After detecting a 1.6-hectare plantation on a hill near the community of Pericos, Badiraguato, the Mexican Army destroyed nearly 100,000 plants. The field was 2 kilometers from the border with Chihuahua and no arrests were reported.

DeleteOpium and marijuana have been the major agricultural products of this region for 200 years. I would be surprised if they didn't find a plantation.
ReplyDelete200 years? Are you sure? I mean Mexico as a country was founded 201 yesrs ago
Delete200 years? You sure about that Detroit...
DeleteOpium and marijuana were both grown in Mexico before it was liberated from Spain. When Mexico joined the Hague Opium Convention in 1912, opium had been popular in Sinaloa for more than 100 years. Even when you travel to Sinaloa today, you will find opium poppies growing in front of people's homes that don't even know is opium. Opium poppies grow wild in the golden triangle from being planted 200 years ago.
DeleteAbout 200 years ago Mexicans called marijuana "yerba loca" because it wasn't accepted like alcohol by society.
The U.S and Mexico had a hemp industry dating back to the 1600's. This was the hemp used for making rope. Even George Washington grew hemp.
200 hundred years ago isn't that long ago. My grandparents were born in the 1800's. Opium wasn't outlawed until 1909 in the U.S. Before then you could buy it in almost any pharmacy without a prescription.
DeleteThere was an opium epidemic in Europe and to some degree the U.S. in the late 1800's. Even Edgar Allen Poe smoked opium. This led to opium being banned in Europe and the U.S., hence the Hague convention.
This drug epidemic is nothing new. I am sure that there are a lot of older people in the golden triangle that can tell you a lot.
The world is changing at a rapid pace. There were no cars when my grandparents were young. They lived to see the advent of the airplane and lived long enough to see jet travel and a man walk on the moon. When my father was young, he had ice blocks delivered to the house on a horse drawn wagon for his refrigerator. Many people in the U.S. didn't have electricity until the 50's or 60's. When I was young they delivered milk to our door in glass bottles. The milk man left it in front of your door and no one bothered it. Coca cola came in glass bottles. One of my uncles lost an eye in the 30's when he was running with a coke bottle and fell when he was a kid. One of my dad's uncles died about 1970. He still had a hand pump in his kitchen for water, no electricity and an outhouse. He had a stool half way to the outhouse and had to sit on it to rest as he got older because he couldn't make it all of the way to the outhouse without running out of wind.
My life was black and white until about 1962 when we got our first colored TV. Back in the 60's and 70's they always talked about cell phones but they actually didn't come about until the 80's.
200 years isn't a very long time. In a few decades you will be telling your great grandchildren about what life was like back in 2022.
Detroit is correct… it is widely believed that Chinese immigrants that built the railroads in Sinaloa in the 1800’s brought opium with them (& growing technics) from China…
Delete-Holden D. Cash
12:01 Not just brought, but grow it and trade it to the US. San Francisco was the main destination. Ended up after 1900's.
DeleteWhat was the excuse for dropping babies on their head?
DeleteI hope your parents told you.
@Detroit, marijuana growth was popular over 200 years ago in the part of Mexico now know as California. Back then it was part of Mexico
Delete4:00 Valid point.
DeleteA lot of good points here. The U.S. stole 1/2 of Mexico so naturally these areas were all part of Mexico.
DeleteI gotta say it.....
ReplyDeleteChapo snitched!
What a surprise 😲
ReplyDeleteDrugs in chapo birth place?!
What a beautiful field of flowers they destroyed. I’m sure the owner of that field will begin making fent by the start of next week
ReplyDeleteWow Mexican army, congratulations on wasting your time and resources that should save innocent peoples lives on finding a “plantation!” I’m sure that that is more important than focusing on the murderers, rapists, kidnappers, extortionists and fentanyl producers.
ReplyDeleteIf they do nothing is wrong, if they do it, is wrong... crazy conclusions.
DeleteThat’s what your country does
