I know someone who used to own some avocado land in Michoacán. She says it’s basically all controlled by the cartels, so she got out. Cartels know it’s bad for business to threaten US inspectors, but they really don’t give a shite about the families running the places. Hopefully the cartel apologizes, cuz I’m need my avocados. I’m hooked now.

Anyone remember this glutinous avocado display at a Rouses in the New Orleans area in 2019?

I wonder how long avocados are good for. Donny and the boys could be fixing to eat.

Didn’t vote for Biden (had Covid, so actually didn’t vote at all, but would have voted libertarian again if I had). And you won’t find me saying everything is ok. OP is just silly as frick.

I’ve literally never spoken about one of my cases on TD, not for lack of opportunity. Saying I represent guys for pwid Heroin is hardly discussing cases

it's because the US inspector got a death threat, related to the cartels. So it's actually somewhat tied to the drug issue, not something independent of it.

The surprise suspension was confirmed late Saturday on the eve of the Super Bowl, the biggest sales opportunity of the year for Mexican avocado growers.


Is the Associated Press really under impression that the avocados being shipped in Saturday would have been used for today’s Super Bowl? The fear mongering and distorting of news to hype up a story line by the AP is ridiculous these days.

Minus today. Maybe you should work on the case rather than wasting time on TD

Are you guys seriously under the impression that this nation’s heroin addiction is being fueled by random jackasses walking/driving across the border? ?
No, I mostly blame the demand from addicts but the Biden administration is basically pouring gasoline over it by being weak on China (the main producer of fetanyl), weak on the border and crime in general, and the use of harm reduction strategies (which has been disproved as an effective strategy). You would have to be an idiot or purposely trying to damage the country to continue the policies. Knowing liberals, it's probably both.

After a while you notice that you can agree with 90% of the beliefs of this board, but if you point out some foolishness in a popular post you are a Marxist.
