meth production in Mexico

Posted on 02/03/2007 11:35:20 AM PST by jyro

Did you even wonder how the Mexican super labs make meth. Since the USA has restricted sales of ephedra by placing cold tablets behind the counter and making people sign for them, Drug labs in the USA have died out from what they once were. The current problem is that in Mexico "drug companies" are selling ephedra in pure brick form to mexican drug lords so the need for refining the cold tablets for ephedra has past and the end product is much purer.

It amazes me just how many people don't take the meth problem seriously.

It is so sad too. I have arrested A LOT of Meth addicts and it is always the same, you look at their DL photo and they don't even resemble their past self. Women who could have been models just two years before look 40 years older, missing teeth, hair falling out and covered in abscesses. You look at the ingredients and all you can think is who in their right mind would even want to be in the same room with all those chemicals let alone inject them into their bodies.

There were some idiots here that tried to steal
some anhydrous ammonia out of a neighbors tank about
4 yrs ago that liked to have killed themselves getting
it out.

Dangerous stuff if you don`t know what your doing and
or high as a kite.

You have to tell the sheriff now when you leave a tank
in the field.

Mexican drug lords don`t have as much competion from
Americans now,they are probably laughing

Did you know that the federal Gov. pays millions for drug use and manufacturing information from just about every country. They know who makes it,sells it,and now wanna know who actually use it! Yet, leaving the big boys to distribute the devils dust. The country with the most,in the end wins. Gov. is compiling data on every resource,in every place,all over the world. Drug dealers get caught,gov. gets another inch of the planet. Why buy when they can take. Task force operations in u.s. are taking private artifact collections to fill their new museum. Finding mass amounts of fuels,leaving un-tapped,yet still not bringing prices down. They are the real makers,dealers,and sellers.In the end, who ever profits from anything made? The gov. And they say meth users are out of control? Funny,alot of drunks say the same thing.In my opinion!
