    Drug smuggling gangs in Mexico have sent well-armed assassins, or "sicarios," into Arizona to locate and kill bandits who are ambushing and stealing loads of cocaine, marijuana and heroin headed to buyers in the United States, the Department of Homeland Security has warned Arizona law enforcement authorities.

    keep in mind the ridiculously low opinion billwald has of our country, and especially our military.

    He looks for reasons to slander and ridicule them. And by "reasons," I don't include "truthful" in the necessary requirements

    Yes, our opium production.

    The taliban had opium production mostly eliminated. I am convinced one of the reasons for the invasion was to get the poppies back into production which is now at its highest, ever. Just Happenstance?

    Happenstance? Yes.

    Why?

    Do you have something to confess about your activities as a police officer?

    Is personal experience coloring your view of the military?

    Not everyone is like you.

    Right from the start of the war it was apparent to me that the war was about opium and the natural gas pipe line.

    Remember Iran Contra? Anyone who thinks the current political system is not making money from the dope wars . . . I have a bridge for sale that connects Brooklyn with Manhattan. Consider drunk driving. How come the western European nations could virtually eliminate it and the US can't? Could it be that our politicians are owned by the entertainment industry?

    Personally? My statute of limitations ran 5 years ago. What do you want to know? In the bad old days when the Seattle Police Department ran the city it was safe to walk downtown at midnight. Now the department is squeaky clean and it isn't safe at noon.

    I never got any cash money from the system but lots of free and half price food. A little bit of booze. I worked with some people I don't think I ever saw sober. The insider joke was that some of the old beat cops quit drinking when they retired and had to start paying. It was a fun job! Don't recommend it these days. The US Constitution was not designed to control a big American city in this century.

    I find that union members, if they're really into unions, are also conspiracy theorists. It's because they think everyone else operates like they do.

    Working people cooperating for their mutual best interest is conspiracy but politicians and big business doing the same thing isn't?

    Maybe this is connected to the SBC claiming it isn't a denomination but an association. Old saying, something to the effect that "The Rockefellers only talk to the Cabots and the Cabots only talk to God." You TeaPotters are so superior to the rest of the human race that you don't need help from anyone but God?

    Back to the OP:

    This is not really news. It has been going on for a while, just has not been publicized until now.
