Border Guards Have Mexican Standoff With… Mexicans… and the kicker is, they’re wearing Mexican military uniforms. Nifty, eh?
Men in Mexican military-style uniforms crossed the Rio Grande into the United States on a marijuana-smuggling foray, leading to an armed confrontation with Texas law officers, authorities said Tuesday. No shots were fired.
The Mexican Foreign Relations Department issued a statement saying that drug traffickers and other organized criminals have used uniforms and vehicles before. “It is possible that these actions were designed to damage the image of our armed forces,” it said.
Monday’s incident follows a story in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin in Ontario, Calif., on January 15 that said the Mexican military had crossed into the United States more than 200 times since 1996. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff has said reports of Mexican incursions into the United States were overblown and most were just mistakes.
They dropped over half a ton… half… a… ton… of marijuana when they turned tail and ran. Any potheads wanna estimate the net worth of that bundle?
Approximately…4.8 conservatively, it it’s good
Math anyone?Figuring $300 a pound (Texas, right over the border price) a half ton would only be $250-300k, and probably cost those guys about $100 out of pocket expenses.
Fuzzy MathI was figuring street price and it not be crap.
what$300/lb? If that were the case, they’d have a fucking taco stand on the other side of the border serving up bricks, with lines of potheads stretching to Dallas waiting for their turn. …and a churro.
Eurotrash3.6 million USD roughly.
good?\”4.8 conservatively, it it’s good\”Where I come from, Mexican pot is mostly crap. Of course, where I come from is right next door to Humboldt.Is it any better closer to the border?
SometimesI don’t see it often here either, but I have seen it go both ways.
Poor qualityI come up with $2.56M street value.Its mexican after all
You guysNeed to stop counting it by the quarter, this shit aint high school. Mexican brick is cheap because it doesnt cost anything to grow, and is brought over daily in loads just as big if not bigger than this. 2.56 mil? Maybe if the nugs are made of fucking gold.
MMMMMMMMMMNugs of Gold…… Maybe Nugs of Purple…
Mexican weed sucksSeriously it’s dawg shit down here in Tejas. An oz goes fer $40-50 depending on ur connections, but it’s like all hydralic pressed together and tougher than bricks. So say about $720K…not in the millions, but enough to buy u a couple of beers at the bar.
