America's Drug Lords Don't Live in America?

O.K. I try to stay out of politics on HoustonSoReal for the most part. I may come out and say things like "IT'S ALL ABOUT KUCINICH WAKE UP FUCKERS!" But for the most part I'm not going to go nuts on these things in favor of kind of sticking with the music and general debauchery...

But I read this article in the Houston Chronicle today and had to post it.

Basically it's saying things like this...

American drug fighters say that for a variety of reasons, the biggest of bosses stay out of the United States.

"You don't have prominent cartel figures here. Our law enforcement efforts are too good. Our intelligence is too good and we don't have the vast corruption," said Fred Burton, a former federal anti-terrorism agent who is on Gov. Rick Perry's Border Security Council.

James Kuykendall, a retired Drug Enforcement Administration agent, said big-time dealers want to avoid the type of scrutiny they'd draw in the U.S.

"If you get too flashy, there is a red flag," he said. "We do not pursue it as well as we could, but we seem to do better than most Latin American countries."

Uh huh. You guys are great. Never mind that we live in a country where if you have enough money you can get anything you want including diplomatic immunity for them boys on top, and a stick up the ass for those on the bottom.

We have, how you say, "vast corruption."

Come on now man, this shit made me mad. If our intelligence is so grand, why can't the pigs find the two dudes who broke into a house down my street at 2:30 p.m. last week? The woman across the street saw them, took a photo of them, said photo was published and the criminals were in full view. Maybe if the cops would have come to the scene of the crime in progress in less than a hour they would have gotten them...

Man I'ma stay out of this and let you read and decide for yourselves. But these corrupt politicians and police need to just shut the fuck up. This article is a smack in the face to all hard working Americans. And hard working workers all over the world.
