Mexican Drug Cartels Operating in Oklahoma

State drug agents are keeping a close watch on the deadly Mexican drug war, and there's growing concern that some of those cartels are making inroads into Oklahoma.

It's marijuanna, who cares?
Go after the dangerous drugs like meth and quit squandering resources on something that just makes you sleepy.

[Bonnie H Oakley]

Legalize it.

It's not just marajuanna. They are one of the leading distributors of Coke in the Tulsa area. If you have ever been to one of the hole in the wall mexican bars in the area you would know.

Yep, I agree Bonnie.

If this was going on in the 90s why are we just now hearing about it in the news?

[closetprotester]

I say they should just legalize all drugs...

Just for like 3 months.....

as an experiment.

De-criminalize marijuana and watch the crime rate fall. Then focus on things that really matter.
Why fill up prisons with people who have a joint when murderers should be locked up instead?

Legalizing an illegal drug will not make things better, it will be an excuse for more traffic accidents and crime will really escalate. Than what happens in a few months or years when another illegal drug appears?

[Coasters]

Umm... I do believe that more traffic accidents are caused by alcohol. Which happens to be legal....

For me, it's not about the marijuana. It's the drug cartel in general and all the crime it brings. Gang violence is rampant everywhere in this state. I guarantee you that for every bundle of mary jane, there's the same size bundle of cocaine. I'm all for legalizing the sweet little weed, I just don't want drug lords bringing it to me! I'll grow my own, thank you!(When it's legal, that is!!)

Oh Panda! That's funny! An excuse for traffic accidents?? Crime will escalate from legalizing marijuana? Really? Pot smokers would rather stay home and chill out that to get into a car and cause accidents or rob a store. Those are the meth heads, coke heads and alcoholics, not the pot smokers.

Build the fence, Electrify it with about a Bizillion Volts and there won't be a drug issue. But then Obama and Holder would not have an excuse to go after all of the Guns would they?

I have to disagree. I've seen people smoking it while they were driving.

Oh but they'd find another excuse to go after the guns. Besides, that fence is being dug under by the drug smuggling moles.
