2 cases from a known drug location. Where’s the search warrant for the known drug house?
ReplyDeleteThey are building a case. They said "known location" but it's probably just a suspicion in the eyes of law enforcement so they'd need more evidence before a judge would sign a warrant
DeleteWhere do you think all this Fentanyl is coming from???
ReplyDeleteMost illicit fentanyl entering the United States is produced in Mexico by transnational criminal organizations, primarily the Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation Cartels, using precursor chemicals largely sourced from China and, increasingly, India. Maybe some political groups need to get their heads out and figure this is why we are trying to close the border. Why we have let in 10-12 million illegal aliens in the last 4-years alone including: Cartel Members, Murderers, Criminals, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers into our country. But several of you out there want us just to turn a blind eye and let them break the laws of America. Here is a simple question, probably too difficult for a lot of you, do you lock your house or apartment or trailer at night, do you lock your cars too, why to protect you, your family, and possessions, well that same reason we want to close the border, to protect America, Pretty Damn Simple Logic - the WONC, "The Woke No Commentor", will argue the point, but it is the same - Truth and Facts!
