For a half century, our leaders committed this country to a war on drugs. Drugs won, though the war against them filled prisons, clogged courthouses, destroyed families and militarized police. Now wailing against fentanyl, a new charlatan will collapse the global economy.
We are morons forever.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
I think it was LBJ who declared a war on poverty, Nixon did the war on drugs, and Little Bush who declared the war on terrorism. I believe we are seeing a trend here.
ReplyDeleteThese so called wars , should be declared on those denying citizens from that which they freely choose to do.
ReplyDeleteThe war on opioids has driven the suicide rate way up for veterans. The VA is prohibited from prescribing pain medication badly needed....soooo many are just opting out instead of enduring the ongoing pain.
I have absolutely no empathy toward those, that use drugs for fun !
Legalize them all and let those losers overdose and fucking die... good riddance. I'd rather they all kill themselves , than have even one veteran commit suicide because they can't get pain relief !
I know people with chronic pain. To get any shred of relief, they have to go to a "pain management specialist" where they are treated as though they were drug abusers.
DeleteThose who aggressively marketed opiods and got us into this mess? May they burn in Hell.
Pigpen51, history records that it was Richard Nixon who began the campaign known as the War on Drugs. I don’t know if your lack of history is due to ignorance or an inability to find fault with Republicans without bashing Democrats first.
ReplyDeleteYou might go back and read my post again. But I know that history because I lived it.
DeleteThe so called wars are an outgrowth of prohibition. More people died from that than the alcohol and it made crime pay better.
ReplyDeleteIts all stupid. Addiction is not a criminal act, its a disease.
The profiteers... they need to experience unrelenting pain.
Eck!
It's a poison, we all know it; but it's legal. Not that that ever meant much to me but I was always a beer and weed guy, the occasional hit of acid. You know, Mr Natural. Truth be told I've always seen it as some kind of conspiracy to keep the population dumb. Like religion
ReplyDeleteTried to look in here earlier today and got a 404 ...
I can understand restrictions on opiates due to some getting addicted. I for one have intermittent back pain due to a spinal infection of twenty plus years ago. At one time i could get a scrip for 90 and it would last me a year. Now it's 21. I cut them them into quarters and hold off as long as i can. Topicals cause extreme skin irritation and NSAIDs have been very hard on my stomach and not too effective. THC sends me off to Weird World. My new young doctor is hesitant to even write what he does.
