I read an article yesterday about mexico becoming a security risk and how gang and drug cartels are getting out of control.
In India they had the same problem. In Mumbai (Bombay), there was a serious gang crime problem in the 1990's. The response was to form dozens of small cells of officers called "encounter squads." Each encounter squad was armed with Chinese SKS clones (automatic rifle), a vest with iron plate over the chest, and a 9mm handgun.
They would dress casual, and lurk in areas with known criminal activity. Then upon sight of criminal action, they would burst forward and gun down all the participants. These shootings were always ruled justified by the coroner, because the coroner understood the process.
In the first 100 days of encounter squads, over 2,400 enemies were gunned down, and crime plunged.
India still has this policy today and it's working well so far. One of the police official has alone encountered 105 criminals in his 20 years as a encounter specialist.
If this things doesn't stop then we are in trouble because this drug cartels will spread into united states.
John is correct. If you haven't seen the former President interviewed…you are in for a treat. Despite the people running to cross our borders…he believed and still believes we don't do enough to GET THEM IN and ALLOW THEM TO STAY. Never mind why many of them flee here…the ones trying to get away from the corruption.
