I just heard on the news...

You know how on airplanes, they hand out those little bags of peanuts? Well police at the airport discovered 51 bags that were full of cocain, from a flight that came in from Columbia. That is a very clever smuggling plan, I would reckon this method has been used before and this is the first time they've caught this.

My question is... If they opened the bags and put cocain inside, that would make the bags too obvious, with the plastic/foil wrapper being torn open, and presumably tapped back together or something. Besides cocain could spill out, and even very small amounts of that stuff is incredibly expensive. Well that's my guess anyway

So how is it that they came up with bags that were originally sealed with cocain? I would assume you would need a big manufacturing plant to have plastic bags produced with the Delta or US Air logos on them. I mean those things look industrial quality. I mean I can't use my Lexmark Z45 printer to try and make counterfeit US dollars, even an old man with alzheimers could realize one in an instant without even comparing it to a real bill. If the bags didn't look like the real thing, then the plot wasn't so clever after all. But if they did..... how is it drug lords in Columbia would get ahold of the equipment necessary to make peanut bags of that quality? I doubt someone would sell such machines to a druglord in Columbia (in fact it would probably be very hard to get your hands on one in the first place)

So, what do you think? :bugeye:

You can buy the sealers at stores for $30 or so... like the FoodSaver. I got one at home.

Are you sure they could efficiently reseal that kind of bag?

My sealer can reseal plastic bags and those bags that Ruffle's chips come in (I think it is metal or something in there.. I am not quite sure).

It does not make the "5 line seals" but a single seal line. Looking closely one can tell the bag has been resealed but other than that, no one can tell the difference.

Well it definitely makes 2 things certain, one being that alot more americans use drugs than than average person might imagine, and the second being the Columbians sure are desperate to get drugs into the USA, they wouldn't resort to measures like this if they weren't going to get any money from it - same way as the Jamaican druglords wouldn't drop sealed boxes of marajuana out in the middle of the ocean if they weren't making any profit from that method

interesting. im suprised drug dogs didnt smell em out.

So that's why they don't hand out those peanutbags anymore, they are used for drug smuggling.

So t hat's why they might give you peanutbags if you're not middle eastern, they might be used for drug smuggling, maybe.

The most easiest way to transport drugs (Weed anyway) Is to put the "sacks" in a shampoo bottle, preferencely filled with shampoo which would prevent the smell to linger among those cute dogs, and the shampoo bottle would be left obviously, unchecked.
