Yes, legalizing drugs decrease violence South of the border. But it would also be a catastrophe for organized crime in the US and south of the border. It would also make our borders easier to patrol and carrode the infrastructure that makes illegal immigration possible. But a lot of people in organized crime have a fantasy that legalization should mean a surrender to organized crime. They imagine a world where they can make black market profits from drugs without worrying about law enforcement.
But who cares about any "economic factors" that drive illegal immigration? If a border patrol agent expresses sympathy for illegal immigrants, then they have no business being in the border patrol.
I'd like to know exactly what the guy said.
