Border Patrol Nabs 'Meth-Melons', Proving Drugs Are Getting Even More Ripe For The Picking

Those wild leftists at Customs and Border Patrol are at it again, claiming they seized a massive shipment of "meth-melons". Now, I ain't condoning drug use, but you gotta admit - that's a pretty creative disguise! Like something straight outta a Warner Bros. cartoon.

I am incredibly proud of our team for their exceptional work... As drug cartels continue to evolve their smuggling techniques, we will continue finding new and better ways to prevent these dangerous drugs and other contraband from entering the country. - Rosa E. Hernandez, Port Director for the Area Port of Otay Mesa

Seems like Hernandez and her team of federal fun-spoilers uncovered over 1,200 packages stuffed with 4,587 pounds of meth, worth $5 million. And they say crime doesn't pay! These feds must be seeing green–and not from cash, but envy. Leave it to the government to ruin a good time and take all the fun out of smugglers' creative "techniques".

Speaking of which, you gotta read about this sneaky business with celery. Just click here: Celery, Not Your Stereotypical Drug Mule, Has Been Used To Hide 3,000 Pounds Of Meth.

Now, back to our story. The bust went down like this: some poor schmuck, a 29-year-old man, tries to cross into the US of A from Mexico. Next thing he knows, his watermelons are under the knife, so to speak.

The feds uncover the drugs, and like that, our unlucky friend's likely facing a world of hurt. But hey, at least those border patrol agents got a cool $5 million worth of drugs off the streets. I'm sure that justifies their existence, right?
