BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — Argentine customs officers have seized more than four tons of a chemical that can be used to make methamphetamine during an investigation into drug traffickers with ties to Mexico.

Mario Crespo, director of investigations for the customs service, says a total of 4.2 metric tons (4.6 tons) of pseudoephedrine was confiscated at several government warehouses at the port in Buenos Aires on Wednesday. No arrests were made.

Carlos Stornelli, justice minister for the province, says the drug seizure is related to an investigation into a clandestine meth lab that was discovered near Buenos Aires last year at which nine Mexicans were arrested.

Funny, how our dear neighbors, the Mexicans are becoming a problem in the rest of Latin and South America. Meanwhile, so many Mexicans are of the opinion that we should let them all into this country if they want to come, pay them, feed them and take care of their children. And if we don't, they march and scream in our streets carrying foreign flags.
