Breitbart ^ | 01/22/2024 | Paul Bois

Posted on 01/22/2024 6:15:57 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Rick Harrison, one of the chief talents on Pawn Stars, revealed that his 39-year-old son, Adam, died from a fentanyl overdose that he blames on the border crisis.

Rick confirmed Adam died of a fentanyl overdose in a statement to Fox News.

“Yes, I can confirm Adam died from a fentanyl overdose,” Rick said. “The fentanyl crisis in this country must be taken more seriously. It seems it is just flowing over the borders and nothing is being done about it. We must do better.”

Soon the WEF will insist that our food be laced with fentanyl.

I guess a lot of people are too stupid to just say no to drugs. It’s not like they’re a novelty in this country.

I do think drugs coming over our border is a genuine issue. But nobody is putting a gun to people’s heads and forcing them to take the drugs. Addiction is a symptom, not the disease.

You are on a big big construction site unloading a truckload of concrete blocks and two 50 dollar bills come blowing acrossed a gravel parking lot and acrossed your boots.

Do you pick them up ? Does the thought cross your mind that they might be drug money tainted with enough fentanyl on them to kill you ?

Trust your instincts ?

This happened to me last summer.

Never knew that. All I knew about was Corey. But them again I just used to watch the show, & I was never interested enough to learn more about them personally. 😋

Crisis doesn’t quite say it.

Everytime we engage in drugs even weed or do porn and support that evil business or we gamble incessantly we are supporting all of this evil.

You can thank the Supreme Court. We have four female Justices who voted with John Roberts to support the Feds over Texas on the border.

The Constitution is clear: Section IV Article 4 says the federal government “shall protect each of [the states] against Invasion.

Prayers to Rick’s family. When I heard that his son died, I thought it was Corey.

You’ve never dealt directly with addiction, have you?

Since the killing dose for an adult person is the size of the head of a straight pin-— HOW could this be an “overdose”?

IOW it was an INTENTIONAL dose of a deadly likely illegally imported chemical agent. Anaesthesiologists can speak of the dosing of fentanyl for use in major surgery— and how dicey this can be.

This dude, getting high, killed himself.

Actually I have. And one of the cornerstones of treatment was owning up to your mistakes. The ones that did best were the ones that took ownership of their part in the addiction. Drugs are a symptom of a greater illness in our society. People are using drugs yo fill holes in their lives. But they just make new and worse holes.

Additionally, people haven’t dealt with chronic debilitating pain that doctors refuse to treat. No excuse but it is life in a fallen world.

Personal responsibility. Evil has been given control. Only you can save you....with God. Otherwise, you are the baby gazelle being toyed with by the lion, and finally, munched.
God, have mercy on his soul.
