Seems to be a self correcting problem.

I look at that graphic, “Percentage of fentanyl deaths by race,” and think, in a PC manner, “What can be done to more equitably increase the Asian deaths?”

Why??? Because it would mean admitting the failures of the uber liberal government. Both at running a clean city, and clean state, and failure to secure the Southern Border.

Asian families are more close-knit. It’s whites and blacks that are tearing us apart. The biggest reason? Asians aren’t preoccupied with sex all the time. Might be they got little ones.

Absolutely! Set up free fentanyl sites for the druggies!
Within a month the druggie problem will be solved.

What to do with the bodies? Fed the Great Whites!

A good long-time friend of mine is a recovering opioid addict who spent several years living on the streets of SF. She put her family and friends through years of searching for her in bad areas with bad people, visiting her in jail and dreading the possibility that she’d turn up dead. She’s been clean for several years and is doing well now, but I still dread the possibility of her ever visiting anyone up in SF. The self-proclaimed “progressives” have made SF an amusement park for drug dealers and a hell-on-earth for opioid addicts.

"Fentanyl has been killing far more people in San Francisco than COVID. It's not even close, really. In San Francisco, roughly 1,310 people died from drug overdoses in 2020 and 2021. That's more than double the roughly 710 people who have died from the virus in the city since the start of the pandemic."

I had no idea the fentanyl problem was this bad. Are these San Francisco numbers an outlier or is this playing out nationwide?

Tenderloine. I have worked with the Franciscan soup kitchen there in the past. The name “Tenderloine” stuck the the neighborhood when local gangsters in the 1920’s Prohibition days would pay off the police with steaks. Today the neighborhood has cheap apartments full of cockroaches, Mongolian restaurants and yes, tons of pathetic, disgusting homeless. The leaders in SF and CA have been emptied by the seven deadly sins, such as sloth, pride (Hey! I’m a leader in SF!!), gluttony, and avarice (the high rents in SF give the city tons of money from property taxes). Thankfully, the Lord is watching and taking notes. SF leaders are pathetic.

Nobody put a gun to these addicts’ head, say the Chinese CCP manufacturers and the “importers” and the bribed officials in all levels of gov’t that don’t truly try to stop it. This is why abortion is legal and gay marriage...let the lessers kill themselves off to a more manageable level. God does not wish such suffering on His beautiful specific individual creations, not a single one. Each eas created “Wheat”, not weed.

Our only recourse, citizen and addict alike, is complete surrender of ourselves and of control of this whole mess to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Jesus, I trust in You. Jesus, I trust you. Help us.

I know you're probably saying this tongue in cheek but its actually true that some groups are not sex preoccupied....and they achieve a lot more stability and success....

the sex obsession pushed by media has destroyed so many men and women....

things were better when marriage was pushed before sex...

Been saying that for almost 50 years; set up GOVERNMENT DRUG STORES, sell anything and everything DIRT CHEAP, provide free devices for use and consumption, make sure every product is 100% pure (if they want to cut it, they can buy their own milk sugar), provide a safe comfortable place to shoot up, collect all the corpses in the morning with garbage trucks.

IN 2 YEARS YOU WON’T HAVE ANY MORE ADDICTS !

PROBLEM SOLVED.

I’ve said for decades to legalized it all... The dumb@$$es will quickly OD and the rest of rational society will move on without them. Good riddance.

I’ve never understood the liberal coddling of addicts and criminals... they don’t vote in appreciable numbers.
