Fifteen signs


One hundred and fifty years ago, the American southwest was a lawless region.  This was the fodder for John Wayne movies and Louis Lamour novels.

 

Today, parts of the American southwest have become lawless again.   In the nineteenth century, technology did not exist and the population was sparse.  Law enforcement was stretched over vast areas.  Today, we have technology.  There is a sizable population there and technology does things we can still barely imagine.

 

The difference today?  We have a government that does not care about protecting this country or its citizens.

 

The most recent example of this popped up a few days ago.   The Mexican drug cartels, the same ones that recently murdered an American citizen on a border lake, sent assassins into Arizona.

 

Why?

 

They are upset that bandits are stealing their loads of marijuana, heroin and cocaine, destined for American markets.

 

At a certain level, it is justice, having one group of drug dealers take out another.  But for America, this is a dangerous turn.  Mexican cartels have been sending drugs into America at an alarming rate.  One of their routes of choice is the Velkol valley in Arizona. 

 

Paul Babeu is the Sheriff of Pinal County says there have already been drug smuggling related murders.  He knows how bad the situation is.  He requested the Federal Government send three thousand soldiers to come in and disrupt the drug smuggling routes. He notes the cartels have spotters in the hills and the spotters and assassins have equipment, at least equal to anything law enforcement has and probably as good as anything the military would have.

 

No matter where people fall on the issue of illegal immigration, you would think that everyone would agree stopping drug smuggling into this country is a good idea.  Stopping drug cartels from importing violence into this country is a good idea.

 

In response to Sheriff Babeu’s request, the Obama regime sent him fifteen signs to put up, warning people that entering certain areas was dangerous due to drug smugglers.

 

Perhaps those signs should have warned Americans how dangerous the Obama regime is.

What I propose is a high, double-fence around Washington, DC to prevent any elected official from leaving ~~ or prevent any newly-elected or re-elected Representative or Senator from entering!!! The ban would also include any/all "officials" and "czars" appointed by the current president ~~ and include all "official" and/or "unofficial" presidential "advisors," relatives, and butt-kissers!

Perhaps a lesson from history is in order.

It is well know the entire effort of Prohibition in the 20s and 30s did little but enrich organized crime, in fact it all but created it in its modern form, while no level of enforcement proved anything but a minor speed bump to criminal profits.

To gut the beast of the Mexican drug cartels we must remove their main source of income which has always been marijuana just as the main source of income was removed from the crime bosses when prohibition was repealed. Will there still be criminal drug activity? Of course there will as some things will just never be legal, wise or foolish just a political reality. But we can deliver a massive strike to their coffers in one simple move and open up an entire industry base that the hemp plant provides outside its recreational and medicinal values.

Guns will not work, law enforcement has failed and always will, its a simple stroke of the pen and we sign the death warrant of much of the crime in our beloved land.

Adapt or die, time to decide.

Simple, elegant and obvious solution.. HOWEVER there is too much graft greed and corruption in our law agencies, from judges to the beat cop to the president all pd off to varying degrees. Yes it would [produce jobs, tax revenues and eliminate the need for all this "DRUG WAR" stuff and lighten the prison load for victimless crimes. TOO SIMPLE< TOO DIRECT>TOO STUPID general populace who are swayed by the politican crying "more violent crime", "potheads are violent", etc.

Somehow we must change the system that is in place and extract ourselves from this insanity. We are now using all peaceful means possible or at least so it appears. There must come a time when simple direct solutions once again become the way of our land.

This is not a matter of wealth or convenience it has become a matter of national survival. No more dodging reality for the good people its time to decide between life and liberty or the death of liberty and perhaps much more.

I will fight on whatever battlefield presents a path to freedom, I much prefer the field of ideas and common sense.

I have signed the "Manhattan Declaration" in defense of marriage, life and religious liberty. I pledged everything I have in defense of these American ideals. It is a start. We have to draw a line in the sand!

Why Doesn't The State Of Arizona Call Out Their Miltia?

The Governors of all of the United States have that power.

It is time that the American Citizens take back their country

There is no recognized state militia to call out. we only have the national guard.
they need to be formed and made legal-at least for the state that they are in.
the feds will fight this perhaps with physical force. they know our only real alternative is to fight. our military will balk at firing on its own citizens try ing to defend themselves. so that is why 14 state governors have already been threatened with charges of treason if they try to form state militias. Obama sees that as his only real threat since he controls all 3 branches of government right now.
What to do? i do not know.. it seems open rebeliion or a military coup is the only answer. elections will be rigged or at the very best congress and the senate will grind to halt with nothing happening except our slow death.

We can't fight a war with legalities, political correctness, and playing nicey nice. And we are at war. We have to fight fire with fire.

The troops need to be right along the border. Given all powers and responsibilities of the local law enforcement and the border patrol and given one order. If people crossing the border illegally do not stop when told then the troops have will take all measures to stop them, including shoot to stop.

I got an idea, granted it is not an original one. it might work though, but we may get flack from certain groups within and without our borders. First, anymore terrorist attacks on out soil or on our citizens, this group will be hunted and when found the area they are in will be annihilated. harsh, yes, but it might get the point across that terrorism by any group will not be tolerated. bring all our troops home and set up bases along the border to "deal" with the illegal immigrant problem and the drug cartels. Any thoughts on this. I know it is harsh and would be met with a lot of criticism. So please start criticizing and lets get a solution that will work. I would even be willing to take the ones who are here illegally, who are truly trying to give themselves and family a better life and that are willing to work hard and not live off the system a chance to become citizens.
