More funding, more weapons, and less oversight will all help.

That and formatting.

“The 2009 coup d’étatin Honduras was carried out with the acquiescence of the U.S. government at the time. In fact, the Millennium Challenge Corp., an independent U.S. foreign-aid agency chaired by the Secretary of State — Hillary Clinton at the time — continued to provide funding to the coup regime in the immediate aftermath of the putsch, even as the U.S. State Department indicated publicly that it had suspended assistance programs in Honduras.”

Nice try by the military to try to get more funding out of Obama, but these “children” are not coming because of drug cartels. If they are so terrified of the cartels, why are the parents giving thousands of dollars AND THIER CHILDREN to the cartels to smuggle them into Texas? This is a way to get the kids into the USA so that the family can come over and get Free Stuff, but you’ll never hear the truth from politicians and the sob-story media.

...Some 58,000 migrant children, mostly Central Americans, have made the treacherous journey to the U.S. southern border alone...

Why do I absolutely not believe this premise, that thousands of children trekked across the Mexico desert by themselves?

They didn't. This is why I'm going to kick the next liberal whining about "human trafficking" right in the teeth. Our government is encouraging and facilitating the trafficking.

More Counter-Narcotics Funding Will Help Stem Exodus of Children from Central America

By all means, let's double down on a strategy that has failed for four decades. Even Tip O'Neill would be surprised at the totalitarian regimes -- including our own -- that the War on Drugs has produced.

“U.S. Military: More Counter-Narcotics Funding Will Help Stem Exodus of Children from Central America”

Ancesthntr: More .50 machine guns in towers near the border, and the willingness to use them, will help stem the exodus of children from Central America.

I am SICK AND TIRED of the excuse that border controls can’t work - when they haven’t been tried here with ANY degree of seriousness, and when they absolutely DO work overseas. How many North Koreans cross the border into South Korea? Virtually none, since the border is guarded (and those that do tend to be NK special forces types using tunnels to infiltrate). How many East Germans got out to West Germany - not very many, because the border was guarded (albeit in the opposite direction to what I’m talking about...but, nonetheless, it helps to prove the point).

FIRST guard the border, then we can have a serious discussion about immigration. Oh, and return those children to their parents/home countries - it is the humane thing to do. Yes, feed them, clothe them, make sure that they aren’t sick anymore and that any injuries that they have are attended to - but RETURN THEM!

Gen. Kelly rightly laments "the unbelievable levels of drug profits (approximately $85 billion) available to transnational criminal organizations to literally buy police departments, court systems and even governments." What he doesn't seem to realize is that the War on Drugs puts those billions in criminal hands by locking legal business out of the drug market. Eliminating drugs is as utopian a fantasy as Prohibition was - regarding drug profits, the only question is who will reap them.

The illicit drug profits are more like $150 MILLION USD. They were estimated at $109 in 2010.

If you think for a minute the cartels are going to bend over, and compete in a free market you have no idea who you are dealing with.

Heroin is already legal in Rx format. The Russian Mafia is making bank in the Black Market Rx Opiates. Kids are dropping like flies in the NE.

Fentanyl is a bioweapon used in war, and to assassinate people, it is 100x more powerful than morphine, and all over the streets. Kids these days don’t stand a chance.

It's not a question of "competing" - their customers will simply leave them behind for the many advantages offered by legal sellers.

You are being lied to. Deceived like a child. Soros didn’t pour over $80 MILLION into the drug legalization scheme because he likes WIllie Nelson.
Why do you think Obama has all the Salvatruchas, Maras, M13 etc are being brought into the country. Statically most gang members are under 25, and 40% are female.

Then where does it stop? They are already pushing to legalize all drugs. Fentanyl in heroin is what is killing all these kids. Fentanyl was used as a bioweapon in warfare.

What is happening now is ridiculous. Russia, Iran, and China are all amazing cultures that were destroyed by drugs. They are all slave nations and that is what they want to do to us.

There is no war on drugs. Our government is collaborating with the cartels. The FDA is approving more addicting opiates and highly addictive synthetic morphine drugs despite the fact that thousand of innocent patients became addicted, entire families have been destroyed, and lives ruined or lost, for taking medication as prescribed.

They want you DEAD son. I feel terrible for the kids these days.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 100 people in the United States die from drug overdoses every day, and death rates as a result of drug overdoses have more than tripled since 1990. It has surpassed alcohol and car accidents in accidental deaths. The CDC also reports that nearly three out of four prescription drug overdoses are caused by opiates.

If this were an STD causing these deaths on homosexuals it would be scandalous. Instead, thousands of anonymous families have been devastated by the destruction and eventual loss of lives of loved ones, that started with a trusted doctor. The few elite, the people lining political pockets, funding “research”, mass media/advertising biggest customer, etc. are making $billions, and apparently that is all that matters.

Legal Pot Hasn’t Stopped the Black Market
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/04/colo-pot-black-market/7292263/

'the black market's survival has less to do with taxes than with a shortage of legal stores.

'Colorado has more than 160 state-licensed stores, but they remain concentrated in the Denver area. Many towns don't have any.

'"When there are more stores and more products in the stores and prices settle down, then we'll see," Kleiman said. "I would be very surprised if the illicit market can compete at all."'
