TIL: I need to order bananas in bulk.
this is not the first time this has been tried. know of a federal case some 15 years ago or so.
Just legalize the shit and regulate it accordingly
It's amazing that people still think this has ANY effect on global drug trafficking. It does not.
The war on drugs was lost decades ago. It wasn't even close.
Now, these drug raids are just excuses to steal tax dollars so asshole cops can pretend they're doing somehting to help society. They are not. Drug flows have never slowed down. Not even a bit.
Just more copaganda.
600 lbs is like nothing to the cartels, they only put as much in a shipment as they're willing to lose, they caught this one while another 9 identical shipments reached their targets. Goid luck lmao.
Ok, but how many kg of bananas in that shipment?
