So thousands of people die every year as a result of the drug trade coming out of Mexico. (estimated at more than 60,000 since late 2006) Innocent people who are used to send messages, Border Patrol agents who get in the way, one group of thugs killing off competitors, etc. It's not all that rare to hear about mass graves found near our southern borders nowadays.
Meanwhile- Our federal government has completely failed at securing our borders and seems to not recognize the legitimate threat posed by SOME of our neighbors to the south. (I have often wondered why we're mixed up in so much overseas drama when we have full blown terrorist organizations operating in Mexico and coming and going from the U.S. with relative ease.)
I've heard some of my more liberal acquaintances say that if certain drugs were legalized here it would eliminate a lot of the violence due to ending the criminal “market”. I find it humorous that those same people support banning certain firearms......Create a new “market” anyone?

It's all about money. You don't think certain people aren't getting their hands washed to turn a cheek.
I mean, how did all those guns get down there?
Drugs will never be legalized - way to much at stake

Well put. All this gun control is about controlling us not our guns. Without our guns we have no control over a government that is trying to control the world.

Amen to that Billy.....2nd Amendment rights are to insure that we the people can protect ourselves from tyranny of the government!! Its not about hunting at all!! Its about a God given right for a man to protect his home and family!! And if necessary defend himself from government control! |

hell i am all for a legalization and taxation of drugs . anything banned is just a form of prohibition that has been proven to fail . the war on drugs is just a political money pit . we have more jobs and politics getting paid hard earned tax dollars to fight it . how many lawyers , judges , prison gaurds, police officers , rehab employee's ect. ect. ect. would we NOT HAVE A USE FOR if we actually won the war on drugs . but hell napolitino just left arizona yesterday and she assured the american people that the borders are secure and closed up tight , so i'm sure we have nothing more to worry about lmao .

If anyone interpreted my ramblings as supporting the legalization of drugs then I failed to communicate clearly.
