Merely advanced softening up of the soon to be acquired territory.

DPS (Texas) Warns Parents that Cartels Recruiting High School Students

The Texas Department of Public Safety is warning parents about drug cartels recruiting Texas high school students. DPS officials say they caught a 12-year-old boy driving a stolen pickup truck containing more than 800 pounds of marijuana last week.

Last month, two Texas teenagers were lured to Mexico where they were kidnapped, beaten, ransomed and released in a remote area along the Rio Grande River. In one Texas border county, more than 25 juveniles were arrested for drug trafficking within the past year.

“Mexican cartels have corrupted nearly an entire generation of youth living in Northern Mexico and they seek to corrupt our youth as well to further their smuggling operations,” said DPS Director Steven C. McCraw. “The Mexican Cartels value Texas teenagers for their ability to serve as expendable labor in many different roles and they have unlimited resources to recruit our children.”

These violent Mexican gangs are being provided guns and protection by the Obama Administration. Through the ATF the Obama Administration is providing them weapons. The Obama Administration is also putting pressure on law enforcement to let these gangs operate and to not interfere. When states such as Arizona try to take action the Obama Justice department sues them and forces them to stop.

These gangs are extremely profitable. They are well armed, well funded and politically connected.

The situation is very bad. It is about to get much worse. The problem is spreading to other parts of the country.

Could this be part of a planned excuse for Obama to declare Martial Law should it become clear that he will not be able to win re-election?

I'm not much on conspiracy theories, but the Obama Administration's continued refusal to enforce border security and dishonesty over the issue sure leads one in that direction.

Hmmm. Profitable.
I wonder how much Obama will rake in from small, untraceable donations this campaign cycle?

This alone is a huge reason to get rid of Obama next year. It boggles the mind that Obama's lapdogs Napolitano won't enforce our immigration and border laws and Holder sues states that try to enforce them.

I’m not much on conspiracy theories either but after all the lying and stunts by Obama in ignoring and even breaking laws I wouldn’t rule anything out.

Border and immigration laws were not enforced in the prior administration, nor the one before that, nor the one before that, etc.

There must be enormous sums of money to be made in drug and human trafficking.

The last president to take the border and illegals seriously was Eisenhower in 'Operation Wetback'.

“Proof again the Feds won’t protect Texas which is precisely why Texas should secede!”

Don’t think they should do that. What they should do is use the National Guard to patrol down there, but use some good ole pipe hitting home boys to rid the border of the vermin.

Drop a couple of dozen cartel heads on the cartel bosses table and the problem will go away.

Why fret about such trifles? Why we have Governor Perry pooh-poohing E-Verify and supporting instate tuition for illegal aliens and abandoning the stalled sanctuary city bill in the 82nd lege to fill in the air space, I’m sure Gov. Perry will handle this when he gets back.
