Liberty Under God
IS THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS ON
The Arizona/Mexico Border



Congress should
Help End the Mexican Civil WarHelp End the Mexican Civil War
The politicians have their typical answer, which is to do more of what hasn't worked. They want to spend more of your tax money trying to keep drugs out of the U.S. We've been doing this for nearly half a century, and it hasn't worked. Even people inside the government admit this.
    
Al Capone and the mafia got rich running alcohol during Prohibition. When Prohibition ended the violence ended too. Jim Beam distributors don't do drive-by shootings on outlets that sell Jack Daniels. And neither Jim Beam nor Jack Daniels are killing politicians, policemen, journalists, and private citizens.
    
Black-market drug profits fund criminal enterprises that threaten your safety, not only at home and in Mexico, but around the world. Taliban warlords in Afghanistan and Pakistan fund much of their operations through the illicit drug trade.
     The solution to the coming spillover of the Mexican Drug War is simple: Stop doing the same failed thing over and over again. Do something different. End drug prohibition in the United States, and thereby defuse the Mexican Civil War and defund the terrorists in Afghanistan.

The problems making the news about the Arizona/Mexico border are not caused by hard-working Mexicans who love their families and do good work on construction sites, agricultural fields, hotels, restaurants, or a thousand other businesses. The problems are not caused by the lack of jackbooted thugs keeping such people from crossing the border.

The problems are caused by the unconstitutional "War on Drugs."

The Federal Government has declared that drugs may only be sold by organized criminal syndicates and Mexican drug cartels.

Brilliant policy.
