Former AG Bill Barr says Mexican drug cartels should be wiped off the face of the Earth 'like ISIS' because they have too much money and power for courts to ever bring them to justice
2022-07-24
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Speaking with Newsmax’s Greta Van Susteren, former AG Bill Barr, 72, said the Mexican government isn't 'serious enough' about disbanding the cartels, who are 'poisoning' Americans with fentanyl

  • 'I think [the Mexicans] have to be forced and pushed into action with us,' he said. 'We have to approach the cartels more like ISIS and less like the mafia'

  • He also said the individualized prosecution against cartels is ineffective, as they are 'effectively' acting like 'terrorist organizations'

  • Barr said the cartels are bringing in methamphetamines and other drugs with fentanyl and 'poisoning' Americans, who 'don't even know what's in the drugs'

  • Barr claimed Biden 'abandoned the border,' where more than 207,000 migrants tried to cross in June

"Mexican drug cartels should be wiped off the face of the Earth"

Isn't that what Trump was doing on multiple levels.? Sealing the border, remain in Mexico, ICE and DEA actually being allowed to do their jobs, speedy deportations and or prison sentences.

The opposite of what is now being done under the Biden Puppet Admin.

#16  As soon as we (openly) cross the border with troops to suppress the cartels Cuba and parties south will lend covert Russian aid. Already embedded cartelians be emboldened to unconstrained direct action.

#8  ^ Dron, I basically agree. If we are going to let a certain type act like animals, the rest of us are entitled to the same leeway.

#7  And they pay that by signing off organs. Like have an eye or a kidney harvested when they do aggravated assault or something. Both eyes on two counts. I'll wager they won't be causing no more aggravation thereafter.

#6  Per the discussion the other day of battery replacement costs in EVs: Should hard drug users have to buy a bond / insurance against their future cost to society? Should weed users have to pay a "productivity penalty" as part of their weed purchases?

I'd say, yes, yes they do...

#5  it is 'mehicos' business not ours. we should detain and repatriate illegal border crossers. No drug should be illegal. if you want to take it do so.

#2  I should favor the DoJ over the cartels why, exactly?
