I saw the documentary on History Channel last night. Riveting. Astounding how one criminal, backed by drug money paid by coke heads mainly in the US, could cause such terror and destruction in a nation. His death was a long-time coming. Too bad his place has been taken by communist thugs.

You can thank the War on Drugs for that.

Pablo rose to power in the exact manner of Al Capone or Joe Kennedy... except that old Joe was able to "sanitize" the family and rose to political prominence AFTER the failed War on Americans in the guise of alcohol prohibition ended. The OTHER gangsters we were gifted with by the first Prohibitionists stayed with crime and today are fattening on the profits garnered by the OTHER war on Americans, in the guise of (some) Drug Prohibition. And THIS is what you drug warriors want to continue to inflict on Americans.
