U.S. risks 'another Benghazi' under Mexican rules barring agents from arming

U.S. agents on assignment in Mexico, where they are helping the local authorities go after violent drug cartels, are not allowed to carry weapons for their own protection, a situation that one lawmaker says could turn into “another Benghazi.”

Because the official role of U.S. agents south of the border is limited to intelligence gathering and training their Mexican counterparts, they are barred by Mexico from carrying weapons. The danger they face was underscored last month, when 15 Mexican National Police were arrested in connection with the attempted murder of two CIA agents in August.

Most all driven by U.S. demand for illicit recreational drugs.
Damn, a lot of Americans are pretty worthless.
People who think they need the stuff because they think life is so boring or dull simply have no imagination.
People who take the stuff to escape are cowards.
People who take the stuff to fit in need different friends and more balls.

I wonder if they ever wonder how many people may have died so that they can zone out for a few minutes, or are they so selfish that they really don't care?

No argument. Is it any wonder that our current POTUS is the way he is?
