MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican troops have made an historic seizure of 15 tons of pure methamphetamine in the western state of Jalisco, the Mexican army said in a statement released late Wednesday. Soldiers discovered the huge cache in the town of Tlajomulco de Zuniga, a suburb of Mexico's second-largest city, Guadalajara. The statement had no other details but said it would publicly present the seizure on Thursday. Spokesmen answering the phone at the army's base in Guadalajara refused to comment further. No one could say late Wednesday what the largest seizure was previously in Mexico. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime said total meth seizures worldwide were 31 metric tons in 2009, the most recent figures available.

And where does most of that poison end up?....In our cities and towns where people are killed in traffic accidents, homes broken into and people robbed to support these drug habits. Just great!....I see an answer. Suppose we tell Mexico that we'll take care of the problem. They can just sit down and shut up!....

Some drug lord is going to be pissed off if he can’t get it back.

They must be needing to jack the price up. The market is glutted.

homes broken into and people robbed to support these drug habits. Crimes that are motivated by the drug-wara-inflated prices of those habits. Fight crime - relegalize drugs!

It would take too long to explain. But I would expect most people to understand sarcasm without it being spelled out in large letters.

Your attempted sarcasm fell flat because there's nothing behind it. Would a Prohibition-era story about Elliot Ness smashing barrels of hooch have been a sound basis for sarcastically mocking Prohibition opponents who thought the concept of personal liberty ought properly be applied to the choice to drink?

I think you’re trying to mock my personal liberty to use sarcasm from the comfort of my own home.
You’re not my nanny so I’ll just say “NO!”

Help! Help! My personal liberty to use sarcasm is being attacked! You have no right to make such personal decisions for me. Who do you think you are? Elliot Ness?
No! To the nannies!
