Mexico meltdown
When do we defend our borders? Should we build a fence between Mexico and the United States? Seems as though we have talked about this for the past 10 years. My argument has always been that we fence our boarder with Mexico and militarize it if necessary to keep Mexicans from entering our country without going through the legal immigration process. The cost to the taxpayer is staggering. Seems nobody is listening to these common since suggestions. But how things are changing. The United Stated Military considers Mexico one of two nations most likely to collapse. The other being Pakistan. The drug war that is being waged in Mexico might be a real blessing to those who advocate sealing our southern border. With Mexicans dying literally just across the Rio Grande River by the thousands in the drug violence and the nation on the verge of collapse, finally the United States is going to be forced to act. But in the mean time the Mexican and American Governments are suggesting that the problem with the violence is due to Americans smuggling guns to Mexico. Such a sorry excuse considering the Mexican police and military are so corrupt that the criminals in Mexico don't need to look any further than their own police and military for all the weapons they need. Lets just pretend for a moment that those guns are coming from the United States. Seems clear that a secure border would help prevent that from happening. But in the mean time our border is still open with four or five thousand Mexicans crossing over each day. I am sure none of those are criminals but just your average every day Mexican wanting a better life in America. If you believe that you also believe that borrowing money to pay our national debt is a good idea!
I have two good friends. One from India and one from Iran who came to the United States legally. They are very proud of the hard work it took to get here. I am very proud to call them my friends and my fellow Americans. Kansans wake up and get on the phone and call your congressman and senator. Simply Google Kansas Senator or Kansas Congressman get the number and call about this topic. They are banking that you won't. You are competing with businesses who want all that cheap labor and a senator and congressman who is suppose to be representing you. Stay tuned and I will be posting all the phone numbers for the Kansas delegation in Washington.
