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.

    Yes, I meant that guns increase the damage from an irresponsible person, while drugs make them more irresponsible. So somewhat comparable as factors.

        Yeah, I’m not gonna argue with a person who thinks that allowing oneself to get intoxicated while having access to a gun is responsible. Just not worth it, like playing chess against a pigeon.

              I’m not the person you’ve been responding to, but you have been posting nothing but your opinions this entire time. You’re making sweeping statements based on nothing but your own misguided thoughts.

                We generally do that here, like you do now, exchange opinions, and our opinions are all we have (in a conversation anyway). It’s not a bad thing, just when an opinion discards opinions because they are not immediately sourced, and of course that opinion itself is not sourced … Seems very stupid.

                You are stating your opinion that I’m wrong and that something is a fact, thank you for sharing it, but it doesn’t become a fact any more than my opinion about facts and your opinions.
