Somebody needs to start taking a closer look at cement shipments coming from Mexico.
Think of all the people who aren’t committing all that crime anymore that’s needed to support a habit.
Most of this stuff comes from other countries. Border issue again!
Any lack of personal responsibility is at the core. I have no sympathy for the drug addicts, alcoholics, and the degenerates in general.
Ho Humm, you are what you put in your body.
Here in Pennsylvania The Governor, Wolf blames the Pharmaceutical Industry and makes the idea that everybody has a disease! Never looking at the problem that they keep on releasing the so-called non-violent felons (drug dealers) out early to lower the population!
Most don’t care, to their own hurt, but once they step into the drug scene, even once, they’ve stepped into the loop that will in the end take everything form them including their life.
Dealers entire goal is to initiate users to the next high and is often without the users awareness. Then they own them.
Also, what you put in your body sometimes reflects who you were beforehand.
Oh goody. Tomorrow I will wake up as a cup of Ritas frozen custard!
Pay your money and take your chances. Street life is tough for those who choose to be there.
But that they end up costing us all money.
The drug looks like concrete mix...
Comes with a built-in tombstone.
It was dangerous in the 70s when I was in HS; heroin was everywhere. This stuff is much, much worse and kills quickly. I read somewhere, comments by a young EMT who explained that even with Narcan on every rig in the county, they can't get to the victims fast enough to save them. An OD on something containing fentanyl kills in seconds, not minutes.
I've got a 14 y/o boy going into HS next year and reading this stuff scares me to tears.
The Gray Death is also the name of a genetically engineered disease in the game Deus Ex.
How nice for you that you have never had your life devastated by substance abuse. If you can’t have sympathy for the addict maybe you could have some feeling for the heartache and chaos it causes those who love them and the cost to all of us as a society
Not after they overdose.
I’ve noticed something weird in the local obits lately: 30, 40, and 50 somethings are dropping like flies and dying “unexpectedly” at home. Wondering if that’s a euphemism for ODing. If so, holy cats....
