The (massacre) of nine Americans by a Mexican drug cartel this week creates yet another excellent opportunity for the U.S. government to finally designate the sophisticated criminal operations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO). Judicial Watch has long advocated for this and earlier this year published a massacre of nine Americans by a Mexican drug cartel this week creates yet another excellent opportunity for the U.S. government to finally designate the sophisticated criminal operations as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO). Judicial Watch has long advocated for this and earlier this year published a https://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/JWWhitePaperCartelFTOdesigationMarch2019-003.pdf?V=1">(WHITE PAPER) providing comprehensive documentation that Mexican drug cartels undoubtedly meet the U.S. government’s requirements to be designated as FTOs.

To meet the criteria for FTO designation requires that organizations be foreign, engage in terrorism or terrorist activity or possess the capability and intent to do so and pose a threat to U.S. nationals or U.S. national security. Mexican drug cartels are inherently foreign, routinely commit criminal acts within the statutory definition of terrorism and arguably represent a more immediate and ongoing threat to U.S. national security than any of the currently-designated FTOs on the State Department ( lists) On Monday one of the illicit Mexican enterprises ambushed and murdered six children—including 8-month-old twins—and three women on a highway in the Mexican border state of Sonora. Other children, including an infant and toddler, survived with some seriously wounded.

This is the first time I have seen 4 optics night vision. I am wondering if they help with the inherent depth perception that single and dual have.

I know one thing for sure. Wearing those you have to have a strong neck.

Heck, after a couple hours with my single tube PVS14, my neck needs a break

There is far too much drug money greasing political and “deep state” hands both north and south of the border for anyone to ever be allowed to get real serious about Mexican drug cartels.
