According to the 2014 Report of the International Narcotics Control Board, seizures of methamphetamine at the United States-Mexico border increased from just over 2 tons in 2008 to over 10 tons in 2012.

The International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) said that law enforcement efforts led by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration targeting heroin traffickers had led to an increase of more than 320% in seizures along the United States-Mexico border between 2008 and 2013.

In its 2014 report, the INCB said that "methamphetamine manufacture in Mexico has been increasing, with the United States continuing to be the largest market for the substance. Seizures of methamphetamine at the United States-Mexico border have also increased signficantly, from just over 2 tons in 2008 to over 10 tons in 2012."

Heroin killed 52 people in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) in August. But they and their families were not victims, I guess.

History proves that “going Singapore” is the only thing that works to stop heroin and opium.

I guess making us regular citizens have to sign our names away and show our drivers license just to buy some Sudafed hasn't worked...

but the authorities knew that, now didn't they....

This is another instance of where we have been whipsawed by progressives.

Laws of old only cared how you behaved. Not what propelled you.

Heroin seizures

That's probably what Hillary is having. Maybe she's needing to go hardcore to keep from coughing.

I am Christian and as a Christian I don't believe that those who work hand in glove with Satan to poison and enslave people should be given a slap on the wrist any more than those who bear false witness as a matter of routine should be believed when they claim they're Christian.

Perhaps you could show a historical heroin or opium plague that was stopped any other way instead of pretending you're somehow qualified to judge everyone else while dragging the beam around in your own eye.

How about you read about the way Christ stops the power of addiction, then go shamefaced away to actually understand the New Testament for the first time in your life?!?

Indeed you should preach what you intended to preach to me, to yourself in a mirror.

Is that the same product being shipped out of the boom industry of poppy fields our government protects in Afghanistan?

“Going Singapore” would screech to a halt the first time you lined up Johnny or Suzie Whitebread up against the wall.

And while were awaiting your solution perhaps you would like to include your solution to this state of affairs available for your consideration right here on FR :

Drug deaths outnumber traffic fatalities in US

However, I suspect I'll see nothing but he usual hot air and pretense of Christian belief.

You could be right, in fact, probably are in fact, but judging by history nothing but that approach halts the plague of drug addiction.

You in fact are a fan not of Christ or even of Christians — but of “Christianization” (as in a secular-at-heart society that apes it). Form of religion, denying its power.

Vices never disappear that are swept under the rug this way. They only transform into other forms that are, for the current time, escaping the public opprobrium.

We have traded a little suppression of drug habits for a whopping boat load of crime, and not even the pressure cooker of Singapore and China has escaped the way evil always finds new outlets.

You are SITTING on the solution and it is going nowhere because you are too damned proud.
