Drug catapult found on Mexican border

[Skroe]

Why didn't I think of this? There's a pretty solid fence along some parts of the border and since people think it's secure, the bad guys set up a catapult on the Mexican side to hurl drugs over the fence.

DOUGLAS, Ariz. -- Border Patrol agents in southern Arizona say they’ve seized two bundles of marijuana that were catapulted across the border from Mexico.

While patrolling an area east of the Douglas Port of Entry last Friday, agents noticed several people running from the border fence as they approached.


They reported finding a catapult system attached to the south side of the fence and two bundles of marijuana, weighing more than 47 pounds combined.

Agents dismantled the catapult, which was seized by Mexican authorities.

Federal authorities say in recent years, smugglers have thrown drug bundles over the border or shot them over with devices such as air-powered cannons and catapults.



The fence separating Douglas AZ from the town of Agua Prieta is pretty substantial.

Shocking, isnt it, that ever since the creation of walls, people have looked for ways to get OVER them.

Shocking also, isn't it, that some solutions remain timeless.

Hey man, this physics based solution discovered 2500 years or so ago is still pretty new. It takes time for society to adapt to technological innovations like this, especially with government packed with anti-science officials.

To the Alt-Reich, the most fantastical part of Lord of the Ring: Return of the King, wasn't the one ring, or hobbits, or orcs. It was the successful use of siege engines by the Army of Sauron.

This man has a few thought about walls.



It's okay, the Alt-reich will find its end the same way.

I honestly feel like Trump and his supporters are still operating off a mental image of immigrants literally flooding across the border, so that you'd have this massive wave of humanity bum rushing the wall and stopped cold, where they can be conveniently gunned down by "heroic" border patrol agents.

Yep. It's a $20B+ emotional security blanket, nothing else.

"MY BLANKY!"


Jokes aside, I always thought the wall was a dumb idea.

Oh I'll tell you exactly where this comes from. This picture and what it represents.



This is a photo of refugees from Syria and Iraq entering Austria, en-masse, last year. We've all read about the refugee crisis in Europe. These human flows have happened, but they are spurned by:

-> There is a large land connection from a massive war zone, to continental Europe
-> Russia and Syria have weaponized the refugee crisis to put pressure on the EU and Europe as part of their foreign policy.

It however, represent something basic to the alt right, a huge swarm of brown people flooding into lands occupied by white people. But it also represents something else: not something that is happening in America.

The Alt-Right is intrinsically racist. They dress it up in words and stunts, but at the basis of their entire belief system is the fact that White Americans are rapidly going from being a majority in this country to a plurality, to eventually minority-majority. The alt-right is the pushback. But the one thing they don't have is what you see above: waves of brown skinned people flowing into our borders. Mexicans and Central Americans are simply not doing that.

But their entire world view requires it.... so they've engineered the idea of it. They keep repeating the same lies about illegal immigration, to create the idea that this wall is needed. This wall is just a monument to their xenophobia. It is a symbolic declaration of intent, not a functional thing: Brown people stay out.

Basically, they're making their own reality, because they want to be racist.
