GOP talk of military action in Mexico sparks dire warnings - Lemmy.world

Rising GOP support for the U.S. taking unilateral military action in Mexico against drug cartels is increasingly rattling people on both sides of the border who worry talk of an attack is getting normalized. Wednesday’s Republican presidential primary debate featured high-stakes policy disagreements on a range of issues from abortion to the environment — but found near-unanimous consensus on the idea of using American military force to fight drug smuggling and migration.

You don’t need guns to kill the Cartels. You need to legalize drigs and regulate them. The war on drugs is what made the cartels what they are today.
That’s a naive view. Do you think cartels will dismiss themselves at that point? Or that mobs will somehow become lawful citizens?
Positive scenario for cocaine and opiates? Sure , theyre used medically everyday in hospitals and clinics by doctors. Thats a positive, no? This is why theyre not schedule 1 because they literally have a positive medical use. Question is can you respond without moving the goal posts you set because if you used such a tactic I would block you for not being a serious adult.
Leave those cases to medical professionals. They already have access to opiates, by the way.
