$28m worth of P ingredients seized October 22, 2008 - stuff.co.nz
Customs has seized a $28 million haul of drugs used to manufacture methamphetamine or 'P' - the third largest haul of its kind in New Zealand.
Concealed in a shipment of furniture from China, 100 kilograms of Contac NT, a form of pseudoephedrine, was discovered in Auckland on October 10 - only weeks after an 80kg seizure.
Customs Manager Drug Investigations Bill Perry said this was now the third largest pseudoephedrinehaul in New Zealand.
"It was a result of good intelligence and particularly vigilant and diligent work by our officers on the ground," he said.
"It's always a huge boost for our people when we make discoveries like this - especially when they're this big."
Pseudoephedrine is the principal component used in the manufacture of the drug methamphetamine (P) and 100 kilograms of Contac NT could make some 28 kilos of methamphetamine with a street value of around $28 million.
Mr Perry said a joint investigation between Customs and Police into the importation of this shipment had resulted in two men being charged with import and possession for supply of a class C controlled drug.

An ounce would have to be alot more than that to make a $1,000,000 kilo just break even.

>>>i wish hard drugs were never made.
I disagree. The problem is the people who abuse them. If people want to self destruct they can do it in many ways not just hard drug use. People would still self destruct on mushrooms or weed if they wanted too.
We can't blame anything but ourselves for societies problems.
Why do they call it "P" "ice" is way cooler. "Hey man, got any pee?"

Yea, it's sad. My nephew who is like 5 is taking some type of legal amphetamine, but it's okay.....How fucking ridiculous is that. It really pisses me off. I told his doctor what a fucking moron he was, and what a bunch of hypocrite all of you fuckers are...Without the word fuckers.

You don't think maybe removing human greed or violence would be a bit higher priority than drugs ?
If you want to make the world a better place get rid of war and money first.
All the problems stem from human traits. A drug doesn't cause a problem - the human consuming it can though. The same as a gun can't kill someone. Its the human pointing the gun and pulling the trigger that kills.

yes but drugs can certainly make human traits worse, so its not completely a human trait's fault

Agreed drugs can make things worse but then so can a lot of things.
Religion? The army? TV?
Its our job as humans to decipher what we want from this world. To try and surpass the brainwashing and do what we think is best or else become a beast.
Most children are born good with good intention its the environment that usually conditions people onto the bad path.

Of course that's what I am talking about. I'm asking isn't an ounce about $2000.
Hard drugs own soft ones btw.
