    And this is why drug cartels use cute white women as mules - to skate by on “It’s for personal use” excuses if they get caught.

      Also a really fucking stupid take? It should always be based on the facts of the case, not the color of skin or gender. If a cute white woman is carrying guns and hundreds of rounds of ammo punish away.

        Why are you so certain that the people in this case weren’t intentionally smuggling ammunition?

              Have you ever been to the range? How much ammo did you use? If you wanted to smuggle and sell ammo into another country for money, how much would you bring? Would you bring your wife and book a vacation stay?

            Yea, but I don’t have solid evidence either way since I’m not on the ground there - what makes you so certain these people weren’t smugglers? What part of this story has you so willing to go to bat for them?

              Then you should try reading the article. It describes 4 of the recent cases. In those cases people were not found with guns and had 2, 2, 4, and 20 rounds of ammo respectively.

              Go to the gun range once and you’ll understand that’s not smuggling ammunition for criminal use. That’s an oopsie I forgot that was in that bag.
