Rising GOP support for the U.S. taking unilateral military action in Mexico against drug cartels is increasingly rattling people on both sides of the border who worry talk of an attack is getting normalized.

Wednesday’s Republican presidential primary debate featured high-stakes policy disagreements on a range of issues from abortion to the environment — but found near-unanimous consensus on the idea of using American military force to fight drug smuggling and migration.

    Cocaine isn’t really as available as you, it seems, trying to show. Weed was / is.

    If cocaine will become drug of choice instead of weed, consequences will be dire.

        We have quite different understanding of “available everywhere to anybody”, apparently. Stop exaggerating.

        And it’s significantly worse, than weed in terms of dependency, physical harm and violent behaviour.
        Do we need to add cocaine to the cocktail? I think not.

          Yeah, I’m more on your side. Maybe with heavy regulation and medical examination to allow a person to legally take them.

    • You will find a cocaine dealer in every mid sized town. It is not difficult to get hooked up with any drug in most places, be it weed, cocaine or opiates. Availability is not the limitinf factor to consumption or addiction in the same way it isnt for weed.
