Yes but their better people than you'd think.
*Edit: Good for being on the run and avoiding the system.
*Edit2: I'd like to clear up a few things for you guys that seem to have some idea that you know how this shit works. As its been said a few times, they move literally TONS. Not kilos, tons. Tons of kilos, even. To the person saying they must get shipments of 10 or so kilos mailed, no...the Cartels are the source they don't need to go buy shit. Also, drugs that really do come from them are actually very high quality 9x of 10.
I know this because I have spent the majority of my life in a border town and only have ever used SR/BMR etc for Psychedelics as their harder to find in the area but I've never seen bud online that is of higher quality than I can get locally, and no I'm not in a medical state either. Another thing I can tell you is that the Mexican cartel war is right outside, and its really more like the people vs the government. I won't get to specific, but the people I've affiliated with are actually generally very good people. Theres good and bad people everywhere, but part of why I like SR so much is that my "friends" have a very similar mentality to what is generally apparent here.
Sorry but it begins to offend me when people talk down on these guys, nobodies perfect but many of them are much better than many of you. Most my friends I know for a fact I can trust with my life because they've proven it before, such as by taking a gun out of someones hand and bashing their head in with it. I can also tell you that they don't go after people who aren't asking for it. If your an average person wanting drugs from these people you can expect to be fucked over because they have no reason to respect you, and chances are you look like a retard to them. If you talk shit, you steal, you snitch, your a cop...your asking for it.
Last thing I feel I should mention, is that my home town is in the middle of a war between the Sinaloa & Los Zetas, as far as cartels go. Also in the middle of eMe/Sur13 vs Norte fags and Aryan Brotherhood vs well everyone except themselves and eMe lol and the list goes on. Yet, no one realizes it when they pass through for whatever reason or even people who have lived in the area a very long time. My two main points here is that their (for the most part) far more intelligent and good hearted strongly willed loving caring people than your average person, and that when it comes down to it all these wars between organizations was initiated by the governments of the world, which is obvious on the front lines. All in all, go look at some reports on people living under cartels, as in literally areas completely controlled by them. Most will tell you its much better but they hate the police because they raid people without just cause among other bullshit that government agents do. Oh and for the psychedelic users in here, they are actually (mainly) more highly evolved than the average person, such as you most likely are, and keep in mind that one of the aforementioned organizations had banned drive-bys, will kill their own people for hurting innocents etc etc etc and are deeply rooted in Aztec and Mayan culture. Think about it
