On Wednesday's The Five, Fox News host Jeanine Pirro demanded the US military bomb Mexican drug cartels since 'just say no' has been a big failure in the war on drugs.
Fact check Jeanine: Most fentanyl enters the United States in the hands of US citizens. That's just the truth, but don't let that get in the way of you masturbating to the thought of blowing up Mexicans. Jeez.
During a long discussion on fentanyl, co-host Greg Gutfeld took a very libertarian position of legalizing all drugs so that they can be controlled and regulated, which will cause fewer overdoses.
Jeanine Pirro went of-the-rails, demanding the US declare cartels as foreign terrorists so our military could invade Mexico and carry out military assaults to squash the threat.
"We need to have military strikes, and I don't care if the President of Mexico thinks we're rude or thinks it's an insult," Pirro yelled.
Gutfeld pushed back, saying that's why drugs should be legalized.
Geraldo Rivera gave the wingnut panel a dissertation on the failures of the war on drugs that started with Nixon, and discussed angel dust.
"And I tend to agree with Greg after trillions of dollars in the failed war on drugs. I don't think that prohibition is..." Rivera said but was interrupted by Pirro.
"Because we haven't done the war properly,' Pirro yelled. "Just saying no is not a war."
"What is a war then," Gutfeld asked.
"You take out the drug-pins," she replied.
Right-wingers think they are tough by wanting to kill everything in sight. Violence is their solution. But violence begets violence.
How did bombing Iraq work out?
Jeanine gets off on bombing brown people. And so does her audience.
