Local leftist politicians are working hard to sink Austin lower than Chicago, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Portland, and New Orleans.

Weird... Almost like keeping the drug trade illegal leads to the Gods know what else they are pushing...

Maybe if we make illegal drugs illegal-er...

Or... Main stream it all and take away all the social safety nets. It’d be messy for a while, and there’d be a lot of bodies to bury... but we’ll be healthier in body and government once the dust settles.

Sounds similar to the suggestion that we raise the overall population IQ by removing all the warning labels and stupid instructions from appliances and tools, and let natural selection take its course.

The stuff should be considered a weapon of mass destruction.

It could seriously be used for mass murder depending on how it’s delivered or dispersed.

They should not be enforcing this through the DEA. It rises to the level of national security in my opinion.

I keep saying - Examples. We need more examples. I never broke my neck thanks to some nameless kid that broke his doing that.

Killing your customer’s has never been a very smart business idea... Unless you’re a mortician.

Who knows?

Maybe these dope dealers are opening up mortuary’s as a money laundering scheme.

Nitazenes.

Nitazenes are a class of highly potent synthetic opioids characterized by a 2-benzylbenzimidazole core structure. Originally synthesized in the 1950s as potential analgesics, they were never marketed due to their high toxicity and unfavorable therapeutic index. Since 2019, nitazenes have emerged on illicit drug markets, with over 20 analogues now identified globally. Structurally, nitazenes are unrelated to fentanyl or morphine, but many analogues exhibit μ-opioid receptor agonism with potencies that often exceed fentanyl, resulting in significant risk for severe opioid toxicity and fatal overdose at very low blood concentrations.[1-6]

Common nitazene analogues include isotonitazene, etonitazene, metonitazene, protonitazene, and butonitazene. These compounds are frequently detected in forensic and clinical toxicology settings, often in combination with other opioids or sedatives. Their pharmacological effects are typical of opioids: profound sedation, respiratory depression, and risk of cardiac arrest. Naloxone remains effective for reversal, but repeated dosing or prolonged infusions may be required due to the high potency and duration of action of some nitazenes.[2][7-8]

Nitazenes are metabolized primarily by CYP2D6, CYP2B6, and CYP2C8, with rapid hepatic clearance and production of active metabolites, which may contribute to toxicity and complicate detection.[8-9]
Standard opioid immunoassays do not reliably detect nitazenes; sensitive mass spectrometry-based methods are required for identification in biological samples.[8][10-11]
The increasing prevalence and high lethality of nitazenes represent a significant public health concern, necessitating enhanced surveillance, clinical awareness, and access to opioid antagonists.[1-2][6-7]

(OpenEvidence.com was asked, “What are nitazenes?”)

I'll bet you never poked your eye out either thanks to some nameless kid.

The Buckshot Bar on Dirty Sixth Street.

><

It sounds like a real Dive. Probably a good bar at one time.
