Where do you think this money ($200,000) was headed to?

and people say that we shouldn't focus on outbound traffic, and that we aren't at fault that the Mexican Cartels are so powerful now.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officers stopped an illegal exportation of nearly $200,000 while working Outbound-Operations.

On March 28th at about 6 p.m., CBP Officers were working Outbound-Operations in the south-bound lane that directs traffic from the U.S. into Mexico. CBP Officers selected a vehicle being driven by a 20-year-old man from Grand Island, Nebraska. Further inspection revealed that the man was attempting to smuggle nearly $200,000 out of U.S. The CBP Officers found the illegal currency concealed in a false compartment in the side panel of the trunk area.

ugh! I can't believe that! And people on here still deny that we supply them with weapons and money. This is obvious that we have a problem with stuff going south.

Thanks for the link! it makes me soo mad.

Well he wasnt headed for Canada! Maybe he was just looking for a better life, that kind of cash in mehico could buy a lot of crack!

judgemental bastard

blame the meth addict who has a drug problem, not the cartel's who murder, spread their poison and commit heinous crimes. Now that is great thinking.

So let me get this straight, your people want all outbound traffic to be controlled tightly and the traffic from Mexico to the U.S. including people to be allowed to flow uncontrolled and unregulated. How educated.
Round hole, square peg.

Geez, these people south of the border will come up with any excuse to make drugs and sell them. What's in the water down there LOL. Kill people, make and smuggle drugs and then just blame it on the U.S., I have heard it all now.

The modern day liberal evolved from the '50s & '60s beatniks & hippies which started the high demand for illegal drugs. I know a lot of liberals that smoke weed on a regular basis, and they're the people who want open borders, and are thee most appalled at the cartel violence. Also much of the drug, and human trafficking can be directly attributed to MS-13, and other street gangs, who are also responsible for a lot of guns, and money going back across the border.
Not one penny of my money goes to the cartels, I quit doing drugs 20 years ago.

Which people are those tony? The ones related to the 25% of people crossing the border illegally that are involved in smuggling? The ones you think are just carrying "special" flour for those "special" tortias? Maybe his poor Mexican grandmother needed an operation!
Face facts! Drugs and criminals flow north and money flows south.

Wow that's brilliant police work...lol. A Nebraska plated vehicle crossing a rural POE on the border in Arizona....not something you see everyday in Douglas. He might as well have out on a neon sign that read "I am stupid and am up to something no good". You would think he would be smart enough to put a Sonoran Plate on his vehicle and the Douglas High School Mascot sticker that says go Bulldogs!

Augua Prieta (AP) has turned into shooting gallery. In towns like Douglas everyone has relatives across the line and almost everyone is part of the border war in some way.
