  • "THBT The United States should not nuke Mexico."
  • Nuke (verb) attack or destroy with nuclear weapons.
  • Mexico: Mexico,[a][b] officially the United Mexican States,[c] is a country in the southern portion of North America. It is bordered to the north by the United States; to the south and west by the Pacific Ocean; to the southeast by Guatemala, Belize, and the Caribbean Sea; and to the east by the Gulf of Mexico.

The United States I understand is an organization or corporation titled North America in the the northwestern hemisphere if I'm not mistaken.

This thing exists, functions within the economy and commerce system to support the livelihood and lives of many inhabitants.

Being that is the apparent goal, otherwise there would be no civilization or growing society breaking into the so called United States, there's an aim , there's an objective .

In order to maintain as is, there has to be preservation.

The beings looking to preserve life should defend it by what it takes which is counter attacking that attacking it.

Why? It's because life can't be preserved or the beloved United States, whatever, without doing so.

Just simple computation arithmetic.

None of these statements from con are arguments for nuking Mexico. My argument is that: 
  1. Mexico is an innocent country, and a trade ally of the US, thus, they have done nothing to deserve being wiped out. The level of devastation this will cause is critical, and Mexico has not wronged the US nor is in any conflict with them. 
  2. Mexico is close enough to the US, that American citizens will also be impacted by this (those closer to the southern border) thus we would be unnecessarily harming our own citizens. 
  3. This action will set dangerous international precedents on the use of nuclear weapons for convenience.
