the Post Office doesn’t have the resources to check every tiny package, so those under ~1 oz. usually go uninspected

for a powerful drug like fentanyl or carfentanyl, that’s plenty of leeway for drug + container + packaging

Carfentanil is one of the drugs used for darting big animals, like elephants.

So if you ever wondered what you can fit into something as small as a dart but that will knock out a 12,000-lb pachyderm, ... now you know.

Thanks for posting. My youngest daughter is convinced pot cures and complete prevents cancer. I guess dying from “additives” like this would certainly decrease the chances anyone would get cancer.

From your link....China has an arrangement with the post office!?? I can’t be reading that right.

I think that has to be just bad wording by the writer. Sounds like they're just taking advantage of the reality that the USPS doesn't require tracking data from the sender like Fed Ex and UPS do, etc. Sounds like the USPS needs to amend it's policies on things mailed from China.

"He says the illicit sellers in China avoid private carriers like FedEx or UPS because they require tracking information from the sender. "With the U.S. mail system, that's not required. So China has an arrangement with the U.S. mail system where they send it through without that information," Portman said.

I remember having the marijuana talk with my kids. I got the old “it’s a natural herb” bs thrown at me. I replied that so was hemlock but it didn’t work out so well for Socrates. Two of them kept away from it, the third went whole hog. Oh well.

My youngest daughter was shot twice in a drug deal, lived…. After coding 4 times. Carries 2 rounds they cannot remove.
Still thinks it’s a lot better to smoke n drive than drink and drive.
My good friend said… she hasn’t reached bottom. Dunno…. Can’t lead a horse to water. The oldest does them occasionally… but he is also n the Netherlands.
What can you say to someone about the dangers and the enslavement drugs bring.
I still keep close, thinking they may grow out of it…
Thanks for sharing. It’s a crazy world when heroin is back in style.

And anyone caught with it should be force fed a teaspoon of it.

One speck the size of one grain of salt can kill a grizzly bear

How do you get the bear to take it?

<<the cartels are making a lot of money on fentanyl and our leadership seems okay with the overdose rate given their inaction on the subject.<<

Leadership is OK with making money on bait-drugs.
