United States Marines perform a drug raid in the Garmsir District.
The drug industry is intertwined with the insurgency in
Afghanistan -- and U.S. military and government agencies know they can undermine one by destroying the other. Marine Sgt. Ashleigh Bryant reports from southern Afghanistan, where two recent drug raids are leading to big yields.

Maybe Afghanis are pissed at Americans because these guys come over claiming to represent America then steal and destroy their drugs. I'd be pretty pissed if foreigners busted my door down and stole all of my drugs.

@n8vySEALspwn247 weed's not really addicting, but habit forming, you can do it everyday without much negative consequences, but yeh weed sometimes does make you lazy, since it relaxes you. I did stop smoking tho, but it just sucks that everyone I know is just smoking weed, hard to resist, but so far so good.

@WRXisdabest The problem with weed is its addicting. Mentally, and with Marines smoking pot shit would get done. Plus weed has a lazy culture to it.

@n8vySEALspwn247 I love the Marines, but I dont think weed should be illegal, thats the only thing keeping me from enlisting, alcohol is alot worse of for you, and the drinking age is 18 for Marines for special occasions, I really hope weed becomes legal, its already legal in CA for medicinal use, and pretty much everyone smokes in CA

Are these guys EOD or some kind of special Marines? I'm pretty sure Mar. CIRAS's aren't issued to front-line troops. And a black t-shirt isn't part of the uniform...

@n8vySEALspwn247 They get it from the opium fields in Afghanistan, opium is in crack or something. Anyway, that's why when we first got in Afghanistan, we started burning the fields, until we started getting complaints from the farmers.
