I love how it said they sold the planes at "inflated prices". As if it is bad that they ripped off the drug runners!

Only if they refuse to sign autographs.

Say what you want, but Don has always been very nice to me. I have several autographs of the IMSA, CART and Reno stuff.

Just sayin.

Don found out about the bolivian B-17E meat hauler while on vacation in sunny Lakeland Florida.When he went back to work one of the first things he did was fly that 17 back to Miami from la paz.Its a stretch but sometime "time" pays.I saved him a bunch of money long time back. :drink3:

Actually he did . He contributed a lot financially to his home town of Medellin where he is considered a hero. I guess he could buy loyalty even if was the devil!

You guys do realize that comparing these guys to actual (drug dealers) killers is a bit of a stretch?
While I'm not condoning what they did, they're (allegedly) the "White Collar" side of the drug trade...same as bankers who did money laundering or politicians who took semi-dirty "contributions".

Besides, (if the percentage of pot users is close to what the pro-pot lobby suggests) I'm sure a few of you have helped finance the trade by buying their product. :)
Anyone here wiling to compare themselves to Pablo and his gang?

Quite interesting the posts going on here. My new philosophy of thinking just a little bit longer before posting is really being put to the test in this thread. Nothing I'd love better than to rip some new a-holes, but since it is thanksgiving of all days, I'll refrain from comment on this threads discussion.

To spare a few of you who need an attitude adjustment regarding the big picture, again I'll refrain from comment for fear of being banned once again. This is a conversation I'd LOVE to have with any of you in person as I sh*t you not you'd be presented personally with enough proof and evidence to change your attitude from one of how nice some people are, who even remotely indulge in drug activity, to one of lock them up and throw away the key.

Take note my comments above are general and NOT specific to any one or two individuals. FWIW there's no such thing as "nice guys" involved in drug activity. Just scumbag losers.
Happy thanksgiving ... I think :evil:

and, unless that $20 you got from the ATM is fresh out of the Federal Reserve Bank, it would test positive for traces of Bolivian marching powder, EVERY one in circulation $20 bill does.
