Tries is a hardened white racist, and Swinney a hardened black gang member. Killing each other would be the norm, but when it comes to big money, small feuds fade.
The 'operation' divides labor between supply and processing. Profits split 50/50. Swinney sold large quantities of pseudoephedrine to Tries who then cooks up street meth to sell back to poor blacks for big bucks.
Federal law restricts the amount of cold medicines (source of pseudoephedrine) bought in a 30-day period. Swinney employed homeless, gang members, anyone who'd buy their quota of the over-counter product for a buck.
The bust proves blood enemies will team up when drugs and money can be made. If a dimwitted gang banger like Swinney can game the law, then the law obviously is a joke.
