Bond hearing for HPD officer linked to drug cartel
quote:
Federal agents say for years members of the Zetas drug cartel paid a veteran Houston police officer to supply them with guns, bulletproof vests, cars and police intelligence.

So to those that argue to make all this shite legal, would it end the cartels?

It would hurt them. They're in the money making business. Guns, drugs, pussy, extortion, human trafficking, etc.. They'd find a way to get theirs.

If you're a police officer, or federal agent of any kind 'fighting' the war on drugs in a honest way -- you're a sucker. You're being played by people above you. You're nothing but a grunt on the ground to 'keep up appearances' and make things look and seem 'legitimate'.

At this point it's like expecting a long time steroid user to be totally normal after quitting.
The monster has been made.

For a brief time in college I bought weed from a kid whose dad was a cop and funneled it to him. It made me uncomfortable so I found another dealer.

It would be a major step toward reducing their power. It would reduce the prison population in America. And people would have legitimate access to the positive effects of certain psychoactive substances (e.g., Psilocybin - Treating alcoholism with mushrooms - for much better information than what you'll get from KOAT, I recommend MAPS). It would also open up more opportunities for small businesses.
I'm not advocating extremely addictive substances that often have a negative effect on people's lives (e.g., methamphetamine, crack cocaine, heroin), but there are a myriad of other substances that are not addictive, and regularly have positive effects, that are currently illegal.

That's a Cointreau to Crack comparison. It doesn't work.

That was a long article, but thanks for the link I read it all and it was quite interesting. Of course, the overwhelming majority of non-prescription drugs on the streets are coming in from Mexico and the cartels, but I was surprised that the gang in Houma was buying and flipping that significant of a quantity basically directly from the source (of course through couriers and bagmen) I would expect that to be the case in a major city ie Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, but interesting it was that intense in freaking Houma, La.
Also, this from the article had me
