Mexican cops find enough fentanyl to kill more than one million people stuffed into back [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | January 26, 2018 | Staff

Mexican police found a multi-drug shipment that included an astonishing 100 pounds (45.5 kilograms) of the synthetic opioid fentanyl in a vehicle near the city of Ensenada in Baja California, officials said Thursday. Fentanyl can be fatal in doses of just a few milligrams. To put the size of the haul in perspective, a seizure last year of 4.5 pounds (2 kilograms) of fentanyl in Columbus, Ohio, was said by prosecutors to be enough to potentially kill the entire population of the city of 860,000 people.

So...has the world finally found the substance which could successfully poison a small city’s reservoir?

It will instantly kill everyone except a death row inmate.

Mexican police found a multi-drug shipment that included an astonishing 100 pounds Holy High Hell! That's a lot of pain relief. This was likely headed to the DNC to entice voters across the country later this year.

We need a wall.

It’s coming from China.

They are not our friends any more than the Mexicans are.

So exactly when does it become the seizure of a weapon of mass destruction and not a drug bust?

Yep, a wall is racist. Enforcing immigration laws is racist.

You are right and our enemies know drugs, more than anything else, will keep MAGA from becoming reality.

Yep, Trump should declare a state of emergency. You ever see this photo? It compares a fatal amount of heroin to a fatal amount of fentanyl.

Trump should declare a state of emergency because we most certainly are under attack. My friends wife works in the emergency room here in New York, she says almost every night they get a fatal OD. It's so bad here cops have resorted to putting up reward signs, $5000 to anyone who turns in a drug dealer. I have a better idea: BUILD THE WALL, deport ALL illegals, STOP the anchor baby scam, stop chain migration, stop the lottery scam, and put the military at the border.

Funny how only the foreign press is reporting this. I just looked at the US press, no mention.

$5,000 to turn in a drug dealer and risk the repercussions? I think they would have better success if they offer $2,500 to kill one, using a video as proof. (Of course with a call to the hotline to come pick up the body.)

I forget what it is in Chicago - but I think it's only like 20% of the murders get solved. Of course there - both gangs may know who the killer is but deal with things on their own rather than getting the cops involved.

So the lawsuits against American pharmaceutical companies are for what purpose?

Wasn’t fentanyl responsible for the deaths of Michael Jackson, Prince and Tom Petty? This stuff is bad news.

We need a wall.

Given that they found it in a vehicle I'd guess the plan was to drive it through some port of entry.

Of all the reasons for a wall stopping drugs isn't one of them.
