1) Communist China has deliberately injected fentanyl and other narcotics into the United States as an act of sabotage to undermine, kill and cause law enforcement to expend time and money in fighting the crimes connected to drug dealing.
2) Why aren’t our people doing things like that to the Chinese? We’re good little boys and girls? We’re better than that? Our religious affiliations and church attendance have gone drastically down, so what is the alleged “moral problem?”
Just musing.
More war on drugs BS.
As universal health care is to the Dems, so is this war on drugs BS to Republicans.
They all like to tell us all they did by spending the tax payers money, just where they waste it changes.
You probably forgot opium wars. Were any reparations ever paid?
The focus is always on the failed policy of persuading/assisting other countries in stopping the export of drugs to the United States rather than on the alternative of securing the border and preventing the import into the United States.
Good catch. A moment in history.
Astor, Forbes, and FDR’s granddad earned their fortunes by putting China on heroin.
Much ado about nothing. FR’s LiberTARDian trash tell us all is well.
Love it but once again it’s about long ago times.
Thanks for the information, though.
It was from the first half of US history, but the last 10% of Chinese history.
Thanks. Hadn’t heard of it but it is my kind of book.
Looked up synopsis in Goodreads. US vs. Communists in biolgical warfare oneupsmanship.
As a kid in junior high I did one class presentation about upcoming nuclear war possibilities with poster board illustrations and charts and detailed descriptions of the destruction of human life.
Also did a book report on Level 7 by Mordecai Roshwald (7th underground level as Americans unleased nuclear war, making re-emergence to the surface impossible.
And I used to like the movies with “no one left alive on Earth.” Used to imagine the places I went if no people wre there. Obviously I would want medical and pharmaceutical help. Radio right winger Earl Nightingale said we need people ahead of us in the places we travel so they built roads, grew and harvested foods and were ready to serve our many needs when we arrived there. Condescending and terrific, I thought.
One I remember was The World, the Flesh and the Devil with Harry Belafonte in “a post-apocalyptic world with very few human survivors.”
I clearly remember the funny unintentional film error in which the supposedly empty NYC had a bridge in the distance
with the usual daily traffic jam on it moving along. Funny. Today they would blur it out or cgi the bridge as empty.
And was sad Burgess Meredith’s character broke his only glasses on the Twilight Zone and couldn’t enjoy his reading time now that the annoying human race was gone.
Probably set me up to be the poster I am today. Fighting misanthropy. Tip: people are much worse today than they were in the 1950s and 60s.
Did you ever watch 28 days later? it had a great bridge scene.
not much CGI, instead a plot on a budget of about £5 million
Execute drug dealers. Promptly. Publicly.
Thanks. Never heard of it.
It cost little as you said but “grossed more than $82.7 million worldwide” before becoming popular again due to Covid.
I’m becoming more and more educated today (three people told me of “almost no one left alive on Earth” tales.)
Plot of 28 Days with people everywhere going into anger and rages against others after a pandemic is unbelievable, of course.😁
Except for real life since 2020.
Thank you. Thoughtful deed.
Some from India finds its way here too
Problem aside from obvious is IQ level of retailers
Cartels have taken to dyeing it pink so users if paying attention see the cut in whatever retailers and pill pressers put it in
Say what you will but the guys running Sinaloa like Zambada ain’t dumb nor is Mecho at New Gen
At some point, the Sinaloa Cartel will realize a great way to invest their drug profits is by buying up American real estate in Demonrat-run shitholes, then running the Demonrats out. The potential profits of that strategy would far exceed anything that could be made in any stock market.
Like guns, drugs are inanimate objects. You can't blame recreational drugs for doing what they are designed to do.
I’m very libertarian except when it comes to national defense.
Give people all the drugs they want. I survived that.
The ones that don’t would have voted for Democrats. No loss to lose Democrats.
There is this thing called “natural selection”.
Before you “Flame”, me I lost a very dear cousin to the Seattle Heroin addict life style. I busted my butt helping her. But the lifestyle caught up to her.
