this is why people do these drug deals. its less work to make more money. downside is its illegal and the punishments for those crimes aren't worth it.

i can understand why someone would turn to that kind of money making scheme. when your family is suffering because lack of money, your moralities are tested and you may tweek them just in order to get by

i agree. Its so sad that people feel the need to go this far. Or that they need to to support a family.
I meant obivously there are different ways to LEGALLY make money but its so much faster and easier i guess

sucks for the loser who got caught, lost his load, and got his toes chopped off. But shows how inefficient are border patrol is when they sneak by them like this

but then again, most people would whine its illegal to search somebody for this.

Ha ha!!! I just watched an episode of "La Rosa de Guadalupe" for homework in AP Spanish class and the main plotline was about that. But seriously, I have to agree though. Sad... but true.
