    This is a valid point.

    Or legalize and regulate them, so you could operate a drug business without needing massive amounts of weaponry, where corporate takeovers could be handled by people in suits instead of in camo.

    From racism and homophobia to global thermonuclear war. Either Mark is a sociopath or this is some massive Jonathan Swift long-con he's been playing on everyone.

    Yeah, obviously. But the notion that we should declare war on someone because we buy their products is a bit daft.

    Nuking Mexico would wreak havoc with the USA-Mexico soccer rivalry.

    No shit. Even if he gets it past the Mexican border, he still has to get the gun past the the borders in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Costa Rica before reaching his "surfing" destination, and then cross all of those borders again on his return trip.

    How much common sense does it take to realize you don't tote a shotgun on a trip that requires twice negotiating five different Central American border crossings? I'm having trouble conjuring up too much sympathy for that kind of foolishness.

    Of course.

    Would they retaliate by launching bags of urine at us?

    I thought he was talking about Coca-Cola hecho en Mexico, aka the good stuff with real sugar not high-fructose corn syrup.

    Maybe we can collect all the guns we can find here and send dog over the border with them. ... and solve multiple problems with one shot (no pun intended).

    It doesn't solve the Canada problem, but I'm thinking there is a tidy North Korean solution for that one.

    Mebbe we should JR to deal with the Mexicans. Based on an email exchange I have had with him over the past day or so he won't make any more sense to them than he does to me. That might solve both problems!
