A lot of blue states have legalized recreational use of marijuana. Cannabis dispensaries have popped up all over the place. Now we’re finding hundreds of illegals working at the farms that produce this stuff. Did the cartels provide the labor? I just get a weird feeling about this that there are more layers to this story.
I’ve noticed that too.
It’s a really good observation.
Foreign cartels and homegrown gangs have been using the forests and parks to hide and run their grow operations since the at least the 1980s. A buddy of mine came across one while out hunting in the very early 1990s. This was back when authorities would actually do something about it. He reported it. The state and feds (National Forest land) went in and cleaned it out. This was in southern Idaho.
America is currently working on the world’s LARGEST SLAVE AND CHILD LABOR WORK FORCE. WE SHOULD BE “PROUD”! LET’S HAVE A PARADE FULL OF MEXICAN FLAGS.
