“Mexican organizations that deal drugs such as cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamine and heroin”

That’s what i wanted to know- looks like they have the spectrum of drugs covered. It’s not just pot.

Pot's the big one though. The ONDCP recently estimated that around 62% of their gross proceeds from drug sales to Americans are from pot. The next most popular drug was cocaine. About 28% of their gross proceeds were coming from that, less than 8% from meth and less than 3% from heroin. Unlike cocaine, these people actually produce the marijuana they sell so marijuana accounts for probably more than 62% of their total net proceeds from drug sales to Americans.

Yes, but pot has the biggest market of all the drugs.
