Safer than going after tweakers guarding a real lab, and the stats look just as impressive.

Obviously a menace to society. I feel safer knowing law enforcement is running stings on such demons.

McFalls eventually consented to sell Morris another five bottles if he went out to his car for a few minutes then re-entered the store, the narcotics officer said.

This doesn't sound like he was hard of hearing.

It's a lot safer than taking on a real drug lord. Also it's apparently a lot easier to get a conviction.

We don't know for sure how hard-of-hearing this 70 year old was, but if he's like most people his age, in a store environment, etc., he probably thought "it's kind of hard to make meth with only 5 bottles" was instead "it's kind of hard to play medic with only ..."

After all, cold and flu season is starting, and some rural Oklahoma households have several children and can only make shopping runs once a week or so, so buying more than five bottles of cough syrup at one time would not be very unusual.
