America is too isolated and selfish to organize and do anything to change our situation and politics. We are being layed off of jobs and losing homes at an alarming rate. Our finances are being raided by large corporations i.e. the oil companies, the health care industry, and other companies like Enron. Did anyone care when their parents and grandparents were losing their retirement savings to the corruption of these companies? I watched them crying in hearings in the US Senate, and no one did a thing. The Black community is effectively being destroyed by racism, discriminatory practices and policies (i.e. the War on Drugs), and a lack of the sense of community and self worth that is being perpetuated by the media. The problem is that no one cares until these things happen to them. It will take the descent of a respectable amount of the population into insanity for anything to happen and it will only result in death and imprisonment at the hands of the gov't or total anarchy outside of protected zones for the wealthy. I believe it will be the latter, and I believe it will happen shortly after America ends the occupation of Iraq and the troops return home to an economy in shambles.

In short, to answer the original question: nothing. We have had Presidents assassinated when we were a better country than we are now.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! The War on Drugs and racism is destroying the "black community" AHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH!!

I grew up in a border city (EL Paso, TX.). This is nothing new at all. I recall one incident in which the state police had a firefight with the federal authorites. Can you imagine if state troopers shot it out with the FBI? Mexico is corrupt to the core.

Mexico is becoming a failed state. The drug cartels, the illegal immigrant trade, and the kidnapping trade are reaching the point where the government can't govern any longer.

Attempts by the clean members of the police and government to get back control are being assassinated in great numbers. Candidates for political office are being bought off, threatened, or killed before elections and after. Newspapers and all the media in Mexico are under threat or attack.

Here in San Diego there was a special news report last week on the kidnapping trade that is going on between Tijauan and Ensenada. There are hundreds of people being kidnapped including many American and other tourists. The average ransoms of KNOWN victims in these cases have now reached accumulated totals of SIX MILLION DOLLARS A MONTH. We are even getting Americans kidnapped within the San Diego area and taken back to Mexico where they are held. Many are killed with or without ransom payments.

The US needs to quickly close the border and shut off the drug trade ($25 billion), illegal immigrant trade (1.5 million x $2000), and kidnapping business ($ billions).

Business, investment, tourism, etc. is staying out of Mexico, and the native population is being held under the thumb of corrupt and extorsionist police, bureaucrats, and drug lords and criminal gangs. Decent people there are being extorted, deprived of legitmate work and capital investment, declining public services, increasing costs, increasing unemployment, and eventually pushed into finding a decent life across the border in the USA.

Mexico is one of the richest countries in the world, and one of the biggest oil producers in the world (oil is now $120/barrel).

Any decent honest Mexican who tries to expose the spiraling situation in the media or run for office or do diligent police work is threatened or killed.

Mexico is in a spiral that it can't get out of without the eventual equivalent of a civil war. A civil war that the US will eventually have to back in its own interest as all this is spilling over the border into the US.

Us don’t have to close the border to control de drug cartels giving problems, you want to help? Stop buying so much fucking coke, marijuana, dope and any other drugs produced and sell by the cartels....

Can’t you even see that all the money and power these cartels have comes from you guys pockets? Are you able to see that amigo?

Your country is a fucking junkie house, you guys are making these cartels what they are, they can buy your whole fucking country with one day sale in NY!!

Want to do something about illegal immigration? Stop hiring the immigrants!! Who will go to the Us if there are not jobs for them, you guys took away the schools and medical care in some states but the jobs are there still…how idiotic is that?

You want others to solve you own problems and you find the stupidest solutions like building a massive border when the solution is in your own turf…damn idiots!!
