  1. legalize/reschedule oxycodone, fentanyl, diladud and heroin. supervised injection rooms for them, access to narcan
    In Switzerland they started giving people addicted to opiates
    Heroin.Its been going for 3 years
    they dont have any OD's crime is back to

  2. Well you're about dumb they take away meds from people who need them then they can't work. Which goes along with the chart and other studies that when you take away the meds you commit suicide or go to the streets. It goes to heroin because the DEA supplies the streets for heroin . You are such an idiot! Most people see that it is a genocide. This started with distributors getting greedy and put the pills on the black market.

  3. I hope this continues. Just think of it, one whole white generation lost
    to opioids. It will lower their birth rates even lower than they
    already are. It will speed up their eradication and help make the world a
    better place to live.

  4. IT'S CHINESE FENTANYL THAT'S THE PROBLEM!
    Illegal Alien Sentenced to Six Years for Having Enough Fentanyl to Kill Half a Million Americans

    An illegal alien has been sentenced to a little more than six years in prison for planning to distribute enough fentanyl to kill half a million Americans, federal officials confirm.

    Pablo Vega-Ontanon, a 53-year-old illegal alien from Mexico, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Sul Ozerden to 74 months in federal prison and five years of supervised release for possessing enough fentanyl to kill 500,000 Americans with an intent to distribute the drugs.

    Vega-Ontanon, who had been living in Georgia, traveled to Gulfport, Mississippi on November 6, 2018, with Eder Ortega-Casarrubias and Eric Estudillo-Carrazco to sell heroin they said was hidden in a compartment of their vehicle to a confidential informant.

    After federal officials arrested the illegal alien and his two accomplices, investigators discovered that the trio had possession of 9kg of heroin and 1kg of fentanyl — enough drugs to kill 500,000 Americans, nearly the entire population of Wyoming.

    In June 2019, Ortega-Cassarubias was sentenced to 10.5 years in prison followed by five years of supervised release, while Estudillo-Carrazco pleaded guilty last month and faces a maximum life sentence and a $10 million fine.

    Every year, nearly 70,000 to 76,000 Americans die from drug overdoses. A report released by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) revealed this year that young white American men are the most vulnerable to the national opioid crisis, dying at a higher rate than any other demographic group.

  5. I think everyone is missing the boat when they believe and teach that opioid dependence starts with pills. It ruins the chance for people with genuine need for pain control to be treated properly. An addict cannot afford to buy enough pills to meet the needs of their addiction. Heroine is a fair amount cheaper. Addicts will take pills, but they don’t live on them. Tolerance kicks in pretty quickly. The “over prescribing “ might be the result of the natural aging of the population. People are dying due to the mixing with fentanyl .

  6. You're only contributing to the loathsome war on drugs (which is a war on the poor and on minorities) and have no interest in disseminating facts such as that fewer than 1% of all opioid deaths are due to legitimate pain prescriptions being misused or abused; and even that low figure exists among a vulnerable, ill, and elderly population. Your ilk only makes it that much harder for the million Americans in chronic, severe, and disabling pain, Americans who are typically elderly, disabled, or veterans, to receive much needed pain medications.

    It's not an opioid epidemic, it's opioid hysteria. That you'd lump in oxycodone with heroin is prime evidence of that. NYTimes journalist Chris Hedges writes of a veteran who fell victim to opioid hysteria of the kind you help foment: https://www.truthdig.com/articles/the-last-days-of-tomas-young/

  7. The biggest shipment of fentanyl (border patrol bust) came through Mexico in April of this year and it was over 16,000 kg which is enough to kill every person in the United States if put into the water system

  8. The Damage done
    I seen the drug war and the damage done
    On our young daughters and poor sons
    It seems Emancipation not for all , not all
    The damage done

    I saw them no-knocking on a cellar door
    SWAT locked and loaded ready for war
    Killing our children become a daily chore ,
    Please no more , The Damage done

    I hit the city and I lost my band
    I saw the drug war take another man
    Gone , all gone the damage done

    This drug war really been a hell for all
    Brought in OxyContin and that Fentynal
    The working class has had a great big fall , for all
    Ooh , oh the damage done

    That drugs are bad for you is probably true
    Without them they'll use another ruse to come for you
    We all suffer for the privileged few
    Ooh , ooh . Ooh !

    I sing this story because I loved this man
    I know that some of you wont understand
    That People of color have a right to live and prosper too
    In this land
    I've seen the drug war and the damage done , a little part of it in everyone
    And every injustice is like a setting sun
    Nihilist Young
