The devil is in Mexico.

Post by doubtingthomas »

If the Devil exists, he would obviously be in Mexico.
“They attacked the civilian, innocent population like a sort of revenge,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said. “It wasn’t just the clash between two groups, but it got to the point in which they began to shoot civilians, innocent people. That is the most unfortunate thing in this affair.”

I hope the US takes military action someday.

At the same time, federal officials, who were once thought to be less prone to corruption than local officials, increasingly have been shown to hold ties to the cartels. For example, Noe Ramirez, a former top anti-cartel official, was found in 2008 to have received $USD 450,000 per month in bribes in exchange for providing the cartels with information about military activities

So we could send troops to Mexico, blow up some building and kill some people. Is that going to fix anything?

I'm not suggesting the US should attack Mexico.

Shouldn't Mexico be the country to take military action?

Many Mexican soldiers work for the cartels, and some are rapists. So, what's the solution?

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

Seriously? :lol:

Mexico isn't willing to accept help from the US, what makes you think Mexico would pay for mercenaries?

I guess the US can let the cartels kill innocent civilians and allow them to bring illegal drugs here.

And don't forget the cartels also do human trafficking.
