We came across some intelligence some time ago that the drug cartels as a result of covid-19 were going to try to take advantage of the situation and try to infiltrate additional drugs into our country.” “We are at war with terrorists and we are at war with the drug cartels as well,” Milley continued. “This is the United States Military. You will not penetrate this country. You will not get past jump street. You’re not going to come in here and kill additional Americans. And we will marshal whatever assets are required to prevent your entry into this country to kill Americans.” “So right now, the Navy has marshaled additional ships … and they have set sail already and are in the Caribbean right now,” Milley concluded. “In addition to that, there [are] ten Coast Guard cutters and there’s special operation forces and security force assistance brigades along with Air Force reconnaissance aircraft. The bottom line is, you are not going to get through. Now is not the time to try to penetrate the United States will illegal drugs to kill Americans. With the United States Military, we will defend our country regardless of the cost.”
Because the US needs more Heroin users, Crackheads, & meth addictics, etc. behind the wheel of a car. Flying your plane or engineering a train. Order more Body Bags, EMT & roadside "Cleanup" crews (Brain scoopers) because that will kill more people than Wuhan Flu could dream about.
use does not increase with legality. people that use drugs deserve that right. and people that abuse drugs need help, not to be literally placed in a cage.
If people want to do meth, heroin, crack or whatever they are going to do it whether it's legal or not. Why lock them up. It's not like the typical user is Pablo Escobar or El Chapo.
