The gravest? I doubt that. One of the threats, maybe, but hardly the gravest. The biggest threat right now is probably another republican president in 2008. Aisde from that, the budget is pretty serious. I'd like to know how we plan on paying that back. another would be the consolidation of power in the executive branch. While the right to bear arms may be on the top 100, or maybe top 50, it's not #1.
Besides, the Mexicans are a clean, industrious people who are an important part of our economy. While drug dealers aren't always fun, they do know that their biggest source of money is the American people. If they want to make money off us, they need to appear to be a far away threat, at the very least. Killing people here will shock us from apathy and into action. They don't want that. Sales would fall, and we could send a lot of military their way.
