We are still enslave as black people it's sad we tear down each other Lord help us.The love of many shall wax cold the bible is being fulfilled ever day
Obviously never getting started with drugs is the best route to take. That being said you'd probably be better off just using regular codeine instead of the damn syrup.
There is corruption in too many counties. Once you follow the money you find the poison that persist in each area. It's a reality for us all. Just because a devil puts on a suit doesn't make him anything else but a well dressed devil.
makes no sense! codeine has no effect in itself but the liver produces an enzyme that converts it to morphine at about 10% efficiency but only produces enough to convert a max of about 300mg into about 30mg of morphia. Why don't they just use opium or morphine? poppies will grow there and processing the opium into morphine is childs' play! Such morons in africa.
BBC is a bad channel to the extend and the most corrupt channel ever see in the world… even though this thing is real, they Always show up the BAD side of African in particular they Never show the GOOD side of Africa in every Documentary shame on you BBC fake channel Enemies of African go to Europe and Asian it still the same try to do justice to All and show even the GOOD sides sometimes
Fucking idiots using it in public at the bar, y’all need to be beating the piss out of anybody you see doing this stuff. 57 of my friends died from addiction last year alone in Baltimore city Usa fifty fucking seven. And I am struggling everyday to stay clean. The doctor in this video is so right, I weep for their nation as well, because they truly don’t know what addiction is going to lead to… when it takes every friend you’ve ever had and leaves you completely alone you will regret ever touching it. I wish I would’ve never made it this far to see the effects, I’d trade myself for anyone I’ve lost in a heartbeat
