    Are you seriously suggesting we just leave the cartels alone? They’re some of the most evil people on the planet.

      Yes, leave them to the people who actually have to live with the consequences of their existence; they’re more likely to do actually effective things rather than drop a bomb and make everything worse. If you want to do something about some of the most evil people on the planet, go bomb Congress or Wall Street (the White House will do in a pinch).

            So the Mexican military got aide from a military ally to help clean house?

              Yes, the same military ‘ally’ who was suggesting a couple months ago to bomb mexico without Mexico’s permission.

          Some people just want to be outraged, and damn the facts.

          There was a story here about the failure of the Moa point sewage plant failure in Wellington, which I’m pretty familiar with, as I live here. Multiple people commented about corporate greed destroying the environment etc, despite the fact this was a council owned asset.

          They also didn’t like me pointing this out, either.

        First, this was a shootout, not a bombing. Second, it was the Mexican military, who I’m pretty sure feel the effects of their actions, living in the country and all.

          Yes, I’m saying that Americans should let Mexicans (including the Mexican military) deal with their cartel problem and stay out of it.

            Isn’t that precisely what’s happening here though? I’m a bit confused about what your point is.
