A New Jersey grand jury indicted 42 alleged drug dealers Friday in connection with a series of arrests last November that prosecutors are calling the largest drug bust in Camden in more than a decade.

Prosecutors said the 56-page indictment, which stemmed from a takedown dubbed “Operation North Pole,” takes aim at a violent narcotics network with ties to Mexican cartels whose participants dealt millions of dollars in cocaine and heroin each year.

Wouldn’t’a thought Camden could go any lower.

They can always work at the tallow plant when they get out.

What’s the big deal? Isn’t everyone in Camden a drug dealer?

All at taxpayers’ expense.

Welfare pays for the drugs and housing, then we have to pay to process thugs through the justice system, etc. etc.

Thanks Obama!

They vote Democrat, so it's a scalable system.

A scalable system, with no apparent “economies of scale”.

A pin prick.

The Mexican drug cartels control vast swaths of the United States, and pretty much own several American cities.

Ryan Adams has these great lines in his song “English Girls Approximately”:

She has eyes as pretty a pair of jewels,
falling down in Camden like a couple drunken criminals.

10 months to get indictments???

I guess the wheels of justice turn very slowly in that part of the country.

Where is Judge Roy Bean when we need him???

Barry is going to catch hell from La Raza and Mexico’s el Presidente over this. Definitely a case of “racial profiling”.

It might be “white Hispanics”. If so, it can’t be racism.

ONLY $218K in cash from what they call a “drug dynasty”??? (Bet the cops made more than that in salaries!)

No bragging about the weight of the drugs seized??? Only 6 guns, yet a very violent gang?

I think the taxpayers have been hustled.

These are all lies. These unfortunate immigrants are here to work and do the jobs that citizens will not do. They are “our children” according to dimwit DIM biden. They are “our best and brightest” according to serial loser Clown Prince nobama.

“...Mexican drug cartels control vast swaths of the US...”

Declare them foreign terrorist organizations, and ship them to Gitmo, to be tried by Military tribunals.
