When federal officials talk about a flood of heroin entering the country, they are not exaggerating.
In recent years the amount of heroin produced in Mexico has more than doubled from less than 60 tons to more than 140 tons last year. Its cheap. Its plentiful. And all of it is destined for buyers in the United States. [snip]New Mexico, as a border state, is a transit state for all drugs coming north from Mexico, whether the drugs are smuggled into California, Arizona or through the ports of entry in southern New Mexico or El Paso.

The drugs from Mexico are causing the gun violence in our cities. Der Hildebeast wants more gun control. I say, drug control!!! Elect Trump and build the wall!
Give it away free in clinics and all drug crime disappears. Take the profit out of drugs
Islamic heroin was not mentioned in this article when production in the Middle East region is not just about making money, it’s about destroying western culture or at least changing it for the worst.
end welfare first and then we can talk about legalizing drugs.
They could just tax it out of existence. Wait, if dope heads don’t exist, neither do the dems.. I think they would like your idea of giving it away... They could even run the clinic in a public school where they could just saunter over and vote. Probably the number one reason they keep it going. On the other hand, it’s simply human nature to seek the forbidden fruit,if it were legal, would it be as tempting?
You’re absolutely clueless You favor enslaving people to drug addiction by making it free? Do you have any idea the consequences of that?
Secure the damn border.
Giving heroin away free is a bad idea.
The community that O organized is/was controlled by a black Muslim street Gang founded by a Mexican drug cartel. They have expanded their operation during his reign to distribution into Michigan Indiana and beyond.
They also traffic in male/female prostitution and murder for hire (domestic terrorism funded by Kadaffi thru FerretCON was stopped)
Jesse Robinson Jacksons half Bro , Noah is doing life for his involvement. That’s Robinson as in MO maiden name. She spent so much time in JJs home the siblings called her Sis. All including the Os were close until Noah’s internment started
Now do you understand why the southern border is open?
The enemy is within our gates and it is those who are allowing and supporting the destruction of our youth. We know who they are and for 8 years or more they know what they are doing and so do thier supporters and controllers outside of this country
Been going to New Mexico for many years and over that time have developed allot of friends. What they tell us about the damage drugs and alcohol have done to the small town life in that state is very sad. Several of my friends are Elders on the Apache Reservation outside Ruidoso and they’ve given up on keeping Heroin off the Res. It’s destroying their youth!
Hell, look what gov’t did in Colorado, etc., they legalized pot, it still costs $80 for a quarter [ounce], same as the old street price. Now, the profit goes to the government instead of the dealer. Although hobby dealers in non-legalized states I would imagine would prefer to control their clientele to known persons only, to reduce their risk.
I have been told by someone connected to the prison population that Obama was associated with the Black Gangsters Disciples. He was buying drugs from them and may have been helping them legally when they got into trouble with the law. Is this the street gang you are referring to?
El Rukn?
There are some drugs that you don’t want to legalize. You want to eradicate them. They do irreparable harm to the circulatory system. They don’t live long as we are finding out as the music producers are showing us.
Islamic heroin was not mentioned
I recently read an article that the current heroin epidemic started with Islamic heroin. Most likely brought over here by Americans returning from the area. Not your every day soldiers, the higher ups. Mexico stepped up and started producing more heroin because the softening of the marijuana laws and states like Colorado were cutting into their profits.
I could not help but notice the emphasis in the story was not on interdiction at the border but on “funding to combat heroin and opiate-based prescription pain killer abuse” and stopping the smugglers 100 miles north of the border.
Close the border down, with troops if necessary, and the problem will lessen. Not cease but it will lessen.
One caveat though, if troops are brought in for border control, be prepared for not only casualties but stories in the press and from the open borders politicians about the poor poor Mexican kiddies, refugees, workers and other poor souls wounded and killed by the mean old American troops.
Free as in me the taxpayer pays for it? It's bad enough the government pillages my pay every two weeks and funds things I am strictly against. Now you want me (and us) to pay for dope too?
The War on Drugs isn’t cheap in lives, treasure, and the corruption it grows at every level of government. The taxpayer pays for it.
That, too.
