Cocaine, like all other illegal drugs, are a scourge on society.
It would be a little bit difficult to find someone who could honestly say that the use of illegal drugs actually made their life better.
I mean, all you really have to do is go down some streets in liberal cities to see how good drugs have made lives for people.
The sad part of it is that if the Biden Administration really wanted to do it, they could curb the flow of illegal drugs into the United States as easily as flipping on a light switch.
Like most of you already know, these drugs don’t exactly get made in the United States. Cocaine as an example is one of the things that gets exported from one country to the other on a daily basis.
Every country has their own drug problems that they have to deal with, it just seems that the United States has less of a handle on theirs.
It doesn’t help that the drug cartels and drug makers are getting more and more inventive and brazen with the way they are trying to transport drugs.
The modern advances in technology along with the finely toned noses of drug sniffing dogs have forced these criminals to get creative.
For example, authorities in Paraguay announced recently that they have made the largest cocaine seizure in the history of their nation.
An astounding four tons of cocaine were stashed inside a shipment of sugar that was bound for Belgium.
The appropriately titled Operation Sweetness seized the four tons of cocaine which was valued at around a quarter of a billion dollars.
This is a seizure that will be causing a significant disruption in the worldwide cocaine trade.
“I think it sends a signal to organized gangs not to use Paraguay as transit; they’re going to find authorities that are determined and working in a coordinated way,” President Santiago Peña said, promising further efforts to boost port security.
The fact of the matter is that countries that we look at a lesser to the United States for whatever reason are somehow doing more to prevent the flow of illegal drugs than the United States. It’s embarrassing for us as a nation.
