I think he's actually disappointed beause the bill didn't provide funding for him to get more hair product.
Even with Lidocaine and legal, regulated Fentanyl, it was in the top 3 most painful things I've had to endure.
I was about to say, these guys are upset their feral governments aren’t giving them more draconian laws to kick in people’s doors, use asset forfeiture, and otherwise harass people in their own homes!
I think every cop, politician, lawyer, judge, DA, or anyone else involved in the CRIMINAL “war on drugs” scheme should be drug through a street of broken glass over a tar road during a Texas August day about noon, behind wild horses!!
You better think twice before snorting that line of coke... It may be laced with it.
“No drug is safe right now. No drug is safe. We are finding fentanyl in cocaine, we are finding it in heroin, we’re finding it in meth, we’re finding it in OxyContin,” 17th Judicial District Attorney Brian Mason said.
Why is fentanyl in the drugs? The market place wants it?
My one reference in this case is one drug user hated another drug user so convinced/paid the drug supplier to add fentanyl to the other guys drugs to give him a “heart attack”. The first guy talked too much about it so the drug supplier repeated the process. Told to me by another former prison cadet.
Wow, there actually is a law this putz thinks should be enforced? I had no idea.
beause = because, of course.
The Denver Chief chose his side...F his disappointment.
“Denver police chief ‘very disappointed’ by new fentanyl bill”
Apparently, the child (or children) of the appropriate CO politicians haven’t died of an OD yet. Lose a few of those...maybe the pols will change their minds.
That excuse only works if you believed you were taking apple pie, or M&Ms, or scrambled eggs. You knew you were taking a drug for "recreational" reasons and if you didn't mix up the batch yourself you had no way to know what was in it. Your death is on YOU.
The chief has plenty of drug laws he doesn’t enforce, so this isn’t about drugs, this is about him not getting a big budget.
So, not old enough for hemorrhoid surgery?
Had a bone marrow biopsy in my hip. Not even in top 10. The local anesthetic was quite effective. Maybe location matters.
I think the nurse anesthetist was erring on the very low side.
I hate the term “stakeholder”.
It’s usually a euphemism for special interest group.
Decriminalize drugs and give them away.
Yeah, I stopped at that first sentence and asked who in the world would be a “stakeholder” for illegal fentanyl. I have no clue who that would be.
My son is a deputy sheriff in Florida. He told me that the overdose deaths were up a lot in his county and it wasn't because the druggies were using more dope. It was that the dope was laced with fentanyl.
Fentanyl is in the drugs because it’s cheaper and easier to produce and smuggle. And far more potent. So instead of heroin, you get baking soda and a dollop of fentanyl or something like that.
They are putting into all kinds of pills too. You think you’re buying (illegally) xanax or ecstasy and instead you’re getting talcum powder with fentanyl.
The war on drugs has been an utter disaster. The war on pain medications just made things a whole lot worse. A decade ago it was fairly easy to get a prescription for pain medications and true, many got hooked on them by misusing them. But now you can’t get pain medications very easily and those who were hooked ended up buying street drugs - ultimately fentanyl pressed into tablets, or heroin which is now seemingly mostly fentanyl anyway.
I have heard that old school heroin addicts cannot even get high from real heroin anymore. They need the fentanyl. It’s that potent, addicting, and creates that high a tolerance. And, the wrong dose will kill you. Unmitigated disaster which we created without thinking through the consequences of policy decisions.
And as far as this bill goes, I don’t know what amount of fentanyl will kill a person but I am not in favor of locking up dime bag addicts for possession charges.
