I was about to say, Russell Crowe wasn't in Training Day.

When I learned what law enforcement agencies do with seized drug/gun money, that's when I knew the war on drugs was bullshyt.

That's a lot of bread though.:whew:

What happens? Enlighten us.

I remember when I was growing up as a kid, a trillion dollars didn't exist. That amount of money literally didn't exist yet. Over time money gets inflated and becomes more or something like that, I don't know, I'm not an economist. But the Austin Powers joke explains it a little:

The agency that pulled off the bust, along with the parent government that ok'd the operation, get to keep the money and spend it on whatever they please, with a portion of the proceeds going to the bank.

So if an agency pulls off a $2 million dollar bust, guess who gets new guns, patrol cars, and yearly evaluation raises?

The drugs are re-used in sting operations, they pump the drugs back into the community, let the dealers make their little money, then come in, take the money and the drugs, re-use the drugs and spend the money, while being comped by taxpayer dollars as a basis.

Which is why the war will never end without significant change in leadership. You will damn near need a coup in these agencies

was probably $250 million before they called the news cameras ......
We all know that shyt started around 250 million or so..207 just seems like a drug dealers number :sas2:

Exactly.

I know for a fact some police officers skim some money off the top when they bust drug dealers.

On top of that, this is Mexico.
