I will get to that in the demand thread.
You should just go ahead and hit the demand thread.
That's where the real meat is for most of us Americans.

Just so I'm clear, you want to replace training time with border duty and school patrol?
Correct. They can take their classes on site. Train on site while rotating shifts.
quote:
When will they actually train?
On those sites. Drill weekends can include physical training, advanced training, and work, for their military job or Military Occupational Specialty (MOS).
All of that can be completed.

It's clear that there are a few willing to talk about the actual issue on the supply side. As stated here in this thread, some just want their drugs for personal reasons.
That's what the US is up against.
But yes, it's time for the demand side.

And they're going to travel from their home state, assume operational control, conduct training and qualifications, patrol the border, and return home over a weekend?

You think this problem started happening in the 80's and just blew up?
You arent aware that we started this "war" because of racism ? In 1875 the first anti drug law was passed on smoking opium due to the Chinese. However drinking and injecting it was an exception due to white people using it in that way.
Then in 1914 we outlawed cocaine and opium because the negro was using.
In 1937 marijuana was illegal in 46 states because it gave Mexicans -super human strength. LMAO!!
In 1972 Nixon started the "War on drugs" Since then we have been locking people ever since. The entire sentencing is based on racism.
This isnt a just a war on drugs. Its a war on racism.
In the 80's when Reagan had the Just Say No campaign going, crack cocaine made its debut.
I suggest you read Dark Alliance by Gary Webb. He exposed this very thing with the Iran-Contra. His 2 gun shots to the head was called a suicide, if that makes any sense.
You have completely lost it if you dont believe we fabricated this whole war.

Controlling the supply side is not a huge concern depending on your position on the demand end.

What most people don't understand is that the moving of drugs aren't done by dealers and gangsters. Most drugs are ran by business men who love CASH

The original post and replies are among the stupidest things I've ever read on this board.

Where there is demand, you'll find a supplier.

No one wants to talk to you because it has be proven time and time again the "supply side" argument is horseshite.
Nixon's war on drugs is a huge failure.
Reagan doubling down on it is a huge failure.
Building a wall will solve nothing. Going after cartels will solve nothing. You are a simpleton that lives in a bubble. I'm sorry.

There is no war on drugs. Police don't want to stop the flow of drugs into communities, the govt doesn't want to either, but profit and benefit from things just as they are right now.

I would think it would be their 2 weeks per year. Makes more sense. That's what, 100 weeks?

Since he specifically said "drill weekends" I'm going to disagree.

A logistical nightmare. They're going to pack a months worth of work into one weekend. Not to mention the active duty personnel that would be needed for this fiasco. Again where's all of the money going to come from? We're talking about a billion dollars probably just to get started. Her so-called solution isn't a solution at all. It sounds like OP's been hitting the pipe a little too much as it is.

here was more in that than where the drugs come from.
- Cartel members and gang members cross that border. Stop that while addressing the gangs here and you reduce the "car lots"
- Coming from mexico the country isn't the issue.. crossing that border is the issue.
- I addressed the cargo ships too.
You did not answer the question.
You do not understand the the supply side.
How can you stop what you do not understand?

So, I saw where the questions was asked but no answer. Is the OP a "conservative"? Cause that shite sounds crazy expansive and looks to be a massive increase in big government control.
