Bodies Piling Up: Mexican Morgues Crowded With Drug War Victims

Remember: George Bush, Mel Martinez, Lindsay Grahamnesty, all wanted open borders with this.

NO cheers, unfortunately.

[nmh]

And in the fall, Obama wants to OPEN THE BORDERS through “immigration reform”. May God help us. More crime will come here as our economy collapses.

[nmh]

This is horrific.

You read my mind.

Lock and load time as Obama strives to disarm us.

[Venturer]

Drug dealers killing drug dealers, is that a bad thing>?

[nmh]

I hope the dopes in College aren’t going there for “Spring Break”. Maybe the Dope in D.C. will legalize all illegal drugs as a source of income next.

“Still, the procession of the dead is staggering. Plans are under way to double the morgue’s size next year. “

Um, I could be way off here, but how about instead of spending the money to double the morgue for the dead, spending it on STOPPING PEOPLE FROM BEING DEAD?

[autumnraine]

They aren’t all drug dealers. In Houston, a young family man who had a promising career was mistaken for someone else was captured and killed.

[Pelagius of Asturias]

People must be pretty edgy in the area surrounding Juarez and El Paso. If that crossing is a shipment point all those places on the main highways like Las Cruces, Van Horn, and Carlsbad will probably see some spillover violence. I’m glad I don’t live there anymore.

If it were only that. These criminals use automatic weapons and grenades in their battles, which frequently take place in populated areas. Lots of "collateral damage" occurs. They also kill a lot of cops, mostly the honest ones who opposed them.

“Um, I could be way off here, but how about instead of spending the money to double the morgue for the dead, spending it on STOPPING PEOPLE FROM BEING DEAD?”

They are spending a fortune trying to stop all this. They've recently just sent 7,000 more troops into Juarez. They have something like 50,000 troops nationwide who are supposedly fighting drug cartels, and that's in addition to all their police.

The problem is that these organizations are making many billions of dollars a year selling drugs. They supply most all of the cocaine and meth and heroin that comes into this country and a huge portion of the marijuana, their biggest money maker, many thousands of tons of it every year. These guys are flush with cash to hire private armies, buy whatever kind of military grade arms they need, bribe cops and government officials. The money will keep coming in as long as there is demand. If one organization is taken down another fills the void. If one leader is killed he is quickly replaced, as are all these peons who keep ending up in the morgue. We might very well be able to get rough and help calm the violence down for a while, but this stuff isn't going to stop in the long run as long as these people are making many billions of dollars a year on the drug trade. We aren't going to stop that as long as there is so much demand for drugs here, no matter how how we build the fences.

We could legalize all drugs and these organizations would turn into little street gangs, but if we legalize drugs like cocaine and meth and heroin that is going to cause us lots of problems. They make most of their money from marijuana though and run the other drugs through the existing marijuana networks. We ought to just legalize marijuana and take away most of their money and make it harder for them to get the other stuff to end consumers who will be buying from licensed shops and not from dealers that help them move their other drugs. These organizations would still exist, but when they lose the lion's share of their income they aren't going to be nearly as hard to deal with.

Who is in charge over there the government or the drug lords?

“As with most murders in Ciudad Juarez, police found no witnesses, no weapons”

And there is the problem we have with assimilating the modern Mexican. Absolutely NO respect for the rule of law. Another article points this out:

“Amid the spiraling violence, few suspects are detained, as less than 2 percent of the murders are prosecuted. Eyewitnesses rarely come forward, as it is usually a death sentence; even the emergency medical technicians stopped responding to calls, as the drug gangs let it be known that they would be victims if they attempted to aid someone marked for death.”

“Drug dealers killing drug dealers, is that a bad thing>?”

There are school children trying to cross the street being shot. There have been 300 kidnappings in Phoenix recently by these drug dealing Mexican cartels. The rich leaders in Mexico have all relocated to El Paso,McAllen etc. They could care less what their people have to contend with.
