    1. You have to be jesting? When a person become a drug addict he/she is turned into a costly "robot". This robot will cost society a mass of things. Most addicts (of all kinds, including tobacco and alcohol) "abuse" these drugs because they have "problems." Go down among the so-called homeless anywhere in the world and you will see what I mean. These people are at the bottom stages... and BTW, many are mostly drug addicts or mentally ill because of alcohol and drugs...not because of lack of jobs.
      Legalizing drugs (including pot) will cause serious problems ... trust me.... like alcohol, people will soon take this opening and go far beyond in "abusing" the various cannibinols in pot. Legalizing pot will not stop there... I know human nature too well.

    4. 11:38 drug addiction is an escape achieved through unconsciouness, a dulling of the senses, unless you are going for a high that soon starts leaving you dumber and dumber.
      people should be able to sue their pusher, their pimp for over time and wages or damages, 5h as t could take care of the proselitizing of minors.and control the population, too many crooks on the loose, but the crooks in power make shit possible for all without accountability.

    3. 3:26 Not all of the US, but "as you see below, is as above"
      In the wise words of Mostradamus.
      The mexican corruption, police, cartels, in government, banking and business, reflects its creators on the US, even the hippiadas came from the US to Mexico when they were trying to introduce drug trafficking and psichedelia for the masses to LatinAmerica and the Bellbottoms to Pablo Escobar's big fat ass with help of US beloved nazi pet boy Klaus Barbie...

    1. The fenatnyls and meth addictions can be blamed on US legislators who sold their arses to BIG US Pharma for campaign donations from their lobbyists.
      Mexican narcos just got a contract to keep supplying the orphaned addicts, and the formulas offahored from Big Pharma, there were amphetamine traffickers before Nacho Coronel, like the Cardenas Amezcuas, persecuted by the mexican government because generales of the armies wanted the whole business, like governor of jaliskas Marcelino Garcia Barragan and his son javier garcia paniagua director of the DFS because "daddy was powerful"

    3. 4:34 You are right. The politicians, laws, and then distributors of pain pills for 15 years with no problemo set the stage for that which narcos are feasting from as the DEA began its crackdown on doctors and distributors. Of course the politicians with their campaign donations got away with no recourse, not even questions from the DEA or legislative committee.

  5. Many news outlets are reporting a decline of manufacturing/ distribution of narcotics due to covid. However, the necessity of goods to stock American pantries indicates an opportunity. Needless to say this shipment of stone tile is not an essential element thus pulled for secondary inspection.

      Orders from above, unless they have a powerful union that won't sell them down the river

    2. I did not know they stock up illegal drugs at pantries. Nevertheless, I thought they are stashed in so called safe houses.
