Gforcejunkypkt Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I was walking through the airport just immediately after they had taken the guys down almost in front of Burger King where I was heading. It was pretty hardcore, 2 dudes exhausted from resisting arrest, "I'm f*cked..." written all over their faces, throngs of police, airport security and TV cameras. Nonetheless I pushed my cart through the crowd, as I was pretty hungry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, yeah ... well, personnally I have a hard time believing that the biggest drug lord in the area is Laotian ... What I do believe is that he could be among the biggest of the small fish, somehow sacrificed for PR or internal motives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world has had "drugs" for millennia, and outlawing them has NEVER worked. Think prohibition. And yes alchohol kills hundreds of thousands ever year all over the world and is legal almost everywhere.

Take your time to think about it.. Thank goodness TV dummies are not making the arrest I think you are getting a bit carried away my friend, the article says he was with 1 other man and 2 women, not an army. 10 police would have been fine, plus you mentioned a bloody gun fight in your previous post, what drug dealers would go to an airport armed with guns if they are trying to keep a low profile????
