“Our State Department has done nothing to help these countries institute rule of law and the execution of justice.”

Why should we be responsible for another
country’s law and order? Instead of
walking a thousand miles to get here,
they should concentrate that energy
to fixing their own problems.
A lion can be defeated with a rock
if enough of them are thrown. If
their home countries are so bad as to
being inhabitable, they should stand
and fight to change it, instead of
running away. These people are cowards.

There is a huge difference between "help" and "being responsible for." I never asserted we are responsible for another country'a government.

The US government, under Obama, was responsible for(1) interfering with the execution of justice by the Maduro government on the gangs, and (2) opposing the deposing of President Zelaya when he violated the Honduran Constitution.

If you do not think we mentor, train, and influence other governments to assist them in governing in a fashion that serves the best interest of the US, you are living in fantasy land. That is what the State Department does.

Lastly, if we choose not to influence, then evil shows up at our front door anyway.
