This is a glitch in the Matrix kind of moment for me. Proudly waving the flags of the countries they DON'T want to go back to because everything is cozier in the FOREIGN country they are currently living at and complaining about.

The layers of stupidity and insanity of this people are something else. I can't believe this is real.
 
that seems like a really unwise decision. "alright, america. we have a US military asset, and multiple military members."

i don't think you'd even have to justify the surge into the capitol of colombia at that point.
It's definitely not a rational choice but we live in a world filled with irrational actors. There is always the possibility for something absurd to happen even if it is statistically unlikely.
 
As someone who isn't all that economically savvy, how fucked would our economy be if we tariffed Canada, Mexico, China, and Columbia, and just left those tarifs there
Pretty fucked short term. Long term though the USA has all the raw resources necessary for a completely internal market. But it would be nowhere near as efficient as the USA leveraging its position as a Continental Island at the crossroads of all international trade.

not to mention that according to the state department, they'd already agreed to take these faggots back, and now they're just trying to worm their way out of it by saying it wasn't an acceptable way to transport them, as if that's any reason to deny people reentry into their home country. hostages don't give a fuck what kind of car they're riding home in, they want to be back home.

it's so obvious and transparent that it's frankly ugly. it reeks of how people saw the US under biden, and it disgusts me. fuck you, cokeniggers, enjoy your fat price rises and shrinking economic sales. better hope your best buddy china is interested in buying all that shit that's about to rot in the ports, and you better hope BRICS doesn't crumble under trump's pressure. saudis are already licking his boots.
 
  1. Probably a bunch of illegals in that crowd given the Mexican flags.
  2. Trap them from escaping with ICE and police vehicles.
  3. Round 'em up.
  4. Deport them all.
Simple as.
You're not wrong but even people born here who have never been to Mexico act like this sometimes and I'm sure plenty of them in that mob are like that. ICE showing up to figure out would be funny.

If you're so proud of Mexico then hop on a free flight to Mexico City.

Canada: maple syrup prices skyrocket. some resources like oil and lumbar will go up, but not dramatically
Mexico: some automobiles will become more expensive, but they're all mostly affordable anyways
China: America would be fucked
Columbia: coffee and cocaine will go up in price. though cocaine is mostly duty free at this point so it shouldn't be affected as much.
 
Maybe instead of worrying about the Athenian Republic he should focus on the more immediate issue. Like his own countrymen that are now literally being held in chains. I would not blame him for bitching at all about the treatment of his citizens. That is his duty as their President. But this entire performative larp session about Colombia being some sort of cultural progeny of Cordoba and Rome as justification for getting into a dick measuring contest with the Americans is disgraceful. You can't win in a dick measuring contest with the Americans! Wtf is wrong with you? A more tactful leader would instead use the need for the USA to get illegals out to extract some sort of concession. Like maybe guaranteed purchases of Bananas and Coffee so the deported can get new jobs in Colombia? Something! But just trying to be the big man is guaranteed to fall to flat.
I hate to tell you this fren. Coloumbia hasn't exactly pumped out many rocket scientists. Or people with a 80+ IQ. He knows what being a big stronk man is. And how to do the best Colombian snow dust. Not much else rattling around in his noggin.
 
Looks like Petro is going to try to form some kind of a coalition.

what the fuck is honduras going to do? threaten to send more illegal immigrants to us? their country is run by gangs, it's one of the reasons people leave en masse. this dude is seriously going to destroy colombia's position in the world, as pathetic and lowly as it is, just because the stars and stripes told him to take his garbage back.

are you tired of winning yet? we didn't even have to do anything. :story:
 
Nigger, 3DS gave us puzzle game kino like never before. My Professor Layton games are still pristine.
Ok sure there were some good third party games but my point still stands on the first party ones.
If you're so proud of Mexico then hop on a free flight to Mexico City.
It's basically a meme at this point that the most proud nationalists live abroad.

They are inviting a CIA glow op intervention. That is what's happening. And if they get too uppity, the Teddy Roosevelt Big Stick method.
