Thread: Mexico's Porous Borders

Mexico’s porous borders

[b]As Mexico has struggled over the past two years to control spiralling drugs-related violence, it has often blamed the US for not doing more to help – in particular, by taking more stringent measures to stop the flow of weapons into Mexico. Thanks to absurdly permissive gun laws in the US, Mexico’s drugs gangs have found an armory on their doorstep and have acquired and amassed sophisticated arsenals with consummate ease. The US, so the Mexican government argues, must make a greater effort to stop what has become known as â€

Maybe we should take Mexico over. Send the illegals back and conquer Mexico. It seems they want us to do everything for them. What a joke. I heard something the other day that shocked me. Someone was saying that Mexico has something over on Bush. That is why he is behaving the way he is.

The US is a dangerous country. We cling to our guns and religion (famous quote from Obama) so why are they surprised that our guns end up on their side of the border. After all, the drugs and violence from Mexico ends up on our side of the border. Maybe this is just another definition of free trade.

Mexico does have "something over" on Bush...something known an oil, which mexico is soon to be short of as well, unless they amend their constitution and allow outside agencies with the exploration technology to assist them in harvesting that oil.

However, that will likely never happen as mexico's oil supply is state controlled and technically, owned by the citizens of mexico.

Saudi Arabia, Canada and then mexico are the three top exporters of oil to the United States, which may explain the lack of a backbone that Bush has when dealing with mexico...

Mexico is like a large, spoiled child. Nothing is ever their fault, it is always American's fault.

When I hear one of Mexico's people on tv talking about how "America didn't do this", or America did that", or it's America's fault for not...", I just tune them out, it means little coming from them.

Build the wall - stop people coming in from Mexico and guns heading south.

Lets drill our own oil, develop alternative fuels and more fuel and energy efficient equipment and vehicles, and tell Mexico and these other countries "hello, stop by the White House on your next legal diplomatic visit for tea and friendship, otherwise good-bye and see you around sometime over there, but not here".
