This guy is cool, but he is talking about this massive cartel problem, but then refuses to say anything bad about mass immigration, which is bringing in third world crime and destabilizing the country. He also talks about giving citations for loaded guns in the car, when the problems again are the poachers, many of whom are foreign.
This is one of the worst interviews you've ever had J. Weed is legal in Cali. This bloak sounds like a cop that never made it. He uses the "cartel" term so freely.
Over an hour and a half of copsplaining: @36:14 What an absolute tool. A JDAM is not a missile your ignorant government worshiping cringelord cop. š£ "Ambushed while raiding that grow site" š¤ You mean counter-ambushed do you not? This guy's using lots of cop math. "250 day strain" x "5gal/day" x the angle of the dangle = lies. Game wardens are garbage humans.
If you want to stop the illegal weed grows destroying nature, and the cartels doing the deeds, legalize weed across the board, not tax and regulate, legalize. If you want to stop fentanyl deaths, legalize opium, wanna stop dangerous meth labs, legalize speed. This isn't all that complicated
I absolutely love and respect game wardens for what they do. Unless Iām salmon fishing during salmon spawning season in the rivers in Michigan. If you know you know hahahahaha.
Iāve got mixed feelings about game wardens. I think the government making you pay to provide food for your family is wrong. We are taxed for EVERYTHING. They have turned hunting and fishing into another way for them to profit also.
I'm up in northern canada. Every year we get americans coming up here and doing that 'spotlighting' thing. So gross and I don't understand the point of just… killing for the sake of killing? Maybe for some social media selfies of them next to a pile of dead deer? I always get a kick out of the annual article of the american that gets caught with 100 walleye over limit and gets his boat and truck taken away.
Why isn't this guy at all focused on the source, the reason for most of what he is talking g about is that cannabis in the United States is still federally illegal. Why isn't he focused also on making cannabis legal at the federal level?
I think with the masses of people coming across the border now, the human trafficking issue should be much more visible. Where do you think they all go? I keep wondering why nobody asks that question, where are they all going? Sure, some are visibly homeless in places, but not at the numbers coming across. I doubt most have family to go to. Iād be willing to bet most become indentured servants and likely working in these illegal drug operations as well as sex work. Unless you have enough money to not be enslaved, the poor will usually end up that way, one way or another.
Itās a much more prescient issue than most will acknowledge. Human subjugation at its worst, right here where we all live.
This kind of thing is hardly new, just reported more. I grew up in a small town 25 miles outside portland, OR, where all the farms (and now vineyards & wineries) are and my parents were always involved in the local Hispanic community. Most of them were migrant farmers, often with their families but with many single men who came up for work during the season as well. Very large part of our local community.
Anyway my brother had a seasonal job once picking something or other, somewhere around mid-1980s, and he went to work at one farm and told us how they had gun towers and how many of the workers were basically enslaved (migrants and the cartels) and couldnāt leave. He never went back.
Mom had worked at a local nonprofit and did outreach work with this community, on top of teaching English to Spanish speaking migrants at a local Hispanic cultural center (Dad taught Spanish to the gringos who also came). We went to a Spanish speaking Mormon church when I was a kid, so I was pretty familiar with our local Hispanic community. My parents had both lived in Mexico on their missions in the early 60s.
I remember we went out to the farms to deliver sleeping bags, toys, etc from the place Mom worked. One place I saw (probably around 1989) was a large horse stall where each stall had a family living in it. One end had long tables with Coleman stoves for their cooking. No indoor running water or electricity other than the overhead lights. There were migrant camps with temporary shelters the next block over from our house, very clearly not following building codes or safe and ignored by local governments.
My point is there was cartel-driven indentured servitude and slave labor going on up until quite recently right here just outside Portland, OR (and maybe still for all I know). And I know for a fact that our then-governor was fully aware as she was seen touring the area and declaring it ānot so badā for habitation. This wasnāt unknown and was permitted because they needed cheap labor to staff the local farms. Nobody discussed it though.
Back then it was food crops like strawberries and such (and still is, we just other things too now) but my point is this isnāt new, nor unusual unfortunately. Hell, the mafia ran Portland city government essentially all the way up until the late 1950s ā a hell of a story if you ever want to look it up. Great mob stories. They were eventually hauled into Washington DC on some charges and everybody from the mayor to the DA to the police chief of Portland was thrown into prison ā most of the leadership. Then it became a hippy kind of city over time.
Anyway as horrific as all this is, my point is we donāt know our history. Growing up around people who survived smallpox & Spanish influenza pandemics, WWI, the Great Depression, tuberculosis and typhoid fever pandemics, then WWIIā¦ just my grandparents alone all witnessed this stuff. Weād hear bits and pieces and stories, but researching the reality of what happened, itās far worse than most of us have ever seen. Itās all there if we pay attention, the subjugation of our fellow humans thatās around us every day. Exploitation of tragedies, poverty and loss.
Things come in cycles. Itās important we recognize them when they show so we can call them out and bring attention to things happening in our own backyards. As this guest says, heās at the foothills of Silicon Valley. I grew up in the foothills of Silicon Forest (microchips are designed here). Itās not new, unfortunately. Coyotes have always been active since border restrictions have been in place, cartels have had a huge influence in the western US for all of our lives.
'The War On Drugs'… This guy dedicated his life and wrote books about cannabis prosecution, now it legal in his state. Would have been better off painting driveways and drinking bud lite imo

Please give better information online
I live in San Bernardino County. Big big problem here with meth and illegal grows.

As one who has taught back country travel, I would like to hear more ideas about how to avoid stumbling into one of these locations.
Also, how much US government corruption is involved with those cartels?

Cannabis should not be illegal any anyone who wants to keep it illegal is an advocate for violence against humanity.

Good video, gained yourself a sub. The China Show sent me over
Summary, in the last few kinutes of this video: If you are a legal farmer, it is so legally troublesome, you should instead become an illegal farmer.
What a waste of timeā¦.. and at the same time oxy killed hundreds of thousands

What are we going to do about it?

Who do you think works in all those farms?
Can't RICO be used for the prosecution?

When did the US stop eradicating foreign invaders?
