It was the second deadliest conflict in the world last year, but it hardly registered in the international headlines.

As Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan dominated the news agenda, Mexico's drug wars claimed 23,000 lives during 2016 -- second only to Syria, where 50,000 people died as a result of the civil war.

Beat out of first place by Chicagoland.

It is a complex web. Mexico plays a key role in providing supporters and voters for the radical left in the USA. Printing the truth about the kind of people basically running Mexico would shed proper negative light on what our Federal government continues to allow to perpetuate in this country....all for politics. Meanwhile, the nest of crime and corruption continues to fester in Mexico...killing many people.

The Ministry of Propaganda is trying to prove how inhumane it would be to deport illegal aliens to such a dangerous place.

We should just let them make America a dangerous place.

I remember reading an article in Smithsonian magazine that stated that the population of Mexico decreased about 10% (about 10 million people) during the Mexican Revolution between 1910 and 1920. Mass killings are part of the Mexican culture and history.

A failed narco state on our southern border. Maybe we need more than a wall to keep them out. If I were CIC i would have the National Guard on the border..especially where there is no wall now. Armed and ready to turn back border crossers.

Chicago, in large part, is spillover from Mexican drug runner gangs, which has spread to the “native-born” criminal element there.

Mexico may prove to be as serious as anything in the Middle East, and it is right on our doorstep.

Build the cuffing wall. Forthwith.

Fake news...Mexico isn’t a country....

Mexico was second deadliest country in 2016

The Fake News MSM is finally acknowledging that we have major problems with the drug traffic, drug gangs, drugs coming into the U.S. across the border and just plain lawlessness across our souther border with Mexico.

We already know the Border Wall will cost around $10 Billion dollars. American Hispanics want the southern Border Wall built now!

Let us remind the Fake News MSM far left liberals that the Imposter Obama spent $1 Trillion of our taxpayer dollars in the infrastructure bill that passed by a Democratic controlled Congress. The Imposter Obama could not even produce one (1) single shovel ready job and we spent $1 Trillion dollars. This is the major reason why so many Americans are upset right now at the Rat party!

Yet, the Fake News MSM keeps telling us that we can not afford the Southern Border Wall. Give us a break!
