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

[protectionist]

Wow, look at that warm white milk work.

Wow, look at that racist jerk, making a fool out of himself.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

This is too totally idiotic to warrant the dignity of of a response.

Everything I said was true, so you're right, best not argue back with me, you won't look good believe me.

Except to say Trump isn't starting a war. He is RESPONDING to an ongoing war. DUH!

Bullshit, the US has been at pursuing an economic war against Mexico for decades, years before any cartels, listen to Ross Perot talk all about it, it's name is NAFTA:



You're a trumpanzee and like all trumpanzees your level of sophistication is to see everything as a cowboys and Indians movie.

Yup, just look at the racist make a fool of himself.

You must be from Idaho.

So you think "since the 1970s" doesn't include 2021- 2025 ?

Looks like you might have difficulty with math and English grammar, both.

Now do 2017-2020.

You have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Everything you've said is false, already easily refuted by me. You need to take up a new hobby. This forum is not for you. Pathetic.

 

[protectionist]

Now do 2017-2020.

I'd rather do 2025-2028. More relevant.

You're not only racist....you're also stupid. I mean really.

How so?

 

[the watcher]

Are we sure that our "government" doesn't want an endless and cheap supply of narcotics that keep our population sedated and entertained without any real fear of enforcement? That's what the Soviet Union did for 60 years when you couldn't get a potato or a head of cabbage, but vodka was cheaper than water. There's a lot of money tn heroin and cocaine that could fund a lot of patriotic black ops.

Didn’t the DC plane crash happen because Pete Buttigieg is gay.

Or that some disabled person worked for the FAA?

Couldn’t possibly be because we have a white guy in charge of the fire department.

Sure fuckup, are we taxing those two items?

 

[Failzero]

Mexico will want to get in on the Destruction of the Cartels ( eventually )

 

[JoeB131]

At least we would actually have a vested interest for this incursion...

Except, no, we really wouldn't.

They'd just move their drug labs further south.

Then what?

How far do you invade Mexico to get those labs?

You go where they are.

 

[CowboyTed]

I've been saying this for years.



Wrong. Doing it without the approval of the Mexican government would be an act of war.

Mexico has been asking for help and Trump cut security aid to them...

Mexico want rid of the Drug Cartels more than America does... Any chance Americans could stop buying the drugs and shipping guns into there country...

Yes, America should help Mexico... I still think that will have limited success...

What US really need to do is look at it as a business (that is why calling them terrorists is a bit stupid). They have Supply and Demand...
US has been trying to cut the supply but that has having very limited success because when it is reduced the price goes up and profit margin per kilo goes up... How sucessful has this been at reducing demand?
How about having free, top class rehab? Instead of criminalising drug use, treat it... Could even go down the Portugal route and legalise it while heavily regulating it but it is free on there healthcare.
Reduce the demand, it has had better success in other countries.

I will note that the profit margin on Drug Rehab is not the same as Private Prisons, so expect resistance.

Good point. The gun nuts screamed bloody murder when Obama tried to crack down on American gun stores knowingly selling to cartels...

 

[Kondor3]

Yes.
