Shameless Druggers use Old Woman to Smuggle Drugs

Pompano - 3-8-2012 at 09:55 AM

Warning: Some readers may find this post disturbing.

I find this email sent to me to be so sad.

Whoever is making this frail, elderly lady do this should be dealt with harshly and with finality..death by hanging would be fine with me.

I realize there are two sides to this story. I am very disturbed when looking at these photos and hesitated to post them here, but thought it is better to publish what actually happens on our borders.



Our Southern Border is a joke, but we can deploy 100,000+ troops in the Mid-East to secure their borders.
Here's some justification for the pat downs at the airports!

Here you have a 94-year-old Mexican national, just simply on her way to visit her friends and relatives across the International border in Arizona, all the while passing through the port of entry at Nogales, Arizona, maby several days per week??!!





After all, she's 94 years old, so what harm could this poor innocent little Mexican Grandma do?
Well, I'll be dipped!

What's all that padded stuff affixed to her body, underneath her dress? (Gee-Wiz, could that be some "contraband"??)



Why it's 10.45 pounds of marijuana, strapped to her body!




Can we blame her? After all, she's probably just supplementing her United States SSI check that she picks up monthly at her P.O. box on the American side. (This may be a rare type case, but it is happening!!)





And one can't help but wonder how many of these trips has she already made across the border, toting 10.5 pounds of marijuana...





Don't expect to have the national media air this one. They're too busy trying to tell us to give amnesty to all illegals.
It's just another damned good argument to enforce the safety of our borders!

Our news media should be ashamed for not airing this story and others like it...but by now, most of us realize they have no shame or honor and are instead persueing their own agendas.

I am concerned for us all who think we should be getting honest representation from our government and news media.

This happened about two years ago and it was reported in the news. I wonder what happened to her?

Nuthin new, using old folks to mule has been going on for years.

These photos are proof that our borders are being policed.

Pompano - 3-8-2012 at 10:38 AM

Seems I have been 'scooped' then? Shucks..and all that stuff...

Was Fox News the only news agency reporting this...or don't you know?

Whenver I watch FoxNews, I notice their news articles are primarily wedge issues that tell half the truth to make me wonder, "What is going on?" The dumb part is how people rely on FoxNews for the majority of the "news" they view. Googlenews.com contains so much more information than the political commentary FoxNews can provide. It is better to be aware than manipulated by the Fox agenda, IMO.

How do you turn a post about a 94 y.o. woman caught smuggling marijuana into an anti FoxNews rant? It was reported by many news sources at the time, and this has nothing to do with politics and your biased opinion.

Personally I watch MSNBC, PBS News Hour, and Fox News for my TV coverage of the news, and rely on the internet for detail on current topics. I find that FOX NEWS by far is the most unbiased, complete, and factual of all the TV coverage, tho PBS does do a pretty good job with a leftist slant, of course.

Perception and pre-disposition is everything when interpreting News, isn't it? :light:

ah,... the same corporate empire that specializes in wire-tapping and phone hacking to generate gossip for their news shows!

they practice "fair and balanced" violation of civil rights!

i don't think clark kent or lois lane or jimmy olsen or cronkite or murrow would have ever hired on at a rupert murdach company!

wessongroup - 3-8-2012 at 01:42 PM

Tough old girl... IMHO ...

Not to sure how many at 94 could add another 10 pounds and take a hike ...

A little surprised she would be moving "pot" ... as 10 pounds of smack, coke, or crank would be a lot more money .. just saying

Pompano - 3-8-2012 at 03:57 PM

My point was..and is...the gross and shameful treatment of the elderly. But then, it's a moot point, as it the fault of druggers, who have no shame or morals anyway.

As far as news networks go...I am a news addict, leaning towards a historical high. Comparing all, I will trust in FOX to present me more factual news and less politcal hacking as do the other Corrupt Non-News networks. I'm the expert on what I believe..and I believe FOX to be far less biased than MSNBC, ABC, CNN, or CBS. Just my personal observations from actual news events that certain networks never seem to give us full information..depending on their political agendas.



Lo siento, but ..given the way this thread is going...I just couldn't resist this good one on these two clowns and their mistakes.

Pompano, FOX tells it like it is. And the rest? Not too may people tune in to them.

vandenberg - 3-8-2012 at 04:22 PM

It's pot folks. What's the big deal?
They grow that stuff all over California.
Now...if it was heroin, it would be something to be concerned about.

Throw that old hag in jail and toss away the key. I feel safer already.:biggrin:

That hero Randall Cunningham would have her shot!
Oh, that's right, right up until his son got popped with a few lbs.

Should've shot that traitor....

Fox News gets OutFoxed by Bill Clinton!

So...this is the same hustler who pointed his finger at America and lied with such conviction?

BajaBlanca - 3-8-2012 at 07:07 PM

I know none of you can understand Portuguese (as far as I know), but the Brazilian channel is superb at telling news as it really is.

We also watch the BBC and it is great too.

No, you have the wrong guy!

Naw...I think we got the right guy in mind...not much doubt about that at all!





"Sheesh...are we completely off our rockers? What happened to the little old lady scammed by the smugglers?"

Somehow Ken Cooke turned this into a political issue which is typical of him. The old lady was more than likely deported with no charges filed and her border crossing privileges revoked.

Clinton later had surgery for Peyronie's disease after Paula Jones
gave a description of his genitals.
