Didn’t Pres. Bush give them BILLIONS last year to fight violence? What happened to that? A lot of the guns the Mexican government was given by the U.S., including .50 caliber weapons, have turned up in the drug cartels’ hands. I suppose they’ll be cruising the skies in helicopters now.
To: Schnucki
And when drug cartels start using blackhawks, Obama will blame Conservative Americans for smuggling blackhawks into Mexico.
Re-institute the Assault Blackhawk Ban!!

WTF? Has Mexico run out of oil and the money their illegals send home every week?

I’m in no way in favor of doing this but if it comes down to it......
Instead of sending money to BUY the Helos why can’t we just send ACTUAL Helos? At least that way, there’s no money lost in the transaction.

Why don't .50 teams just shoot the smugglers they see crossing the border.
A few .50 rounds, a couple of cases of MREs and 3 days pay for a few 2-man NG/AR/USMCR sniper teams are a lot cheaper than Blackhawks.

We might as well just cut out the middleman and sell directly to the cartels.

I knew it!
As soon as she blamed us for mexicos' problems, that she would write a big check.
Oh well its only money we can just print some more.
I wonder if they will use the helicopters to patrol their northern border or to help Close down their southern border?
