What does that have to do with the fact that nobody gave a shit about immigrants walking across the border from Mexico since the beginning of our country?
I don't know what the point is you're making. My point is that it is SUDDENLY all over the news. SUDDENLY we need a wall. SUDDENLY we need troops.
The only thing that changed is that drug cartels are killing people. BILLIONS of dollars are at stake. That's my point. What's yours? |
From a conservative..I agree with you on this. Legalize drugs or at least marijuana and a lot of these border problems will go away. Along with that we won't need as many prisons as we have. A few common sense approaches and this would go a long way in helping the economy. I could almost forgive Obama's bullshit healthcare reform if he took some real steps in fixing things. And legalizing pot would go a long way in doing that.
