Here\u2019s what was found <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20190724082656\/https:\/\/www.vindy.com\/news\/2017\/jul\/14\/1m-pot-found-mexican-made-fords-transported-throug\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>from Vindy.com<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The head of the Youngstown Federal Drug Enforcement Administration says a recent marijuana-smuggling operation with ties to Warren is the first of its kind he has seen in this area. In fact, said Bob Balzano, who runs the local DEA office, the only time he has heard of the method being deployed was in April, when a similar discovery was made in Minnesota. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>They found marijuana being smuggled in? My first question, among many is, why? Why would smugglers bother when a number of states have said \u201cGo ahead! Have a doobee! It\u2019s legal here! Pot is slowly losing it\u2019s profit margin for smugglers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The marijuana was found last week inside the wheel well for a spare tire in a new Ford Fusion which was manufactured in Sonora, Mexico, at a Ford dealership in Kent, after one of the vehicles was unloaded from a car carrier, Balzano said. Investigators were then able to find 14 more packages of marijuana in other Fusions, which all came through a rail yard in Warren. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>I wonder what gave it away? Probably the 8 empty bags of Cheetoes in the back seat.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/3804_picture_of_a_beatnik_or_hippie_with_bongo_drums.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5026\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/3804_picture_of_a_beatnik_or_hippie_with_bongo_drums.jpg?resize=96%2C150\" alt=\"\" width=\"96\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>All together, about 14.5 per kilos per car, or 400 pounds of marijuana, was found. It has a street value between $400,000 to $1 million. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Really? That much? That actually surprises me, but then I don\u2019t partake of the \u201cWicked Weed.\u201d (Personal reasons. I just don\u2019t like what drugs and booze do to my head)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>The Portage County Sheriff\u2019s Office is also investigating, along with the DEA. <\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>&#8220;We&#8217;re aware of the situation and are taking it very seriously,&#8221; said Kelli Felker, Ford&#8217;s communication manager for manufacturing &amp; labor. &#8220;We are working with the FBI and Customs on an extensive investigation. We have confirmed that this is not happening at our plant or at our internal shipping yards.&#8221; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Translation: \u201cWe&#8217;re worried that the Feds and local police might want to seize all of Ford&#8217;s assets!&#8221; In any case, the very fact that these cars were used to smuggle anything continues to prove President Trump\u2019s point on making things in the United States. It may be cheaper to manufacture things in Mexico, but what will it cost if every single new car being transported across the border is stopped for inspection? Especially if that inspection involves a power wrench? You aren\u2019t saving money if the cars are disassembled by the Border patrol and the DEA. Best just make them in America.<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>[yasr_visitor_votes size=&#8221;large&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
