Federal authorities in New York on Wednesday seized a shipment of weaves and other beauty accessories suspected to be made out of human hair taken from people locked inside a Chinese internment camp.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials told The Associated Press that 13 tons (11.8 metric tonnes) of hair products worth an estimated $800,000 were in the shipment.
“The production of these goods constitutes a very serious human rights violation, and the detention order is intended to send a clear and direct message to all entities seeking to do business with the United States that illicit and inhumane practices will not be tolerated in U.S. supply chains,” said Brenda Smith, executive assistant commissioner of CBP’s Office of Trade

They can't give it back so why fuck with it?

If you destroy it, they have to wait for that shit to grow back to make money.

Fuck profiteering off of slave labor.

 

[The Plutonian]

Whilst I agree with you, it won't stop them from forcing said slave labor to grow more hair faster or sale something else to make up for the loss.

Sounds like the premise of a hood “heist” movie.
13 tons of illegal hair is about to be destroyed.
Not if we get there first.

Mannnnnn someone bout to get a dirt nap for messing up

 

[trstar]

An elaborate Oceans 8 caper involving duplicate cargo containers. Duplicate packaging, horsehair, and waste plastic are used to fill the replacement container. “they won’t come looking for you if nothing is stolen”
After they get the illegal product selling it for 50% doesn’t seem like a good return.
Now they gotta set up a store. But paying rent, taxes, and other fees is for suckers. So they bum rush an abandoned storefront for a pop up. Now it becomes a quick version of flip this house, where a shithole storefront is transformed into a retail hair store on the cheap. Now they are getting the full retail value of the product. Other problems pop up - new vendors want to see at the spot. A previously unknown hair mafia shows up, community groups want donations. Local media wants to feature the new business. All while on of the arresting agents gets suspicious about the supply.

Being an illegal legal business, is more dangerous than an illegal business
