Just wondering, Just wondering? Are the drugs any less or more dangerous if brought in by Citizens of the US. There is a difference betweeen citizen and native born. By the way, do you know who the only true American is. You'd be right if you said the Native American and look how they've been treated. All this crap over immigration makes me want to put on my Scottish kilt, grab a bottle of Guinness fry up some brats and have a good old party. By the way, is it all Americans or so called illegals taking the pills? Ask yourself that!
