Mexican Drug Cartels Are Growing Marijuana
in U.S. National Parks and Forests
Mexican cartels have a multibillion-dollar operation
cultivating marijuana in National Parks and Forests in the U.S.,
said John P. Walters, who heads the White House Office of National
Drug Control Policy, according to a July 23rd Washington Times
article by Jerry Seper. Protected by heavily armed Mexicans and
members of U.S. gangs, marijuana growers are clear-cutting forest,
illegally hunting wildlife, diverting waterways, and leaving mountains
of trash and human waste in Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington,
Hawaii, Kentucky, Tennessee, and West Virginia.
