Re: Defining moments - what made you decide to carry?
I was driving a big truck hauling freight between New Jersey and Miami in the middle 1980's . Back then, you just didn't go down into Miami proper without some heat. All those Cuban marielitos, or convicts Castro let loose were around. LOL now, all the freight out of Cinamminson, New Jersey was glass sheets bound for table manufacturers in Miami. You know what glass tabletops are good for? Dividing cocaine into individual doses with razor blades and snorting it right off the glass. Absolutely no waste like wood or tile. The finest semi trailer rigs in the U.S. were pulling refrigerated produce trailers called "reefers" on I-95 between south Florida and the Bronx. Umpteen thousand heads of lettuce on board, and one guy at Hunts Point Market knows which head of lettuce in which packing box has been hollowed out and filled with cocaine or heroin. After that, I got back home and things were pretty calm for almost twenty years until those two hurricanes in 2005, Katrina and Rita. It was time to gun up again. Life just ain't been the same on the Gulf Coast since. You go to the big cities now and you can see it in their eyes, something that wasn't in there before the storms.
