I just read an article about the very significant drug abuse problem in New Hampshire (nearly 500 deaths last year). Maybe that would be something Ted Cruz could mention in his campaign, perhaps with some helpful suggestions for local action.
[ perhaps with some helpful suggestions for local action. ]
See post #17
Its a significant problem here in Wisconsin too (heroin) and was a main platform item in the State AG race here.
Mark Belling (fills in for Rush) last summer mentioned during his local show how surprised he was about how much heroin issues he was hearing about early in one show. The next two hours were listeners of his either parents, recovering addicts or current addicts talking about the death or destruction heroin is having on their children’s lives.
Mark was so shocked that he spent the next day talking about what we’re trying to do to fight it.
As the parent of 4 kids I was utterly shocked at how prevalent it has become.
“Maybe that would be something Ted Cruz could mention in his campaign, perhaps with some helpful suggestions for local action.”
Build a tall beautiful wall would be a first good step.
After that, it is a cultural thing, and it seems fighting it is a lost cause. Glamorized throughout the entertainment, sports media.
