      Fun fact, we know how it gets into the states.

      The fentanyl, or the precursor chemicals are shipped to Mexico, and then white Americans drive across the border and pick up one or two brick sized packages that then sell for millions.

      The packages are easy to hide, and racist border control doesn’t search the white guy crossing the border with nearly as much enthusiasm as they do the brown guys crossing the same border.
