I’m not saying don’t keep trying to stop it, I’m saying I don’t believe the wall would do much in that effort because most of the fentanyl coming into the US isn’t coming through ways that a wall would stop.

A wall would do a lot to stop it. Border agents are too overwhelmed to be able to search all vehicles coming across the border.

Most of the fentanyl that makes its way into the US from Mexico is transported via both commercial and private vehicles through frontier checkpoints in California and Arizona, according to CBP statistics. Authorities have found the drugs stashed in the cargo of commercial trucks and tucked into the door panels of private vehicles. They have also found fentanyl strapped to or inside the bodies of pedestrians, crossing the border.

Despite that seizure at one of the busiest migrant border crossings, Almonte and others believe that fentanyl trafficking in the region will remain largely undetected because border agents are increasingly overwhelmed with a surge of migrants, and because Mexican law enforcement is doing little to crack down on both the flow of both migrants and drugs.

Cartels exploiting border chaos to smuggle fentanyl into US

They really are too ignorant to understand that the cartels are way smarter then they are.

Never in a million years would Libs think that the cartels would actually play dirty and deliberately smuggle hundreds of thousands of people across our border each month simply to overwhelm and distract our border agents from being able to slow and stop their drug trafficking. Because after all, in the Barney the dinosaur world Utopia that inhabits their brains, evil doesn’t exist. Bad people are an anomaly made that way because they were mistreated during their childhoods and therefore we shouldn’t stop, discourage or even judge their behavior because all behaviors are of equal value you know and should be accommodated.

That is so well said…especially this part.

“ Never in a million years would Libs think that the cartels would actually play dirty and deliberately smuggle hundreds of thousands of people across our border each month simply to overwhelm and distract our border agents from being able to slow and stop their drug trafficking”

Our border officials working with the previous administration put together a plan to deal with all of this. The plan never had a chance to work because Biden showed up and told the migrants to come on down and then canceled everything the people who actually know what they are talking about did…

This border disaster is on Biden and his people. And like all the messes Biden and his lib lunatics have made it’s going to be damned hard to unmake that mess.

So has my wife but thankfully the spinal cord stimulator that was implanted a few months ago is doing it’s job. She has all but stopped taking pain meds, the stimulator is blocking her lumbar and leg pain amazingly well.

Mr. Webb, a laid-back snowboarder and skateboarder who, with the imminent birth of his first child, had become despondent over his pandemic-dimmed finances, bought Percocet, a prescription opioid, through a dealer on Snapchat. It turned out to be spiked with a lethal amount of fentanyl.

If only we had universal healthcare and he could get his Percocet safely from a pharmacy for just a $20 copay and not have to resort to the shady black market.

Not without a prescription.

If he didn’t need it for pain, then its an addiction issue which is failure unrelated to the border.

You tell them not to complain? Ok then, damn cold.

Yeah no, we don’t tell kids in a burn ward to use bootstraps.

Well that’s progress.

Do those goal posts get heavy packing them from field to field like that?

What goal posts? Does every conversation you have have goal posts?

It’s going to get in no matter what. The better solution is to help addicts and try to dry up the demand.

Not just addicts dying from it.

Brainchild, one doesn’t get a script for Percoset because he was down in the dumps. Hell, one has to fight like crazy now to get it for chronic pain. You REALLY should read and understand what the post says before you spout out the next sanctimonious reply.

I misread it that he went black market because of his pandemic-dimmed finances. I didn’t read the article, just the quote. My apologies.

Love,

People should consider this when thinking a wall will do anything to stop the fentanyl coming into the country.

Not just addicts dying from it.

And if we finished the wall not just addicts would still be dying from it.

With that logic 60 Billion won’t stop communism at Kyiv either.

I would rather have a wall at our own border as effective or ineffective as it will be.

That also explains the urgency of the migrants as they see the wall getting done after Brandon is fired.
