This past Saturday in the city of Juarez, Mexico a family on their way home after a party were gunned down. The family were American citizens & the wife worked for the US Consulate. The wife was 5 months pregnant when she was riddled with bullets. Her husband was killed as well in the hail of gunfire. Miraculously their 1 year old daughter in the backseat survived. Across town that same night a Mexican father was gunned down in his car & his two young children wounded in another hail of gunfire. Drug cartel hitmen are "suspected" in the twin crimes. 2,500 people were killed last year & over 18,000 since 2006 when Mexico's President declared war on the Drug Cartel's. These were not the first Americans to be killed since this started & likely not the last. The Drug Cartels are completely out of control & slaughter innocents without a second thought. They are also known to behead victims to send a sign. I guess it's not only in just one part of the world or just one rogue element of a religion that has a monopoly on brutality & in-human behavior. Our President says that he is outraged over this. If so, actions speak louder the words. We have all heard his words...it's time to make some decisions & act. I see two options here...
1) Once the FBI working with the Mexican authorities confirms which cartel was responsible for this Obama orders a Special Ops team (SEALS, DELTA, NIGHTSTALKERS) to hunt down these monsters & kill them with extreme prejudice. Wipe out the entire cartel. Send a message "game over". No arrests, Miranda rites read, Geneva Convention adhered to...simply remove them from the planet. All of them. Just taking out one or a few will do nothing. Remove them all.
2) Send our top cop Eric Holder down to Mexico unarmed with his badge & a big bag of plastic military grade zip-tie handcuffs & start making arrests. Remember Eric, the Texas Rangers had a saying...One riot, one Ranger! Not for nothing, but what did they have on the great Eric Holder? The man who arrested Al Qaeda single-handled & by using US rule of law prosecuted them to the full extent of the law in Manhattan blocks fro where 9-11 happened just to prove his moral superiority!
So Mr. President please pick one of the options. SEALS worked well for you with the Pirates...but then again...what does a battalion of SEALS have on Holder...Eric Holder. Plus worst comes to worse & the Holder option doesn't work out...you can always send in the SEALS. Remember...they leave no man behind...so they can always bring back what's left...
