It is disheartening to know that the problems of an starving, unhealthy and
futureless humanity can only be solved sending troops. It is not a problem
of each country in particular it is about the world's Status Quo.  Each day
I see more and more signs of a kind of  dystopian world, probably similar
to that predicted by the old cyberpunk science fiction and that  is already
here with low probability to way back

All we need now is for Mexico to decide to send troops to the border as
well. Then some yahoo "volunteer border enforcer" standing on the US side
shoots someone on the other side of the border, maybe even a Mexican troop
(hey, they all look alike) and voila! the second Mexican American War (or
at least an international incident).

Could we use the military to play the role of Maxwell’s demon?   But for every 
smart or kind one that wants in push out a dumb or selfish one?  (I know, it’s 
not fair, Mexico shouldn’t be subjected to them.)  Also see the second chart in 
this 
editorial in light of 
this 
research.

What's more worrying to me are the presence and behaviors of the 
self-styled militias who patrol the border with no sanction by any of our 
governments.  They may be incensed by Trump's political rhetoric and open fire 
on the migrants.  They'll probably face the legal consequences of such ... but 
not before hurting innocent people.  It would be nice if the logistics provided 
by the military could help police our own idiot rednecks.  But my guess is they 
can't do that either.

Morality not mortality, of course. You did understand. Do not play the fool.

[FRIAM] a real threat

Just a few minutes ago Trump said it answering questions after his speech.
It is a real threat. I wonder if the nation who says to have the highest
mortality in the history of the humanity will let to his government to make
a massacre. I hope not.
