We should be stationing a few thousand of our own across from the trouble spots and coordinating with the authorities to catch the baddies in a sandwich.
I’ve been following news of Calderon’s attorney general, he’s one of the good ones.
Sounds like an easier, cheaper, more humane approach....but what do I know.
Okay, why?
The officers of many units are in the pay of the drug lords.
In Mexico, money can buy anybody. Anybody.
They had over 5000.
Maybe the Mexican troops are really there to block the illegals trying to go home after being ousted from AZ and OK. And I wonder how many of the Mexicops will make a run across the border themselves, LOL!
But definitely make gang membership punishable by death: for all intents and purposes, MS-13, Bloods, Crips, et. al. are TERRORIST organizations and should be treated as such. They should be given the same treatment as the Taliban and Al Qaeda.
I agree with you. While I was in the navy, at Camp Pendleton, 1996-’98, I noticed that base usually had about 3,000 marines who didn’t have much work to do. They live about 35 miles north of downtown San Diego and 40 miles from the border, where thousands of illegals sneak in, each year. The marines should have been ordered to guard the border.
I got that as well. Amazing film.
True, and anyway Mexicans refer to the little barking rodents as Chihuahuenos, not Chihuahuas, because of the state’s name.
Well, you would be an enlightened soul, if you weren’t talking about criminal gangs in a criminal state like Mexico. What might work here, isn’t likely to work in Mexico where the criminals are competing for control of the system.
Appreciate the heads up on that film; I’ll look for it. Have you seen Denzel in American Gangster? Based on a true story, an incredible portrayal of the drugs trade in Harlem during the Nam war.
Hey, why do you just legalize all crime. Poof! No more criminals!
Even those officers who stay in the army, rather than leaving to join the cartels for higher pay, are likely corrupted. And the governor of Chihuahuah is likely corrupted. And the Presidente of Mexico is likely corrupted.
So, it’s unlikely that this is anything more than a charade.
Drug money buys off a lot of American law enforcement. Does anyone think for an instant that clinton went after the Mexican or Columbian cartels? They were paying him his 5%, and he worked with them for decades before he entered the White House. He used the DEA to control their small time competitors.
The problem is far worse in Mexico.
We’ve got the finest-honed desert warriors in the world now. I imagine there are quite a few out there who would prefer a tour among mesquite and saguaro to camel spiders and EFPs.
With the chance of potting a few narcotrafficantes thrown in for entertainment.
WOLVERINE!!!1!11!
Answer: They only had two cars.
red dawn....great movie in the day....hope there are alot of young people out there like them....
“Remember the Alamo” was the battlecry of Houston’s soliders afer the couragous effort of the Alamo defenders allowed him enough time to get into position to attack Santa Anna and defeat the Mexicans. It is not uttered here in Texas as a sign of defeat or retreat, but of a soon to be delivered can of whup ass.
On the other hand, why not make alcohol illegal again?! Why is society sanctioning these dangerous chemicals and directly participating in the deaths of 10's of thousands on the highway each year?
