        I'm right there with you. Picture looked like a big bag of white chocolate (which, I know, isn't chocolate) and got really excited. Talk about a let-down.

        Well, cocaine is the rich white man's drug of choice and in case you haven't noticed, white is the only who's gotten rich since Jan 2017, so it makes sense they have more money to buy more cocaine.

        I was all excited about chocolate until you mentioned the cocaine. Reading comprehension before coffee is nil

        Hence we are looking at a spike in cocaine usage in the US. I wonder how many of the caravan are carrying some of the crop? @larryelder @frankmorano

        Yeah, but what if Americans are injecting marijuana? We should worry about that first! And jailing people, of course.
