I am a 60 year retired government worker who carries a narcan kit to save opioid overdose victims. I am a former Boy Scout who believes in being prepared. When an addict needs help, I want to be able to offer it. And I also carry emergency equipment in case I happen on an auto accident. I don't want to watch any person die. Ask your local police force if they carry overdose kits. We all can help in stopping this wave of destruction.

Your post is a perfect example of why not everything in the comment section should be ignored. I am very surprised your simple message of arming the public en masse with overdose kits is not on the news. Are these kits expensive? Would the national emergency declaration have the power to lower the prices or increase availability?

"Not like that farm to table heroin youre used to.." annnd i died

Former addict here, and I think treating addicts as criminals simply does not work. Since the Portuguese decriminalized all drugs. Addiction has gone down. In the Netherlands, heroin addicts who simply cannot quit, can take their drugs, given by a doctor, in a safe place where nurses are available in case of an overdose. Since then, opioid related deaths have dropped dramatically. Opioids are terrible and should only be used for very ill people. But some people simply cannot quit, so let's treat them as sick rather than criminals.

@@nolives decriminalisation can be problematic. Here in the Netherlands weed was decriminalised in the 1970s. You can buy it legally in coffeeshops, but it is still illegal to own more than 5 marijuana plants, so the shops can't produce or buy their stock legally. So we have quite some organized crime around marijuana production. And because there is zero oversight on the production of weed, you don't really know what is in the pot you buy in the coffeeshop. They could have used heavy pesticides for all you know. Decriminalisation can only work if every single aspect is decriminalised. But if you want to be sure that the product is safe and of good quality, you need some level of oversight

I’d vote for Jim

Fantastic last statement.

That last line is perfect. Took almost 6 mins to get there but it's so worth it.

The drug involved in these many overdoses, actually, is Chinese carfentanil, not heroin. Since carfentanil has a similar effect as heroin, and since it is sold as heroin, police and news services often don’t make the distinction when telling stories. But the two are definitely different drugs, both legally and in effect. Carfentanil is much stronger per unit weight; thus, in order to make a carfentanil street-package equivalent to one of heroin, the carfentanil must be adulterated (cut). Considering the huge difference in potency, this cutting is a sophisticated procedure - often beyond the skills of your typical street drug dealer. If the cut is done improperly, one package could have 10 times the correct amount and another could have much less. That’s why people are dying. They don’t know in advance how much they are taking. If heroin were legal, everybody would be doing their proper dose. And that’s the solution, legalize heroin. The legalization of pot (Jefferies’s proposed solution) has nothing to do with it. We also notice Jefferies didn’t mention cocaine, his go-to drug. Can we have an opinion on that, Jim? Also, the introduction of a new sublingual form of Fentanyl also had nothing to do with the current upsurge of drug overdoses. That drug is barely available. And simply because it is so-many times more potent by weight doesn’t mean it is that much more potent by dose. Considering the drug is a pharmaceutical, it is properly labeled.

Damn. Jim is really good at this.

One of the rare times Jim is actually sober

Jim you make me smile....you make me frown....sometimes....but you are smart....and i buy into your thoughts!

This is a difficult subject. I personally have been on Fentanyl for about 8 years for chronic back pain. It causes all sorts of problems and I'm still in pain but without it, I have absolutely no doubt, I would no longer be here. For those who don't understand what it is like to be in constant pain, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I actually can hardly remember what it's like to not feel pain. Suicide is the bigger problem than drugs with chronic pain sufferers.

@jameshill2450

6 жыл бұрын

It's true that most heavy drug users started with weed, but that's not what caused them to try other stuff - they just did it first because it's the easiest thing to get (even easier than alcohol for a lot of teens). The majority of people who smoke will never try anything harder. That said, if weed is illegal where you are, then being a regular smoker forces you into places those harder drugs might show up. People don't typically go searching for a new drug, they try something their friend offered them; the real "gateway" is just becoming a part of that environment.

Retarded comparison. Fentanyl is literally 80 times as potent as morphine, but they've both been around for decades. So why the sudden increase in fentanyl use? Because when the feds decided to crack-down on oxy and hydro, people switched to the cheaper, highly available alternative: fentanyl. Prohibition is the cause of the problem, not the solution. Does that answer YOUR "dumb question?"

@cursed_multicel

6 жыл бұрын

Nobody would have a reason to go that far if they could take something safer and cheaper. Nobody wants to compromise their health, they just want to get high. People only die from fentanyl when drug dealers "cut" their heroin with it because it's cheaper and available. If drugs were legal, taxed, and regulated, legitimate retailers would be subject to labelling laws and putrity/quality standards that could easily prevent drug overdose. When you make them illegal, all you do is force the market into the shadows where there can be no FDA oversight. Think about the harm that you contribute to by promoting prohibition. Also, It's none of your business what grown adults put in their body; genitalia, drugs, piercings or otherwise.
