But of course that is not as much fun as blaming the evil USA.
and another thing? where do americans die the most? in 38 parallel between north and south korea? or europe?
but yet we can have thousandts of troops there but we cant patrol the waters to keep heavy caliber weapons and drugs from entering our country it just shows that truthfully this government doesnt give a **** about us.

1. doesnt enforce the laws to keep illegals out, corporate america exploits them and destroys the middle class america.
2. when america took control of afghanistan, afghans have outproduced themselves in the production of opium..I am glad mexicans are not dealing with the security over there huh?
3. we have concerns in china, north korea, defense shield in europe, protect israel WE WANT TO SAVE THE WORLD..
4. but when it comes to latin america, the one that really effects our way of living, our streets for some reasons AMERICANS THINK THAT LATIN AMERICA IS NOT OUR PROBLEM AND IT CAN SOLVE ITSELF...

I say..what a bunch of bologne, were a cowards and we show it everytime we vote for the same losers, so we are to blame and when we start voting right then maybe will have the america we so want.

Obama, Geithner, Holder and Clinton. If MAD TV was still on, Michael McDonald ( in character as the mentally challenged Special Olympics athlete) could rip them apart for being so stupid and ignorant compared to him. How long until Hillary gives China the go ahead to land chinese troops as peace keeping forces in Mexico just across the border?
How long until Geithner has the Mexican peso worth more than the US dollar? How long until Holder announces the US legal system is hopelessly corrupt and we should copy Mexico's superior system? How long until Obama says that opening the border to mexican illegals will lower health care costs and raise our educational standards?
Just how much lead is there in Washington DC's drinking water?

i saw that on the news last night. there is not enough border patrol officers to check vehicles. they let them know how they do it. they have many vehicles in a row filled with drugs. as one is caught(on purpose as a distraction), traffic is just pushed through so they can deal with that "one" problem. easy lol

think about how stupid that is. if they've checked all vehicles up until that point, what makes them think the vehicles behind them don't have drugs?

and they are buying weapons from u.s.

No, it wasn't effective. I always thought raw eggs are gross, but fried eggs are delicous, so when I saw the commercial where they showed the fried egg and mentioned it being like drugs, I assumed drugs were good.

I agree we are responsible.

Our GOVERNMENT has CHOSEN feed them, house them, medicate them, birth them educate them. They set up shop here soo easily, just like the harmless illegals. Just think if we had made the border hard to cross in the first place, we wouldn't have had this problem. As to the American's demand for causing the cartels to come over here....Of course they do, nobody to the south is as lax with their borders...

DAMMIT, if we just refused to do that stuff none of them would come over here.

The gang violence in Houston has been out of control. And you know what? It's mostly illegal Mexicans doing causing it. I agree, more Mexicans have been killed on US soil, by Mexicans, with American guns than in Mexico. More Americans have been killed by American guns in the hands of Illegal Mexicans on US soil than in Mexico.

The solution seems pretty simple to me.

The root of the problem is that Nancy Reagan's "just say no" campaign has never worked. There wouldn't be a problem at all if U.S. citizens didn't like to get high. Americans have to do everything to excess -- one of the reasons we're in this financial mess today. The solution is for the government to regulate drug use, like alcohol. It's unfair for the United States "to be creating a situation where people are holding the Mexican government and people responsible for our inability to control drugs. The same situation is occurring in Afghanistan with the poppy growing. People are going to do what they have to do to live. If that includes drug trafficking so be it. Eventually, innocent persons not involved in drug trafficking, are going get hit in the crossfire in one of the malls in Arizona if the U.S. doesn't get a handle on this situation.

Hillary needs to go after the drug users and keep her damn mouth shut and stop blaming all Americans for what a few Americans do...
