Oh. What does 134 tons of marijuana look like? Just ask good ol' Mexico.


Sooooo. Mexico did the biggest marijuana bust in what they believe to be all of Mexico's marijuana-busting days. However, they don't know the exact record that was previously set (it must change so often that it's hard to keep track). Yet they insist that it has to be the biggest bust. I mean 134 tons is A. LOT. So, I don't doubt it. But it is Mexico.

All of the soldiers who were transporting the bales of marijuana from the tractor trailers to the burning site (I know a lot of people who would have paid to attend that) were wearing masks. Like SARS masks. As if they were going to contract some kind of reefer madness if they inhaled the plant material, which is not toxic. They stacked the 134 bales into the greatest wall I've ever seen. And then they burned that motherfucker down. They said it would take 2 days for the burning to finish. 2 days of burning marijuana. And, probably all of Mexico smells a lot fresher.

And, you can read the full New York Times article right HERRE.
