Drug Cartels Turn To Human Trafficking
Friends of Ours ^ | 07/07/13 | Friends of Ours

Central American migrants who are lured by the U.S. open border policy are getting exploited by Mexican cartels which are expanding their rackets from the drug trade to human trafficking as reported by Isabella Cota for The Guardian:

"'Why? Because a dose of drugs can be bought and consumed only once, but the same human being can be exploited in many forms over and over again throughout a lifetime,' says Marcela Chacón, Costa Rica's deputy minister of interior and police."

Inexplicably, the so-called immigration reform bill proposed by U.S. lawmakers contains no provisions by which intelligence data could be obtained from illegal aliens on these trafficking groups. The pending bill should be called the Nightmare Act since it protects organized crime groups and dirty public officials.

Someday...Someday...we may learn how much Cartel money has been used in this Amnesty farce.

The corruption of Scareface days in Miami are just a snapshot of what is happening in a more hidden way with our national “leaders”.

Anyone that thinks just a local sheriff or border agent may be bought off is worse than an idiot.

Not so sure cash is hard to trace but we do know the good old boy club in D.C. has more toys than money and the IRS is to busy tracking down john doe to make sure he has insurance.

Can’t be. I’ve been told that these criminals would be out of business if drugs were legalized. That they wouldn’t find some new drug or contraband to make money off of.
