For once, troops deployed to actually protect the homeland.
Common Sense...
**The AMERICAN Homeland.
Came here to say this.
What a concept.
If there is cross border violence (aka shooting from the South side of Rio Grande, or cartels fighting troops and fleeing across the border to 'safety')... please feel free to cross the border and pursue.
If Mexico treated the border for 4-years like it meant nothing... then we have 4-years to return the favor.
A agent was killed yesterday at the Northern boarder.
I am for a military operation in Mexico.
Why cross border?
Send some artillery across the border on your behalf.
Artillery - For when you really want to reach out and touch someone.
Please let them use deadly force if needed, especially for gang members and the cartels.
How 'bout just execution on sight; kill, NO capture, for ALL verified cartel members?
Certain "people" in South America are some of the most disgusting, brutal, subhuman pieces of shit who literally treat human life as if it's the lowest thing on the planet.
We'd be stupid to do anything but return the favor in full when dealing with them.
Otherwise, it's basically being complicit in their crimes. Leave criminals alive to flourish = you bear some responsibility for their actions, after a point.
The articulation in your last paragraph is spot on. We'll said. o7
Finally going to use the National Guard to guard the nation.
Every thing Trump is doing seems like a well planned military campaign...Q+
Indeed it does. It's happening so fast I can hardly keep up. Get busy for 8 hours and I feel like i miss a lot.
I predict that this will be the Forward Operations Base (FOB) for missions exterminating the Mexican Cartels
Then, I predict another Mexican Civil War. People have lived in fear from both the drug cartels, as well as corrupt officials. When the cartels are eliminated, and the fear is gone - there will be some pretty pissed off Mexicans seeking revenge. Revenge is a pretty big deal in their culture.
This is something that NEEDS to happen, the pendulum needs to swing back.
I want to see troops, tanks and all kinds of intimidating weapons on the border - pointed towards Mexico. I don't see why President Trump needs to go through all this crap with the Insurrection Act. He is not using the army against U.S. citizens, he's using it to defend our border against FOREIGN INVADERS.
it's like 1848 all over again. Where is Zachary Taylor when we need him?
As they should. Line up tanks & cannons facing south.
Alligators,.lots of alligators
We need some navy ships in the gulf of America.
Interesting last sentence. Trump says he will decide within 90 days whether to invoke the Insurrection Act which would allow active duty troops to be used for law enforcement purposes. 😏😯
Yup. Came here to say this.
FAFO TIME
🥳🍿
I think Trump should go after the cartels. A perfect battle of Good vs. Evil.
Canada, airports, entire coastlines.
WHOOP!
This is the way.
But what are their orders for ROE? I don't want them standing there without the protection of being able to fire on if attacked or approached.
Edit: grammar their/there
Unless they have orders to repel the invasion this is strictly optics.
