There have been numerous articles. Law enforcement has spoken openly about it. It is mainly a white problem - not black, Hispanic or any of the various imports we have walking around. It is being pushed upon white middle class suburban kids. Do you have any idea how many 16, 17 18 year olds this is being sold to? Who were never told the dangers of heroin addiction. Their parents work hard to supply their children with good home, schools, etc. These are not loser kids. These kids have gotten good grades and had plans for college.
Nothing funny about that.

And the real reason AA and offshoots into every area of addiction isnt gangbusters today?
IT LEFT ITS FIRST LOVE.
Couldn’t agree with you more. But unfortunately it’s our culture. Fewer are raised with religion, fewer attend church. Sad.
Black tar heroin arrives in the US by the bushel from Mexico.
I agree with you except for point 3.
Heroin is ravishing EVERY community that it touches. Rich or poor, black or white or red or yellow.
Hey - it’s Spooge and his wife.
