The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office announced a drug bust they say contained enough fentanyl to kill 1.5 million adults.

“JSO Narcotics Unit seized 3 kilos of fentanyl, 1.26 kilos of cocaine & over 6,000 counterfeit pills containing fentanyl; enough fentanyl to kill 1.5 MILLION adults,” the Sheriff’s Office said on Twitter Monday.

The announcement comes just days after police in Flagler County, Florida, which is just over 70 miles south of Jacksonville, announced the arrest of a fugitive with enough fentanyl to kill over 100,000 people, according to Fox 35.

Fox News Channel has been covering this issue for a while now. Most of these killer drugs are coming in our southern border by the Mexican drug cartels. The fentanyl originates from CHINA.

There's enough water in the pond behind my house to kill 1.5 million adults.

Someone should stand up on national tv, point to Biden, and yell, “Murderer!”

Maybe that would attract the voters’ attention.

Give them time. I think the Iranians prefer to use nucs, and probably will, unless they are stopped dead in their tracks.

It should be treated as weapons grade plutonium, not seed ridden ditch weed.

Any time I use a public restroom, I pull out about 3 feet of toilet paper and throw it the toilet and then pull out and use that which I feel could not have been “contaminated” by such things.

Trust no one.

I wonder, if a million were killed by some terror attack that poisoned a city with fentanyl would Joe Biden get 1/10000th the amount of criticism Trump gets or will it remain 1/billionth?

"enough fentanyl to kill 1.5 million adults"

Wow, that's almost as much as they found in George Floyd's bloodstream.

Thank God this happened in Florida and not New York, Los Angeles or Chicago, where the local DA would release it all back into the street within 4 hours.

How do they dispose of it is a good question. Also, what about all of the fentanyl that is not caught? Where does it go? Obviously, it goes to people who then overdose. We have many thousands of people dying from that. But there is enough fentanyl out there to kill tens of millions of people. It is not all being consumed. Is someone storing it in millions of stashes? Is some of it being dumped where it could seep into the water table? Does it degrade into something less harmful? Where is it and where is it going? Is it poisoning our environment?

‘Rainbow fentanyl’ looks like candy, and kids may be the intended targets

Thousands of the colorful pills were seized recently at a port along the U.S. border in what the DEA called an “alarming emerging trend.”
