They left out the part where one drug dealer takes a switchblade, uses it to cut open a shrinkwrapped bag of white powder, takes a bit on his fingertip and tastes it, then turns to the other drug dealers, grins, and nods.

Since all the drugs are coming up from the Sierra Madre, I would think one of the steps in the process requires a Mexican outlaw to say, "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges."

drugs dont have to cross the border, our best smoke is grown here, and we have university labs cranking out all the x mescaline dmt etc we can handle.
and yes Virginia even at your local state U, the lab is being utilized for unlawful concoctions.

Er, why is the U.S.-Mexican border north of the Nueces River?

You guys forgot the step in Washington where inept politicians pass laws to make the drugs illegal, making the whole thing wildly profitable for the criminals.

Jesus Christ!! It is 1999!!! Can we stop assuming that the author of the post is a man or that the sexy drug dealer is male?!?!

the innominate one|7.16.09 @ 11:50PM|

jtuf - the "wheelbarrow", I believe

joshua - it is 2009, not 1999

Tim Cavanaugh, good idea, but you realize that they're not "tasting" the coke, they're seeing how quickly they're numbed by it as a measure of purity
