Anybody have any idea why the sale of marijuana is profitable enough to cause the Mexicans to plant it in our national parks?

They finally noticed. I knew at least 3 guys (not Mexicans either) with “fields” in Saguaro National Monument when I was in high school, that was over 20 years ago. Wide open spaces with no traceable deed are a great place for illegal activity, you probably won’t be there when the cops find it, you don’t own it so they can’t bust you that way, and unless you’re a complete moron even if they catch you walking into it you’ve got lots of plausible deniability.

The War on Some Drugs has pushed Americans to outsource their drug production to armed criminal gangs, and this is just a predictable result. Wouldn’t you rather people buy pot in the same way they buy cigarettes, openly and with taxes down at the corner store? Wouldn’t you rather deal with a guy like Al Gore, bragging about how he grew tobacco, than with a violent gangster?

As things are, probably it will take the death of an innocent hiker to convince Washington to do whats necessary and to do it soon. With the incoming regime, it probably won't.
As an aside, it's interesting that the federal Drug War JBTs are AWOL on this as well. I guess they're too busy raiding the pot farms of white hillbillies in places like the hollers of Eastern Kentucky to have time to take on the wetbacks running them in California national parks.

Well, you see, here you can grow and distribute illegal contraband AND receive tax credits, food stamps, free health care and SS once you retire.
Mexico on the other hand...

I wondered why so many liberals were against the ban on concealed carry by those with concealed carry licenses in national park. Last summer it became a big deal when the NRA backed it and the liberals opposed it.
I guess the reason was they didn't want citizens to interfere with their drug supply.

OK folks...there's your "dedicated environmentalists". It seems their love of the environment stops at the business end of an AK-47.
I cannot believe this is going on in our own National Parks by people who are probably illegal aliens, and the feds just sit there. However, If you're a legal American and decide you want to hang a confederate flag on your own property, they're all over you like stink on s---.

Unfortunately, the environmentalists who should be defending the parks dont care that our natural heritage icons have been invaded and despoiled. Of course not; they are leftists first and foremost. Environmentalist, gay rights activist, civil rights activist, etc., are just disguises worn by Marxists. Once they have won the struggle (and they may very well have won in this last election), the sheep's clothing will be discarded and the wolf will step out into the light.

Supply and demand. As long as there is a demand, there will be a supply. The sellers set the price so long as sales continue.

For a while I was ambivalent re/ WOD. Not any more. Let “recreational” drug use proceed as people see fit.
However, no handouts for them. No health care for them. They get lung cancer from smoking weed? Tough. Their bad. They get sinus issues from too much blow? Tough. Their suffering is their own doing. They can’t hold a job because they are wasted zombies? Tough. They can live in a van down by the river.
It’s their life; far be it for the government to interfere.

When beheadings start showing up in the national parks...maybe...just maybe they may fly a helicopter over to make sure the criminals are ok.
