Brigitte García, 27, is the latest politician to be killed amid ongoing gang violence.
Archived version: https://archive.ph/04gzp
“ García focused on improving the quality of drinking water, installing sewers, and boosting local tourism through beaches.[5][6][7] She also indicated that she planned to develop agriculture and the fishing industry in the region.” (From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_García )
This is so tragic. She was young and focussing on positive change by the sound of it. A very troubled country but that’s drugs for you.
Limp dick cucks don’t like politician serving their community…
So they fixed it.
The US needs to legalize all drugs and regulate them. Stop funding drug cartels! Literally!
This gave me the mental image of the USA doing an easter egg hunt, and every egg they open they go, “damnit, another drug cartel!”

“Stop terrorists by legalizing terrorism!”
Drugs being illegal is literally the only reason cartels have a business model.
Right. And terrorism works because we comply with terrorists or suffer terrorism.
cartels are (sometimes) funded by illegal drugs.
if they werent illegal they wouldnt have a source of income to fund their shenanigans.
Woooosh
You thought it was a joke I missed?
Woooosh indeed.
I love I what you people asked to be blocked.
I wasn’t a part of this chain at all, but I’ll take a block if you’re handing them out.
Are you handing them out? Your IQ dropped mid sentence, so you stopped speaking English there. Either way, please block me.
Double wooooosh, lol
It’s a concept you don’t understand.
You should research drug cartel and CIA history. Fun stuff. Also military special forces and the cartel.
You should research terrorism and what happens when we negotiate with terrorists.
Except we do, all the time. It works. Isolating usually makes the terrorist you keep talking about. Then we have to negotiate and around and around we go.
There is one simple way to stop this. End the war on drugs. Legalize it!
Mexican cartels moved into industry, agriculture, and human trafficking. Avocados, limes, and construction, for example.
You planning on legalizing those next? You can’t legislate violent thugs away, you could legalize their entire enterprise and they’ll still have a place because the state ceded the monopoly of violence to them.
Yes, they have diversified. However, they initially moved into legal business to invest and launder the money from their primary source of income, drugs. So let´s start weakening them by taking that away.
Not sure how legalizing it would “take it away”, though? I mean, if it was legalized it would still need to be produced by someone, right? And these people have the experience, the infrastructure, etc…
Hahahaha it’s cute how you forgot about capitalism. That’s when the white people take over for the real profit.
A lot of people, make a lot of money and would not want this.
Yes, that´s the point, to take that source of money away from them.
The problem is that the people in power benefit from that money.
Yes, corrupt elites are indeed part of the problem.
That works for governments that have ability to enforce things. It’s a bit complicated in central and south America.
A huge point of legalizing is to take away a large percentage of gangs’ income by making legitimate businesses replace their supply chain over time.
Obviously criminals are still going to be deep in that as well, especially since they already have a lot of the supply already in place, but people are more inclined to work with police if they aren’t at risk for being hassled by them for their drug use and/or business with said drugs.
It’s basically death by a thousand cuts (over time) for criminal enterprises.
Also, if there’s no reason to be scared of the cops or the justice system (that’s rich!), you’re also more likely to cooperate with police if your legitimate drug business is being squeezed or compromised by criminals.
This should’ve already happened, of course, because now the problem really is the amount of money criminals have made off of the illegal drug trade, rivaling many nations. That money is being laundered and injected into legitimate businesses and investments, solidifying criminals’ leverage over the economy.
Exactly, the two main benefits of drug legalization
-
Remove main and most lucrative source of funding for criminals.
-
Users have a clean and safe supply without random fent mixed in.
-
Since Haiti and South America are now completely owned and operated by criminal idiots, why don’t we just drop a few bombs on them. THey have no culture left to contribute to the world to speak of. And we can do with less drugs coming into our country.
Since we don’t have the intelligence or manpower to stop any of it - let’s just destroy what’s left of those desecrated cesspools and be done with it.

She’s probably not done raising them, since this is clearly a kid talking.
