Central Florida Police Will Test Your Meth For Coronavirus (Free!)
WESH ^

Posted on 03/03/2020 4:35:35 PM PST by nickcarraway

The Tavares Police Department is asking people to bring their methamphetamine to the department to have it tested for the coronavirus.

“With the rising health concerns associated with the Corona virus we are offering free testing of your drugs. Being that a large amount of narcotics come from outside the US, we want you safe. Bring it by our station and we will test your batch within minutes,” a post on the department’s Facebook page.

It's the department's attempt to get meth off the streets in Central Florida, but with a funny twist.

The post was a hit on the department’s page, garnering hundreds of comments, shares and reactions.

No word on if anyone has showed up for a test.

I hope as many recreational pharma users participate in this vital outreach program. It’s important to stop as many disease vectors as possible. I applaud this proactive public health initiative.

Being that many prescription meds and ingredients for meds come from China, legitimate prescriptions need to be checked. too.

What was the movie where people were urged to show up to take a chance on a raffle or something and arrests were made of wanted felons? Memory failing me....

Reminds me of something I used to do when skip tracing.

"Is John Smith there?"

"No."

"Well could you give him a message for me? This is Amy from (local appliance store) and he has won second place in our raffle. The 19" color TV. Could you have him come and pick it up tomorrow between the hours of five and six in the evening? If he doesn't come and get it I will have to award it to the next person. Okay, Thanks." :hang up:

"Hey, boss? John Smith will be at (local appliance store) tomorrow between five and six."

Worked about 90% of the time. Almost 100% if they were wanted for drugs.

If I mail it to them, will I have to pay for return postage or will it pay it for me? And how fast will they get it back to me?
