    I just find it funny that they said they used the Internet to buy it, so what did they do, put it in will call just this side of the border and drive to pick it up once it’s safely inside the country? No they used the USPS the biggest drug trafficker of our current time.

        Not in the least, still. I’m not saying don’t get your drugs in the mail, I’m saying don’t blame Mexico.
