1283923 2012-06-26 01:03:00 It's being harmed by strict enforcement - the trafficking, that is - but there's a new twist on their getaway activities .

It's called: Splashdown .

Let's hope the Texas Navy gets all the high speed pursuit boats it needs . They are equipped with twin, double barrel 30 Cal . machine guns, turret-mounted and quite a few are loaded with triple 300 Horsepower outboards .

1283926 2012-06-26 01:27:00 Some bleeding heart lawyer will sue to stop these being used on these poor deprived drug pushers.. paulw (1826)
1283927 2012-06-26 01:36:00 Nah put some M2 50 cal Mgs on the boat. If you are going to splatter some latino druggies do it properly. 30 cal for limp wrists. prefect (6291)

Singles just fine thats all we have down the sides of our frigates. Three each side.
Christ I bet those treble 300s use some gas, it must be fantastically fast.

They aren't boats for pursuit so much as they are fast for getting to the site of the splashdown. Once the runners are in the river - vehicle and all - they are scooped up by Mexicans and hauled with the drugs back to the Mexican shoreline - safe from US officials.

Since aircraft cannot, by law, shoot while in the air, the helicopters aren't armed with any more than the officer's own personal sidearm. There MIGHT be a shotgun inside, but no fixed, trainable weaponry is allowed unless it's a military aircraft then all bets are off ---- up to nuclear weapons.

I would imagine it would give a slight adrenalin rush.
