If Mexico can't eliminate the cartels, should the US military do the job ?

[protectionist]

Self-Defense. I know leftwingers have trouble wrapping their heads around this simple concept, but it has never been more relevant than right now. Mexican cartels & gangs from other latin-American countries have been killing Americans with fentanyl & other drugs + violence at a rate far surpassing Americans killed in Vietnam.

ACTION is required.

US Military needs to go into Mexico and team up with Mexican military, and destroy the cartels. This should be done with or without the consent of Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum.

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

We have Special Operation Units just for this sort of thing. Take out the leaders of the cartels and continue to do so until they get the message.

Um, yeah, because going into other countries worked out so well for us in Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam...

Here's how we end the fentanyl epidemic. We actually invest in drug rehab treatment.

The precedent in International Law is definitely there for the USA to do exactly that.

One of the most hallowed precepts of International Law is the Roosevelt Corollary which gives America the right to enter nations in our hemisphere when they can't handle their own affairs.

The real question is why Sleepy Joe didn't do anything about it.

Drug rehab doesn't work, and our nation's junkies aren't really interested in cleaning up their acts.

They like getting loaded.

Liberal ideas like "needle exchanges" just make the fentanyl habit more accessible and inviting to newbies.

No, needle exchanges prevent the spread of diseases like AIDS and Hep C.

Drug rehab has a 75% success rate... for people who can afford it. Just ask Rush Limbaugh.

What's it got to do with you?

Self-Defense.

Do you not know what "defense" means?

I know leftwingers have trouble wrapping their heads around this simple concept,

You can wear a turban if you like. Let others decide for themselves.

but it has never been more relevant than right now.

What are you talking about?

Mexican cartels & gangs from other latin-American countries have been killing Americans with fentanyl & other drugs

So, you are of the impression that Mexicans are dashing over the border and jabbing "good American boys" with drugs? You are stupid.

violence at a rate far surpassing Americans killed in Vietnam.

Don't include me in your bullshit. The Vietnamese didn't drag me over there so they could shoot at me. It was your MIC government that sent me over against my wishes.

ACTION is required.

WHAT THE **** ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

US Military needs to go into Mexico

NO!

and team up with Mexican military,

NO!

and destroy the cartels.

And NO!

This should be done with or without the consent of Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum.

You are a ******* idiot. You are blaming Mexico for the degradation of your own people, of your own country. If you don't like the consequences then don't push the plunger.

 

[BluesLegend]

THOUSANDS of Americans have been killed by these filth. Why isn't Mexico a smoldering pile of bombed out rubble? We have fought wars and wiped out other countries for less.

 

[BluesLegend]

I'd like a Dem to explain why it's okay for illegals south of the border to sneak in and RAPE and MURDER Americans? If Russia did that we'd nuke their ass.

"Success rate" is a load of bullshit, even according to your own link.

Just because some "relapses" or backslides into continued use, its not considered to be a failure by these "experts".

As far as needle exchanges , there is no proof the HIV and hep rates are any less in cities that have this atrocities going on.

-----------------

"Relapse does not mean failure, however. Many recovering addicts will relapse at some point.


According to NIDA, the relapse rate for drug addiction is 40% to 60%"

No, thousands of Americans have made bad life choices to use drugs.

Most Fentanyl traffickers are American Citizens.

Tobacco kills more people than Fentanyl, but we aren't going to war with Philip-Morris.

While Mexico and China are the primary source countries for fentanyl and fentanyl-related substances trafficked directly into the United States, India is emerging as a source for finished fentanyl powder and fentanyl precursor chemicals.

It's not Mexicans sneaking in and wreaking havoc but it is Mexican Cartels sneaking the evil-doers in.

Mexican Politicians are getting stinking rich on it. And so are/were many, MANY dimocrap scum politicians. BILLIONS upon billions of dollars have changed hands in one of the most cruel grifts in human history.

Can I prove it? Nope. But there's what you know, and what you can prove. It took humanity 5,000 years to prove germs exist.

I hope it doesn't take that long to prove that dimocraps are the scum of the Earth

Those poor devils (the illegals) pay a much as ten thousand dollars (average is 3,000) to the Cartels (who then pay Mexican and American Pols) to get to America. Everything they have. Everything; and now we're going to send them back. Heart breaking

So, you think drugs just pop out of the soil in Mexico and is jettisoned over the border in a coordinated barrage and attacks law-abiding American children?

 

[Zincwarrior]

SOunds nice but history has shown it doesn't work well.
Columbia tried with our help. DIdn't work.
Mexico tried for decades - first with weed then cocaine now everything. Didn't work. The Cartels bought the army.
Mexico tried it with their Marines. The Cartels killed or bought the Marines.

Isn't fentanyl an operative agent of evolution? The way to end the fentanyl crisis is to stop facilitating it by reviving users. Problem solved, no crisis.
