[QUOTE="jayem, post: 73379130, member: 8344"] I suspect he meant DEA. But it's very much a Customs issue, too. This info from the article is instructive: [I]In September, for example, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents seized 52 pounds of powdered fentanyl at the Pine Valley checkpoint near San Diego — and that wasn't a record. In December, officers discovered nearly 80 pounds in a college student's car. This summer, authorities discovered 20,000 fentanyl pills in a hidden compartment of a Mini Cooper at the San Ysidro checkpoint — a week after confiscating 11,500 pills in another vehicle. [/I] Justifying the border wall as a way to mitigate drug smuggling is a canard. The vast majority of illegal drugs are smuggled in through legal ports of entry. The big cartels want to get quantity into the US--not the piddly amounts someone can carry in a backpack. [/QUOTE]
