that manage the human trafficking

The human trafficking comes along with your emphasis on "managing the illegals". Your policies create the problem there. If there's less trouble crossing the border legally, people don't need to be trafficked across.

How does that stop presidents authorizing the sale of guns to cartels?

How can the cartels buy guns from the USA without drug money?

As far as gun purchasing power?
They have enough cash on hand to support a small army. In other words an army stronger than the mehican army.
