Are we ever going to step in?

So I got online today and do what I do every day: Check email, log off Yahoo email, check the headlines on Yahoo, get on ar-15.co
That's when I ran into this article!

Since 2006, when Mexico's President Felipe Calderon announced a crackdown on cartels, more than 47,500 people have been killed in drug-related violence.

Ummm Felipe, you're doing it WRONG! So this all got me thinking, first off, we've already had the violence spill over the border and some Americans have already been killed, but holy cow! Almost 50,000 people in Mexico dead? Maybe we should look at the problems a little closer to home and render aid to our neighbors to the south? Even if they don't want it?

I hope the fuck we don't. There is literally no way we can win in there.

I say beef up border security and just try to keep it on their side of the fence.

Every time I hear someone tell me how they are headed to Mexico for vacation I have to ask myself why the Hell would anyone willingly set foot into that country.

To echo Ridge, reinforce the border and keep it south. I for one am in favor of automated turrets and land mines, but that's just me.

yup.

we need to learn to fight wars only against governments.
this would be a big mistake.
beef up the border. tell them to keep their shit on thier side of the line

Agreed, the cia could operate in the area possibly but their is nothing good to come out of a military operation unless it gets worse on our side. Better left alone for now. The mexican le/mil is a lot like the afghan le/mil.

We need another unwinable conflict like we need the department of energy.

Good point! They're pretty damn worthless... then again you can avoid trouble in Mexico if you have the right amount of money.

So better question, when are we going to deploy to the border to keep those animals in their own country?

Never. That would be racist.

[mcsurveyer1361]

kinda hard for their military to deal with it when most of them are payed off by the cartels. Just remember there would be no need to stop drug cartels if the demand for drugs wasnt so high.
