Children are being trained as soldiers so they can fight off the cartels. Please let this be FAKE NEWS! * On a related note: We have people fleeing their homes in Central America coming through Mexico trying to get to America. People are suggesting they stay in Mexico until they can be processed by U.S. Immigration. Can you blame those for not wanting to stay in Mexico? So last I heard Mexico was supposed to put their troops on the border to stop the flow of immigrants coming across Mexico's border trying to get into America. ("With Guatemala border deployment, Mexico's new national guard gets first big mission - The Washington Post" washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/with-border-deployment-mexicos-new-national-guard-gets-its-first-big-mission/2019/06/10/91564d14-8ad2-11e9-b6f4-033356502dce_story.html) Uh huh. So let me ask a stupid question. * Is it stupid for me to think that a National Guard is better equipped to fight the drug cartels than children?
In the midst of a cartel war zone children as young as six train to defend themselves against an army of encroaching sicarios.

I do not know if this is fake news, but @garymarsh6 correctly pointed out that children are trained to fight in many poor countries. We are seeing children fighting in Syria.

Children have been brainwashed and trained to fight in many poorer countries and massacred ahead of adult soldiers!

If you think about it being 18 years old is still young to be in our Army, 17 with parental consent. I don`t understand why the men wont fight and take it back. Its a sad situation..

That is the most ridiculous thing ever to even think of using children. If they do this then all I have to say it is criminal.
