San Diego drug tunnel had railcar, tons of pot
Source: Associated Press

The tunnel found Thursday is more than seven football fields in length and extends from the kitchen of a home in Tijuana, Mexico, to two warehouses in San Diego's Otay Mesa industrial district.

Three men were arrested in the United States, and the Mexican military raided a ranch in Mexico and made five arrests in connection with the tunnel, authorities said.

U.S. authorities have discovered more than 125 clandestine tunnels along the Mexican border since the early 1990s, though many were crude and incomplete.

The passage found Thursday is one of the most sophisticated to date, with an entry shaft in Mexico lined with cinderblocks and the rail system, Unzueta said.

1. We keep trying to tell them...
In Cali we don't need their weed. I don't know a single soul that has smoked Mexican Cannabis since around 1978. This is, after all, California people.

4. This is Mexi weed, which will get you high...
and costs a fraction of the "hydro".

The price difference is dramatic from hydroponic weed. For the Mexi it's like $500 a pound, for the boutique hydro it can be that much an ounce.

2. This is hilarious
Legalize cannabis now, before the military, cops, and NASA argue for spending billions to effectively detect underground smuggling trains.

5. They should get rid of alligators in the sewers too
Especially the alligators that carry pot with those little alligator backpacks.
