I was wrong.
I was wrong or at least partially wrong on some of my analysis concerning Mexico. Like Hugo Chavez and his connection to drugs, and his commitment to destabilizing Mexico, I’m not exactly wrong, he wants a far left Mexico but his involvement with drugs is kind of a side note.I was all wrong on should we consider fire arms restrictions? If the Walkover Gun Scandal hadn’t broke I would have fallen for their plan. It appears the purpose of this operation was to get people like me to to question our current firearm laws. I may not know what the outcome of it will be but I pray the brightest light possible is shone on the scandal and the individuals behind it. I realize the kind of punishment I would like to see imposed but I am counting on our elected reps to do the right thing. No, I won’t be betting they will.
I was wrong to consider shooting drug users or legalizing drugs to solve Mexico’s problems. In a recent article, or should I say propaganda piece, the author asks: Where are the big drug king pins in America? The author (whom I have read before) drifts to the left, and ignores certain facts – such as what happens if you shoot a police chief in this country.
What’s going on in Mexico is not our fault and of course it took my all time favorite political analyst to straighten me out. I found this piece very informative and I’m sure you will, too.
What else am I wrong on? I’ll take a look and get back to you.

It is nice to see one lone convert to the real story. Sorry to see that it has taken so long. I have watched the absolute lying that goes on in Mexico, when describing their conquests (alleged) in the drug war. I have read President Felipe Calderon demand that the press and politicians not talk negatively about the situation in Mexico, aka the war zone. And I have witnessed the total lie that is being told by the Federal Gov’t in our country, the lies about the hordes of illegals coming into the country, the lies about the spill over into this country, and there is nary a person who listens. If I wasn’t living it myself I too, might question it, but believe me when I say you are being lied to, you are being robbed, and it just isn’t the cartel, Mexico has become the gates of heaven for every illegal from around the WORLD to enter the U.S., and it is the biggest supplier of ILLEGALS herself, to the U.S. The numbers are lies, the facts that the fed spews are lies, and funny man Senor pepe Obama, moats/gators, is the biggest liar of them all. Be very aware, Mexico is not our friend, she never has been.
After all my trips to the border and to Mexico It is embarrassing to think I was falling for Senor pepe Obama’s scam to get me to support his gun control scheme, or to think that it is our appetite for drugs that’s causing the carnage in Mexico.
Thank you for your comment.
In the above article I stated “I was wrong to consider shooting drug users or legalizing drugs to solve Mexico’s problems” while our apatite may drive the illegal market and it’s the culture of corruption in Mexico that leads to the rampant violence, we do have our own drug problem and it needs to be dealt with. Is there another solution then my two [shoot drug users or legalize drugs].
I’ve been reading my favorite author and I invite you to take a look to

I haven’t travailed to any of the countries mention so I don’t know how there policies work but if any one read’s this that has travailed to a country with liberal drug laws I would like to hear your opinion.
