Yep.

But they never disclose what they do with all the stuff.

Seems that some people think "everybody's outa step but me".

I dunno, thats a lot of powder. I cant believe that the cartels are so ready to sacrifice another 800 kilos after all the losses theyve already suffered this year. The U.S., Panamanian and even the usually lazy Costa Rican authorities have picked off a bunch of big shipments. One of which rapidly went missing again (350kilos) supposedly under the watchful eye of policein a secure bodega. And yes, Sloop it does make one wonder at times. Where does it all go? What happens to it all? Up in smoke or out the back door and back into the loop after taxes have been paid.......

common....what do you think happens to it? it's trafficked just like all the rest of it. this time, by mr. big....government. we need to bare in mind that governments--all--have diplomatic immunity. their planes, personnel and property is untouchable. no examinations, no dogs, no busts, nada! they used to have disinformation videos of burning the stuff...now they don't waste their time anymore...every body, worldwide knew/knows its a hoot. all that blow goes to the govt's warehouses and is ultimately in one fashion or another redistributed to a nosey public...world wide. can't thwart commerce, especially when the world economy is in the tank and commerce needs every last penny it can scare up. it is, however, a bit unfortunate that the spoils aren't spread a little wider.....as it is, we all know that this filthy lucre is only split by a small number of corrupt public officials. 'their piece of the action'. and life goes on.
