CBP(Customs,Border Protection) greets you at the ports of entry. The "greenies,migra,etc greet you at the checkpoints. There is one on every paved road leading away from the border. They are looking for human smugglers and ANY illegal substance. They will detain you if you are slurring your words drunk. In New Mexico the State Police can and do set up DWI checkpoints on the interstate. Alamogordo sees a lot of cocaine or did until the narcos started using submarines to transport coke,heroin,meth,etc. Back in the day highway 54 up to I 40 was a major dope route for the midwest,mainly Chicago. I never had a second thought to enter the check with my bud,until they started posting those damn dogs in the line before you even get to the BP agent. I know they use the "best" canines on the border and that the checkpoint barks might be totally useless but it isn't worth the risk. It is only going to get worse for those doing illegal drug activity now that Leyva was killed. Let me put that in perspective...what is a very common "street" name for cocaine? BLO or Beltran Leyva Organization yeah if you thought the war in Mexico was bad before get ready for events that not even the most imaginative mind in Hollywood could think of.
