And there are plenty more just like me, says
Popeye the Columbian Hitman;
During an interview last year, Popeye said the drug war was unwinnable, because there would always be people like him.
“People like me can’t be stopped. It’s a war,” he told Jochen-Martin Gutsch and Juan Moreno of Der Spiegel.
“They lose men, and we lose men. They lose their scruples, and we
never had any. In the end, you’ll even blow up an aircraft because you
believe the Colombian president is on board. I don’t know what you have
to do. Maybe sell cocaine in pharmacies. I’ve been in prison for 20
years, but you will never win this war when there is so much money to be
made. Never.”
And Pablo Escobar's favorite murderer should know;
Popeye confessed
to killing 300 people and also claimed he had a hand in the deaths of
up to 3,000 people during the 1980s and 90s. He even murdered his own girlfriend at the request of his capo.
In an interview last year, Popeye said Escobar’s orders came down after
he learned she had tried to become an informant for the US government.
He described her murder as one of the most painful episodes in his life.
The costs of good intentions (attempting to keep drugs away from American teenagers).
