• I agree @ JustAl. We build a fence, we make it illegal for them to cross it, we employ border patrol. Yae we make it perfectly LEGAL for them to kill them and ourselves. we toss them guns then throw drugs into the mix to make it intresting and profitable. You know, I always wanted to know why we never had a "war" on poverty. I now know. Theres no money in helping someone that has none to pay off the GREEDY F!CKIN government.

  • While you appear to agree with me on the "war on drugs," I must point out that I disagree with you vis a vie the "war on poverty". Neither of these "wars" has any Constitutional basis, neither of these issues is any of the federal (make that feral) government's business.

  • apryasn, you know you have quite an oppourtunity to provide an acquital to the problem. unforutunately you seem to be of the persuasion that somebody else will cure your ills. if i misread you i aplologige, but then again yo0u seem to me to be fruitless.

• Looks like we really need a moat to keep them out, but this should come as no surprise to anyone. "Dear Leader" is itching at any excuse to impose draconian gun control laws.

  • Not a moat, a navigable canal to replace the one Carter the first gave away. Make it big enough for aircraft carriers to pass each other in.

• If you look into the genesis of the Zetas; widely regarded as the most violent gang on the border, you'll find that we created them. The nucleus of founders were/are ex special ops troops form around Latin America who were trained and armed by the US government.

  The "war on drugs" is, and always has been, a war on the American people waged by the American government to enrich lawyers and politicians and foster a police state. It is the single biggest failing of what has passed itself off as "conservatism" in our nation.

• NO MAYBE! FOR SURE.... This was all a ploy to secretly rip the second amendment from us before it blew up in their commie faces.

• The article states that 150,000 Mexican soldiers deserted and took their weapons with them to work for the cartels. Time has come for a fortified fence along the border and a complete halt to immigration till we sort out this mess. And why do we keep paying all this money to Mexico? Its nothing more than bribery. In Kalifornia, the Mexican Police do not cooperate unless they get something. So if say a murder suspect flees to mexico, we not only have to promise to not impose the death penalty, we also have police agencies that give, uniforms, ballistic vets, patrol vehicles, guns, and a host of other stuff to Mexico in order for them to continue to "cooperate". The administration likes to think they are helping out our corrupt and dangerous neighbor to the south when actually they are paying extortion money to a band of thieves and pistaleros.

  The two biggest drug/gun gangs in Kalifornia? The Norteneos and Surenos. They run drugs, they steal guns and send them south. They control the drug trade from inside prisons. They are without a doubt the worst scum on the planet. These are not fruitpickers or grapepickers. These are MEXICAN TERRORISTS who's sole aim is to steal whatever they can from us, while taking our money and selling us drugs. The violence in Mexico is spreading all along the border, Kidnappings for cash, be-headings (ALA Islamic terror tactics) robberies, all the way down to purse snatching.

  Yet Mr. Napolitano, and his Boss, the Great one, think the border is secure. Secure my ass, its like swiss cheese. I know this whole fast and furious thing was an attempt to grab complete gun control and it blew up in the administrations face, and Holder even lied about knowledge of it. (Remember I have 11,000 employees and I can't know everything they do)

  Believe it or, the southern border is our weakest point, and doofus and company in Washington pretend its not. I would be willing to bet there is going to be an attack on the U.S., this time from Mexico and there will be the usual bullshit press releases saying all is well, and Obama and his teleprompter will also spew the usual, we are going to do everything responsible to bring the criminals to justice etc etc, and I believe Obama will know full well what is going on and will allow it to happen.

  Terrorist organizations are already at work in Mexico, that's common knowledge, and in border states, people need to prepare.

  This would be Obama's perfect crisis to jerk us around by imposing new laws, and maybe even another run at gun control. Watch it happen before the election to bolster dear Leaders standing. The leader of our country are anti american, spineless pieces of human feces who don't care about anything but ultimate power. Some days I really believe that Obama's mentor was Adolph Hitler. TSA fondling anyone? (just blue shirts instead of brown, a handy ready made force of idiots on the payroll if you will)

  Now I am sure one of the trolls will be here in mere moments to explain how I now hate the brown man, live in a trailer park, drink beer, and watch NASCAR. I don't give a shit what they say. The facts is the administration has full knowledge of whats going on, and because they have a yellow streak running down their pants and out their pant legs, they will not act, but will cower and take advantage of the next crisis.

  • Make that fence fortified, electrified, booby trapped, and explosive, with an obstacle course of razor wire 2 miles thick leading up to it!
    That ought to slow them down for a bit!
    Maybe use all the leftover land mines from Korea and Vietnam too!

  • well said Notso.
