I'm late to this discussion and don't expect anyone to read my comment. If America is so great why aren't we able to find the labs producing fentanyl and bomb them back to rare earth mineral. No empire in the past would of accepted such an attack and that's what it is. If it was a 50/50 if vodka killed you we would murder and imprison until it wasn't.

China is creating all of it and doing Opium wars 2.0 on the US. All the fentanyl precursors are sent from China to Mexico and Chinese Chemist train cartel goons to make fent and press pills.

The place to bomb would be Mexican border states and I’m not sure anyone wants about Iraq 2.0 in our back yard. An ex Mexican police/reporter I saw on podcast claimed the US military was the only one who could stop it.

The labs are smaller now and operate very lean so if one gets busted they have 5 others.

Yes its messy but we are fully capable of cursing any bloodline that produces poison for consumption for the next 100 years and we should. Red or Blue we should all be together on this. Drugs are a tough issue but fentanyl and the grift that involves murder of the most vulnerable is disgusting.

Trying to bomb your problems away is why some of us are neither red nor blue. The human cost of a literal war would be so so high, and mostly incurred on bystanders and children who have nothing to do with this. We have no right to inflict that horror, even to stop our own catastrophe, which it's debatable it would even do.

USA doesn't go to real war over citizen security interests. It only goes for business interests.

"We're going to solve the problem of people dying by killing a lot more people" is such a morally bankrupt idea, as well as not working.

> If it was a 50/50 if vodka killed you we would murder and imprison until it wasn't.

I urge you to look at what actually happened in the US prohibition era.
