      Yes, the one that sold the drug that killed this ppl. If you are implying that law enforcement didn’t do enough, allow me to tell you that it is almost impossible bc of the depth and complexity this type of business posses. No way to take them all. You take as much as you can without disturbing the research done by law enforcement. Plus, you can only arrest when you have enough to convict bc if not, you are wasting prosecutor’s time and resources. A law enforcement agent need to know the depth so that they can act accordingly... so no, they can’t take all drug dealers and ppl involved (even if they want, they can’t) or your IR will reach a dead end.

    I’m a recovering addict of heroin/ fentanyl. The sad reality is that an addict will do whatever it takes to get their drug of choice. Whether it’s going to a corner in the neighborhood, getting it brought to them by a dealer, or going online and getting it sent to their house.. we can fight and fight and fight and pass laws and make restrictions but we have to start with the addict. Get them help right away. Get them rehabilitated as soon as possible. Addict need as much support as they can get from family friends and even peoples they wouldn’t expect to help them. Please, I beg you, if you know an addict PLEASE understand they have a disease and that the stealing, lying, and everything else that comes along with it is their disease. An addict’s v addiction comes first no matter what. Please stop the stigma and help your loved on be the person they were when they weren’t sick. Everyone deserves help, and everyone deserves chances. Help save a life, it doesn’t take as much time and energy as you think. Please. And god bless every single addict and family member who’s lost someone they love. We can all make this world a better place if we open our hearts up and see what the real problems are.Thank you all.

      Yup, now instead of users and distributors buying the product straight from China, now that DC forced China to “crackdown”, the Chinese factories now just produce all of the precursors, instead of the final product itself, straight to cartels in Mexico, ready for quick manufacture. This has, along with other factors, helped to dramatically increase the levels of cartel violence, so now in addition to an overdose epidemic, we also have a rapidly evolving threat to national security. I’m no libertarian, but this seems like the sort of problem those guys love to point out where the government only seems to be able to make things worse (and don’t forget that it was the federal crackdown on prescribers that caused swarms of people to turn to street opioids in the first place). I guess to look on the bright side, the pandemic forced them to lower the barriers to entry for medication assisted treatment and certain harm reduction programs, which is at least a small step in the right direction.

      @@firefightergoggie If prohibition ended, people wouldn't need to use fentanyl. They could use safer things like opium, methadone, buprenorphine, oxycodone, kratom, or even heroin. And those drugs could be sold in measurable doses from reputable sources, most likely reducing overdoses to a fraction of what they are today. Nobody does fentanyl because they WANT to. They do it because the DEA has outlawed every other more preferable (and safer) substance. Look up the "iron law of prohibition". It says that as prohibition increases, drugs just get smaller, easier to transport, more potent, and therefore more dangerous. The drug war had it's run and it obviously failed. You said it yourself, 47k people dies last year alone. Time to try something new that science actually supports.

All the pain was gone, just totally gone, in about 15 minutes. The oxy was the painkiller for after the subsequent op to remove the gall bladder. I knew when I took the first one how addictive it was. If you have never had it, I can tell you it feels fantastic. I can see why people seek it out. I never sought it out afterwards though, I just finished the prescribed course and never took it again. I often wonder why I didn't get addicted when so many do. What tips the scale?

    My ex died partially due to drugs, however; I worry that good things that come from China will be blocked because they want to prevent very bad things like fentanyl. Herbalists have trouble getting 'Ma huang' (herb that ephederine is made from) out of worry that methamphetamine will be made. Clean steroids aren't legal in the US, so people were getting clean steroids from China; now they're lucky if they can get real steroids made in a lab and not an unclean substance or one that doesn't contain the amount of the steroid they ordered. Psychedelics have great psychological and spiritual benefits, but these have been illegal in the US for decades and it's hard to get them from China (Obama banned psychedelic 'research chemicals' "thanks Obama" sarcasm.) I praise DC for decriminalizing mushrooms and Oregon for decriminalizing everything, though I do think that those on opioids should spend 1 week in jail and be offered 90 days in rehab (that the addict pays for by working in customer service for a variety of products while in rehab.)

    Cool - it's also a fact that the US could have regulated big pharma and the Sackler fam who was pushing opioids long before China even became involved... We always get interested once the "other" comes along and capitalizes, but when our own do it, we conveniently look the other way...

    Shut down all mail service from China until this stops or we can control it, or both. I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure if all commerce with the US by mail were stopped, China might take a more active interest in this problem.

    This isn't surprising. China always had involvement considering how they lost opium war with Britain and now using same tactics against America.

    That's why you should test it first by snorting a tiny bit but people want their fix immediately.

      @@janestill2588 Getting a prescription from a dr is almost impossible. Finding them elsewhere is possible but a lot of counterfeit out there too that's basically illicit fentynal. Drs are not prescribing due to dea & medical boards. Even the dying & cancer pts are being denied. To be rid of a pt all a dr has to do is say your UA came up positive for illicit drugs or thc. Then there's the pharmacy. You still have to get them to dispense. Now Kolodney at CDC was peddling the suboxone long before he got into CDC. He tried to get FDA to put a 90mme on prescription opiods but was refused which is why he looked up his buddy at CDC. The money is in bupe & suboxone now as the 2016 GL has gotten very few drs to prescribe opiods other than suboxone or buprenorphine. They are now the money makers.

      Febuary 2021 In Lals Vegas, Nevada the Review Journal reported 50,000 counterfit Roxicodone tablets stamped with 30mg were found laced with fentanyl. This is an absolute disaster. For every 50000 counterfit tablets seized there is probably one million more hitting the streets.
