Sure. We know that Mexico has control of the situation.
I thought it was good for a laugh.
Could be a possibility.
I have been going just across the border for years to do volunteer work. The Cartel is kind of like the Japanese Mafia, much involved in business and politics. I think almost all businesses have to pay them to run business, even the folks who work at the dump picking thru scraps, sounds crazy but true. I do not think Trump is thinking of military intervention, but economic pressure, like he did with Turkey.
Also the wall/fence would be a great way to cut back on the Cartel’s profits, eventually starving them out, which would benefit the locals.
It might sound crazy, but in San Luis area the Cartel kind of holds back the gang crime, because they want the business to come across the border.
The gangs are a big problem, some are very clever and know how to get into bank accounts if they get personal info.
I have also been told that a great amount of drug money laundering goes on down where I stay because of all the exchange of dollars to peso’s I guess.
The gossip was that the Americans who were killed had been having a feud with the cartel for many years, not a good idea for a foreigner, not yet anyway.
But I am sure Trump will come up with an ingenious way to deal with this matter.
lol...You don't really have a say in the matter Pedro.
Time to start placing their foreign aid into a trust for compensation to victims of their negligence.
I would send the Mexican president a copy of his picture taken through the sights of a Predator drone, along with a note on US Presidential stationary that says Kiss My A$$.
Cuban’s?
I don’t recall any bitching from Mexico about Fast & Furious.
The only thing i would support is a limited operation to take out cartel leadership like el Chapo. We hit them hard and then we go home. No need to get stuck in that quagmire
We go in to win/exterminate or we don’t go in at all.
Won't happen.
Me too.
They want to fight us but they cant fight them. This tells us that the government is the cartels
Of course they shouldn’t permit it. They are just as sovereign a nation as we are.
On the other hand, we can and should protect our border to the death from the savage messes called Mexican drug cartels, and all illegal aliens.
Deport and monitor the border as if it was an emerging industry!
Don’t ask!!Just do it!!
