An 18-month-old girl allegedly ate candy laced with methamphetamine and had to be hospitalized, according to staff at General Hospital in Rosarito, Baja California, about 25 miles south of the border.

The toddler was admitted to the hospital on Tuesday morning.

Police say a pediatrician at the facility determined the girl had gotten sick after eating a piece of candy, and that tests revealed she had meth in her system.

Mexicans don’t care about their children. Otherwise they wouldn’t let this happen.

Here in Phoenix we went from Cannibis being illegal, to available with prescription, to recreational.

Now, our neighbor’s pot smoking makes makes my front lawn smell awfull when he has a party.

While tobacco ads, where they are allowed, are dominated with warnings, the cannibis ads are colorful and warning free.

Here in Phoenix, there are billboards for “Ladylike Cannibis” (by women, for women), cannibis gummies, cannibis seltzer, cannibis cheeseburgers, cannibis coffee, cannibis pizza, etc. For something that was a prescription medicine not long ago, dosing controls have gone completely out the window.

With all these packaged products containing cannibis, I am sure plenty is winding up in children. I know a hot of cannibis is not as serious as meth, but the imprimatur of the entire consumer structure making it impossible to avoid makes it much, much more likely for anyone who has money for these products (I am sure they are not cheap).

SOME Mexicans do not care about there children. Same can be said about Anglos, Jews, Blacks, Asians, etc.

I don't know what country you are from, but I am from the United States, and we have no business looking down our noses at Mexicans over this.

In the last two years, I have seen so many toddlers who have died from eating fentanyl. Not to mention children of other ages. I just looked and there were some meth ones also, but a lot of fentanyl.

That's not to mention how we tell children they are transgender, and give them terrible surgeries and drugs for it. We are light years ahead of Mexico in that. Hopefully, Mexico never goes there.

But we do a lot of bad things to our children here.

I like em when I can get them to spur my appetite. I lost my taste a couple years ago so I have to force myself to eat

Gummies help but the sativa can lay you out

Definitely not for the kiddies

Thats why that “reparations” settlement between the freak in the White Hut and the aclu azhos is a joke. Dumbass Bidenskyyyyy agreed that the border patrol separated kids from their families when it was the friggin Mexicans who were pointing the toddlers in shiddy diapers towards America and told them to move out briskly. Bidenskyyyyy’s big money settlement with those bastards is THIEVERY OF MONEY BELONGING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. The crap at the border does not deserve any of his dumbass “reparations” and the aclu pigs should be thrown in jail.

*Mexicans don’t care about their children.*
*Wrong……they care as much as anyone.*

I’ll be happy to say whatever makes their butt hurt. They need to pay more attention.

“dosing controls have gone completely out the window.”

Are they less than the dosing controls on the drug alcohol?

When was alcohol EVER prescribed?

(and I never “fought” for alcohol—legal or illegal).
