Question of the Day

Wednesday, September 8th, 2010

What is the left has against simple debate? If you dare mention that the narco-civil war in Mexico is creating a security problem along the US/Mexico border, they shut down and call you a racist.

Fact one: It’s not about race.

Fact two: Mexico has been in the midst of a violent narco-civil war for years! It’s one of the reasons average Mexicans risk life and limb to come to America!

Fact three: Many Americans would be a lot less concerned about illegal immigration from Mexico if the narco-civil war stayed south of the border. Look up the kidnapping rating in Phoenix, AZ if you think the drug gangs haven’t crossed the boarder into the US.

It’s not that difficult to grasp. The problem is slightly more complicated than than the leftists would like it be, but not by much. Is it asking too much for liberals to step up to the intellectual plate on this subject?

Even the Obama administration admits the violence problem, although in a very quiet manner they hope nobody will notice.
