Right symptom, wrong solution. We shouldn’t have to give evidence against ourselves to get perfectly legal over the counter drugs. It’s supposed to be a FREE society, that means bad guys get away, because we’re not all assumed to be criminals every time we step out of the house.
I’ve only flown internationally 6 times. I think 6 x 8 seconds = 48 seconds is not asking to much over a lifetime.
If you think Sudafed is a problem, try getting needed opioids. May wife had back surgery and could not tolerate the surgical pain with the drugs that had been prescribed for take home. So we contacted her surgeon and I had to make a trip to the hospital to get one of his compatriots ( who had to wait to sign the prescription for stronger medication before going into surgery himself). Then the battle began at the pharmacy. They told me that they would have to contact the doctor and would have to get back to me in the morning ( it was 10 p.m.). I told the pharmacist he had 30 minutes to fill the prescription then there would be a different kind of “contact” between the two of us. The problem is with all the Schedule A narcotics regulations. They aren’t laws, they are simply bureaucratic regulations promulgated by agencies that have nothing to do with patients who are seeking pain relief. It’s like everything government does today. Gun control that controls decent people, but doesn’t do anything about the real problem is a shining example of how a basic Constitutional Freedom is being trampled. Where “regulations” trump the law. And with drugs, it’s “on steroids.”
