Largest Meth Bust on East Coast, in Georgia. Illegals?

@ 01:13 PM (6 months, 12 days ago)
I see this all the time in our era of PC reporting. ""Oh, don't use the word 'illegal.' Don't even mention it because it fans the flames of anti-immigrant hysteria and hate." Sometimes I hear reporters and other candy-asses use the phrase "foreign nationals." How pathetic. How spineless.

See, I don't care if they're Mexicans, Canadians, Russians or any damned body else. If they're here legally then I would suggest throwing their asses out of this country after they serve their sentences. I'd prefer they serve their sentences in their native countries so we wouldn't have to pay for it. Sadly, how many coutries could we trust to do so? If they're here illegally then I want to hear it and I want to know their histories of arrest, etc.. And if they have arrest records and weren't reported to ICE, or ICE didn't toss them, then I want somebody's ass to chew on.

INNOCENT until proven guilty.

The federal Drug Enforcement Administration will hold a press conference Wednesday morning to discuss what’s being called the largest methamphetamine bust in the Eastern U.S.

Federal agents carried out two raids within hours of each other at homes near Duluth late Sunday and early Monday, the Gwinnett Daily Post reported.



Agents seized some 350 pounds of Mexican crystal methamphetamine and arrested four men on charges of drug trafficking. On the street, the seized meth could be worth about $7.7 million, a Gwinnett County police investigator told the Post.


Charged with felony trafficking are Jose Rafael Lopez-Jimenez, 34; Gerardo Antonio Urena-Esquivel, 35; Luis Naranjo-Leon, 23; and Hugo Flores Rios, 29. All are Mexican natives.

The suspects are being held without bond at the Gwinnett County Jail.



Here's a related article that I missed from April 30th. Mexican drug cartel busted in Atlanta.


The blue house, or “la azul” as the drug-runners called it, is a nondescript ranch with a well-kept yard, like so many others lining Cruse Road in Lawrenceville.

Federal authorities say that’s exactly why the Gulf Cartel chose it. The house was one of 11 low-key bases of operation that the powerful Mexican drug trafficking organization used in its enterprise, police said.

About 200 federal, state and local law enforcement officers simultaneously raided the locations in Gwinnett and North Fulton counties before dawn Wednesday and made 17 arrests. At least three of the locations were single-family houses in residential neighborhoods.  I used to live off of Cruse Rd. Back in about 1985.


Follow-up. Somebody told the truth. 

Agents seized about 351 pounds of meth from two houses in Duluth, in suburban Atlanta, in an operation that began Sunday and extended into Monday morning. They arrested four Mexican nationals, three of whom are in the U.S. illegally.

"This is very typical of what we see regarding Mexican drug trafficking organizations and how they operate," said Rodney Benson, who heads the Drug Enforcement Administration's Atlanta field office. "They want to blend in to communities in nondescript locations to conduct their business."

  4. We will have no peace until the drug problems in Mexico have a reliable solution. I have the feeling we will keep hearing this kind of news, things won't stop here, not as long the drug lords in Mexico make the rules.
