Smugglers from the Sinaloa Cartel continue using air-powered cannons to launch drug bundles over the fence that marks the border between Arizona and Sonora.
A cannon was recently seized by soldiers and Mexican federal agents in Agua Prieta, Sonora. According to information provided to Breitbart Texas by Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office, the device was inside a van that authorities found during a routine patrol.
The van contained an air compressor to propel the bundles over the border fence. Mexican authorities found 203 drug bundles weighing approximately 900 tons and 1,956 ammunition rounds with 26 magazines.

It is! And a little more portable than a fold-up trebuchet would be ;-)

Smugglers from the Sinaloa Cartel continue using air-powered cannons to launch drug bundles over the fence that marks the border between Arizona and Sonora. Um, projectiles are being launched from a foreign country into the United States? Sounds like an act of war to me.

Set up ‘stations’ in the area. for every one they launch, we launch 2.
Mortars, grenades, some live, some duds, balloons, bean bags, just something to launch back..
Even if it takes a few days to get to their latest launch site, still retaliate.
Wont be long before the citizenry puts and end to it.
Of course Mexico will send us a bill for littering and our Senate/Congress will be glad to pay it so long as they can blame PRESIDENT Trump.

I would think the obvious solution would be to inform the Mexican government that the next time a cannon is used to shoot drugs over our border, we will respond with mortar fire directed at the position of the cannon, and if it goes on after that, we will attack with A-10s and AC-130 Spectre aircraft.

A trebuchet would perhaps be a lot more quiet.

Mexican authorities found 203 drug bundles weighing approximately 900 tons
45 tons apiece? That’s one heck of a cannon. Someone is bad at math me thinks.

They got the idea from Dave "Cannonball" Smith who was successfully shot over the US Mex border wall along California.
