America apparently has an enormous appetite for drugs...if Arizona and California tested for drug use anyone signing up for food stamp or disabilities programs I imagine the flight of AZ and CA residents to states where drug testing wasn't in force would be noticeable.

for drug use all recipients of Food Stamps and those claiming Disability before they are made eligible

They quickly learned that the US radar systems installed have trouble distinguishing low flying, slow going ultralights from ground vehicular traffic.

The profit on one haul dwarfs the cost of the ultralight which can be abandoned. Crossing in areas where windmills may be present is even easier I’d expect.

The dirtbags in DC must be consuming a lot of drugs also.

The best thing that could happen to this Country is for them all to get a "bad batch".

It shouldn’t be too technically challenging to get drones to do the flying.

If Obama were giving an outdoor speech at Petco Park they’d darned sure find a way to seal-up the airspace.

There is a lack of desire to fix the problem. I am pretty sure that all they would have do is tell Juan Valdez that we have a sent up drones to protect the border and he would have difficulty getting anyone to want to fly.

Apparently, the drug smugglers weren’t giving a big enough cut to the Feds and their banker buddies.
When it comes to drug imports, the Feds don’t like competition.

This is not much different from Mena AR and the dirty dealing going on back then. Planes full of drugs landing unopposed in the U.S. is a part of any democrat administration. One more source of democrat funding.

FUBO, FAD, down with the democrat party

LA has a plethora of RC model plane shops served by quite original designers and builders, who I claim started this whole drone business as their "models" grew ever larger and more capable.

Frankly, I always wondered if they were into smuggling! Why risk a pilot?

But Ultralights and light sport planes? A whole new dimension in aviation. Some can easily carry hundreds of pounds, many are made of radar-resistant fiberglass and spruce and can land in a a hundred yards and take off in two. Amazing. Put it all down in the column next to the Colombian fiberglass submarine smuggling fleet.

Build your own?

I am sure that officials are complicit in a lot of this.

Lots of money changes hands and unscrupulous individuals on THIS side of the border certainly have it all their own way!

“...nightly...” and daily too. Obviously we haven’t spent enough on the drug war, or hired enough cops, or created enough agencies to do proper combat. In this day of infrared technology, it’s amazing ultralights can’t be seen swarming in from Mexico. We need Sky Net, killer drones controlled by pimple faced kids, scouring the border for low flying Mexicans.

the Mexican government essentially is the drug cartel. When you see the Mexican government taking down drug dealers, you’ll notice that it’s always from the same cartels (competitors), and not their sponsored ones.

the only reason drugs get into this country in such mass quantities is because some big shots are making big money...govt people taking kickbacks...

with all our drones and the nsa etc..there is no way in heaven these planes are just "missed"...

Prohibition fosters innovation and creates massive amounts of wealth for the wrong people.

Just look at the Kennedy clan.

Those ‘sensors’ are only to detect the ‘drug traffic’ so the FEDS can be assured they get their ‘due cut’ off the traffickers.
