GB is the NATO designation for Sarin.I believe Mr. Edgeplay was using an abbreviation for "Ground Burst".

Using US military forces to enforce the border could also arguably violate the Posse Comitatus restrictions on the military, as it would be using them to enforce civil and criminal law.
As would I. In fact, I think that the elite's control over the USA is too complete for them to truly be opposed democratically. So the options are likely what you describe above or the eventual elimination of the USA in all but name, if even that.If a man were to gather up our all media elites, financial elites, political elites, and turn them to ash, I would call him Caesar.
That's a war crime.GB is the NATO designation for Sarin.
As far as I am aware, Mexico has decriminalized drug usage to a certain extent, but not fully.What about Mexico? Does it legalise drugs?
That said, I can see one problem, the Cartels have bigger ability to produce, they would swallow YOU guys up in-terms of who sells drugs better
Opium | 2 gr. | |
Diacetylmorphine or Heroin | 50 mg | |
Cannabis Sativa, Indica or Marijuana | 5 gr. | |
Cocaine | 500 mg | |
Lisergida (LSD) | 0.015 mg | |
Powder, granulate or crystal | Tablets or capsules | |
MDA, Methylenedioxyanfetamine | 40 mg | A unit weighing no more than 200 mg. |
MDMA, dl-34-methylenedioxy-n-dimethylphenylethylamine | 40 mg | A unit weighing no more than 200 mg. |
Methamphetamine | 40 mg | A unit weighing no more than 200 mg. |
Depends. Arguably, that's the case for active (Federal) military forces. National Guard (and I would presume State Guard) units are exempt from this restriction when operating under the direction of the Governor, however.Using US military forces to enforce the border could also arguably violate the Posse Comitatus restrictions on the military, as it would be using them to enforce civil and criminal law.
I think that legalizing drugs might hurt the Cartels, but I don't think it would end them. They would presumably have a bunch of money left over they could use to diversify their assets as you said. They wouldn't be anywhere near where they are today, but they wouldn't be gone. Part of why my initial thoughts were a two-pronged solution involving legalization (to weaken the Cartels) and then armed force to wipe them out afterward.I wonder, if we abandoned the War on Drugs and allowed controlled, legal access to these substances, could we undercut the cartels enough financially? I mean, they have the resources to presumably diversify, but would they find another product as lucrative as cocaine?

Legalizing nearly every drug (fuck PCP and krocidile) would hurt them and limit thier ability to grow further in the US, but it won't be anything close to a death blow.
I'm absolutely sure the big pharma can make drugs in more pure, safe, and guaranteed to not be mixed up with random crap form, and produce them in industrial quantities.Plus they had time and resources to grow, even when regulated, odds are NO ONE in the USA can exceed them in-terms of producing more and better drugs
And they can probably easily bribe government officials when it comes to working conditions for prostitutes
At this point, no. They have grown powerful enough to parasite on any industry they like in their power centers, and even the government, in addition to controlling most, if not all major non drug based illegal activities. They don't just have resources to diversify, they are already doing it since a long time.I wonder, if we abandoned the War on Drugs and allowed controlled, legal access to these substances, could we undercut the cartels enough financially?

What i'd worry about is that cartels can still make them cheaper and available even to people who won't be allowed (or can't afford) to have them legally.
Only the Army & Air Force, the USMC & Navy can enforce the border no problem.Using US military forces to enforce the border could also arguably violate the Posse Comitatus restrictions on the military, as it would be using them to enforce civil and criminal law.
What, they all died?Only the Army & Air Force, the USMC & Navy can enforce the border no problem.
The USMC is already guarding Heaven's Gates, anyways.
No, but if a Marine dies & didn't receive a dishonorable discharge, they are put on guard duty until after the end times.What, they all died?
HEAVEN — A Marine charged with standing post at Heaven’s main gate says he can’t wait until the Apocalypse destroys all of creation so he can finally leave the service and grow a beard, sources confirmed today.
Lance Cpl. George Yanosy, who in his corporeal form was killed fighting somewhere for some important reason, has become increasingly disgruntled since the fine print on his signing bonus endeared him to the Marine Corps for perpetuity.
According to Yanosy, most of the service’s rules are outdated and don’t make sense to his generation of supernatural beings.
“I’m made of a freakin’ ethereal mist, I don’t know why He makes such a big deal about shaving,” he said, noting that despite his lack of a physical form, he still gets razor burn every morning.
Yanosy says he is also perplexed as to why, in a world where all communication is done instantaneously via cosmic love waves, he has to do a radio check at the top and bottom of every hour.
“I mean, we live in a metaphysical spirit world. What does He expect me to do with this 240?” asked Yanosy, referring to the machine gun that would have absolutely no effect on any of the immortal beings that occupy His realm. “And the food sucks.”
Yanosy’s platoon sergeant, Basilone the Archangel, says his contract clearly stipulates that he has to serve until the End Times.
“We told him, ‘once a Marine, always a Marine,'” said Basilone. “You think that ends just because you’re a manifestation of divine light?”
Yanosy admits that even though his current form transcends emotion, leaving the Marine Corps following Armageddon will be bittersweet.
“I’ve had some good times in the Marines, but there’s other things I want to do with my eternal existence,” said Yanosy, contemplating life after the Corps in a universe where time will cease to exist. “Travel, visit Asgard, maybe start a t-shirt company.”
At press time, an army of demons had invaded Heaven after Yanosy fell asleep on post.
What, they all died?

Drugs are a serious issue, I don't think there's any real idea though how to deal with it: I'm also starting to think legalization is going to be a much less effective solution: especially if "legalization" is pared with an understanding of "moral approval".
They might start wearing uniforms. By the looks of it, they are becoming the de facto government in parts of Mexico.
I'd certainly take a deployment to chill out with the best bbw (big beautiful wall) over going to Syria or Afghanistan any day.
Mexico will ask for help the minute the capital is threatened.
Before that polititions will stand on 'principle' but the moment their at risk they will ask for help.
to avoid yet another repeat a few decades down the road, we're going to have to annex the place.
