Colombia’s Most Wanted Drug Lord | The War on Drugs

Dairo Antonio Úsuga, alias “Otoniel”, was Colombia’s most wanted drug lord - until October 2021 when he was arrested in a massive military operation, involving over 500-special forces.
But was he really the new Pablo Escobar? We look at how the Colombian drug trade has transformed since the days of the Medellin and Cali cartels to see how important the fall of this latest kingpin really is.

Very true. We should be attacking the demand on drugs, not supply of drugs. Drug prevention, treatment and the reasons why people get in to drugs should be addressed because you can never stop the flow of drugs. Trying to stop the flow of drugs, only makes these cartels make more money off of it and causes a bunch of other problems with our prison systems, lack of fathers (because they are in jail) and also putting these drug dealers in jail only increases their connections for when they get out of jail. None of this deals with prevention and addiction or treatment.

The irony is, if you legalize all drugs there will be no business for drug lords and they will die out. Sure, they will find other ways to make money but the drug black market would be crushed and drugs being regulated a lot less people would die from overdoses.

[@brunolondinese5857]

What if regulated, legal drugs are much more expensive that the "traditional" (current) black market provides and the vast majority of consumers continue to give their money to cartels? We can see with legalization of cannabis in the US that the regulations make it incredibly hard to operate and very expensive product.

[@jordaneckart2600]

I’m not sure what the actual #s are but here in FL where prescribed weed is legal, but you can’t recreationaly smoke. So you have to pay to see a Dr to get a weed card then pay for the weed card, and after that it’s every 6 months you have to basically renew your weed card which is not free, and then after all that go to the weed store and buy essentially over priced weed. So what I’m getting at is Iknow 10 people that have there weed card and Iknow 0 who keep going to the weed store and renewing there card, they just go to the street and get weed 100x cheaper, taxing drugs and legalizing drugs will not change anything at all

The question you should be asking is why are people turning into drug addicts. You'll find the solution there. But in the meantime, legalization of all drugs in America and all of Mexico, Latin America, and South America would end the war in drugs overnight. The profit doesn't come from selling to their own people, the profit comes from smuggling into the US. Fat chance of it ever happening though. Too many countries, too little cooperation, too little reason to legalize because once that money is able to be tracked we as citizens can actually see what they're using those funds for. So it will never happen.

So let me understand this. Sellers are bad guys but snorters are the good guys.

[@DeusExHomeboy]

That's not where the moral magic happens. It's based on what either of them do While/after producing/using the drugs. And ofc, where the money is put.

Whats the track called in the intro

[@Skyhulk95]

We want to congratulate drugs for winning the war on drugs

[@xxalmightyxx2304]

Narcos in Colombia probably by now own fully working submarines that cant be detected. Prob made in russia and shipped to colombia. This is just a thought,considering all the billions they got laying around and all the connections all around the world uncluding russia and china. Its been a while since they captured a semi summersible. Imagine all the ones that get away and go thru on the weekly bases. Each trip can bring 1/4 billion to half a billion each trip,probably even more. Specially if they ship them to europe where its triple the price.

10:48 "we'd like to congratulate drugs for winning the war on drugs," although you cant really do that. the war is still raging.

[@fallingiguanas6326]

Right 😂

[@connorriley7511]

@@fallingiguanas6326 it says winning, which can imply continuing to win, not that it was won. the drugs will always be winning the so called war.

@@connorriley7511 Drug wars only cause more violence that's just how it works. I remember Reagan going on rants about the drug war even as a child thinking that's not going to end well. Living in Escobar's back yard at the time.😂

To win the war on drugs, plants that have any chemical that can be used would have to go extinct, which is almost impossible to achieve

The 90’s trance music and footage of coke being processed in the first 10 seconds of this video surely just makes people wanna do coke, which I’m guessing isn’t the purpose of this video.
