With absolutely no help from the Federal Government and Obama in particular, should we expect to see the violence associated with the drug cartels inside Mexico start spilling over into this country?
In the northeastern border city of Nuevo Laredo, meanwhile, a series of shootouts Friday prompted the U.S. Consulate to warn American citizens in the city to remain indoors. The consulate said drug traffickers were throwing up roadblocks in at least one major avenue and were carjacking vehicles. “
We have received credible reports of widespread violence occurring now between narcotics trafficking organizations and the Mexican Army in Nuevo Laredo. We have credible reports of grenades being used,” the consulate said in a statement. “We advise all U.S. citizens in Nuevo Laredo to remain indoors until the security situation improves.”
Will the recent car bombing incident ushers in a new and more dangerous escalation resembling what our troops see in Iraq and Afghanistan? Has the potential for this escalation brought with it the possibility of seeing this sort of terrorism inside our borders.
This should serve as a wakeup call to President Obama and congress to beef up our enforcement of the border to make it as difficult as possible for the drug violence to spread over into our country.
Let’s hope our government gets the lead out and addresses this threat before we start those god-awful daily body counts normally reserved for war zones.
