Why I would let the military handle the Mexican drug cartels

If I were the president, I would call in my military leaders, and tell them to handle these cartels. The reason is this. heavily armed, well trained cartels are invading on o0ur soil, endangering our citizens. our military is the best trained, most lethal force in the world, and they would have a free hand, by my order, to eradicate these vermin. And, if Flippy Calderon had an issue with it, well, too bad!

Here is a story, from the Houston Chronicle that illustrates my point

MCALLEN, Texas (AP) — A shooting that injured a sheriff’s deputy was the first indisputable case of spillover violence from the Mexican drug wars in Hidalgo County, the local sheriff said Monday.

Sheriff Lupe Trevino, who previously said there was no direct spillover violence in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, said the Sunday shootout erupted while one of his deputies investigated a reported kidnapping and drug deal.

“I have to say that with this particular incident, the way the witnesses and the information that we have gotten particularly in the federal system, this is the first recorded spillover violence event that we have experienced — and unfortunately got one of our deputies shot,” Trevino said.

One suspect was killed and two were wounded. In all, six people were taken into custody, including the alleged kidnapping victim, and are awaiting charges, the sheriff said.

The sheriff said a protective vest probably saved the life of Deputy Hugo Rodriguez, who was shot in the chest, abdomen and leg. He is recovering at a hospital.

Red at The Right Scoop raises an important point, this will only get worse!

The longer our borders are neglected and drug cartels are subsidized by the United States government (thank you Mr. Holder), the more spillover.  For those of us living in Border States, it’s nothing new.  In 2009, The University of Texas at Brownsville (waaaaaay down south by the Mexico border) was forced to close due to stray bullets from a drug war shoot out – in Mexico. But no one was injured.

Our military has a purpose, to DEFEND our land and our people. Well, this is a clear case for that isn’t it? These cartels, would not fare well against our Green Berets, or Seals. let them do what they do, it likely would not take them long. And these cartels would never even think of even crossing America’s border again. It sickens me that our leaders are so gutless frankly. They prefer to fight governors that try to stop illegal immigration than to fight these cartels.  I leave you with this from Sheriff Trevino

“Now, there are more cartel members living in Texas, in the Valley, in the United States. I’ll guarantee you there’s a ton of them,” he said.

These are nothing but vermin, and the sooner we stomp them into dust the better! And, of that means our military has to go onto Mexico, where these cartels are, then so be it! And, again, if Flippy Calderon does not like it, then fuck him!
