Yahoo news aggregator is really, really bad. I couldn't actually get to the story. They must be wholly incompetent.

why do we send our troops the Middle East when we could send them to the border?

Because specific groups in the U.S. make unbelievable amounts of money off the drug war, that's literally what it is. Politicians get money and political clout by scaring up voters with the war, businessmen do everything from selling the drugs to the arms used by cops to intercept the drugs and then the prison space to house the average guy whose life is ruined in the middle, and cops get money from cashed seized and slick toys for being ''crime fighters''.
Quite literally the case of three of societies strongest groups picking on the weakest, the average person who is too dumb or too weak willed to not get caught up in the net. If this was a war about morals or something, you'd go to the hospital/rehab for drug problems of any kind or a safe place to use them, you wouldnt go to club federal prison for 40 years up river. Mexico is now a big narco state because the U.S. has built an entire industry that profits from it in various ways.

Which is why the government has literally helped the drug cartels

People say America is fucked beyond repair.
Mexico is ACTUALLY beyond repair. There's no fixing it. They're going to have to murder themselves down to 5% of the population before sanity regains control. All we can do is build a wall to keep their druglords and murderers out. Vote Trump.

I do not get your point. Take away guns on American soil while Mexico is the Wild West? Give Texas all the guns - fuck that!

That is a huge fallacy.

How exactly is it a fallacy?
