I was! Thanks for noticing. And thanks for actually being able to correctly spell "moronic".

When a youngster joins a gang, he eventually finds himself having many enemies he may not even know. As time goes on, as a result of negative behavior and delinquent activity in the community, he ends up having to watch his back and keep an eye open at every turn. There is no rest. The gangster youth becomes defensive and secretive at home. At school he tends to take on a negative attitude that is displayed with teachers, counselors and other authorities. In all public places he finds himself having to play the part of a tough one who doesn't care much about anything.
The young gangster becomes a puppet for his gang leaders and those in his gang.
As most gang members tell us, they want to do right but feel overwhelmingly pressured to do as members and leaders of the gang say. They must show up at places others designate and perform activities they know are wrong and get them in trouble. Someone else pulls the strings, and they perform.

Go through that and replace "gang" with "army" and see if it changes anything about that post. Sounds awfully similar to me.

Report: Mexican drug violence threatens U.S. security

(Reuters) - Mexico's drug cartels pose a clear threat to U.S. national security, Vice President Joe Biden said on Wednesday as the Obama administration named a drug czar to lead the U.S. fight against narco-trafficking.

Some 7,000 people have been killed in an upsurge in violence between Mexican cartels since January 2008. U.S. officials fear the violence is spreading into the southwestern United States, where there have been abductions and execution-style murders tied to the drug trade.

"Violent drug trafficking organizations threaten both the United States and Mexican communities," Biden said at a ceremony to nominate Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske as the country's new drug czar.

Biden said Kerlikowske, a 36-year law enforcement veteran, would oversee a strategy to improve information sharing, harness new technologies and increase the interdiction of drugs into the United States and guns and cash flowing into Mexico.

"It is a strategy we need ... in order to bring the situation under control, to protect our people, and to bring about the demise of the Mexican drug cartels," Biden said.

About 90 percent of all cocaine consumed in the United States comes through Mexico. It also is a major source of heroin, methamphetamines and marijuana in the United States, according to Homeland Security officials.

The death toll in the drug wars -- 1,000 in January this year alone -- has soared since Mexican President Felipe Calderon took office in late 2006 and sent tens of thousands of troops to fight the country's powerful cocaine cartels.

'Czar' is a Title Of Nobilty , specifically forbidden by the United States' Constitution...

But , not to fear , avowed Zionist Biden , at the bidding of RahmBO not to waste a crisis , will call for a renewed 'ban' on Citizens' "assault weapons" , to turn the tide...

It reads better if you replace "gang" with "government".
