BC,
We made the mess.
That can be argued one way or the other.

But let's say for the sake of argument that you're right, and that Haiti is "our mess."

What do you suppose we should do about it? GTFO of Haiti? Apparently not, given how you ridiculed Brandon for doing just that.

How about we send in the military, like 5K-10K troops, impose martial law, and help Haiti build up their own police force? One of the links you posted advocated doing just that.

OR ... we should elect sNeAkErMaN tRuMp, because his very presence would put fear into the hearts and minds of the Haitian thugs, AMIRITE?
