You know what? I used to live in Huntington, West Virginia.

I’m done blaming the user and want to go after the sellers big time.

We need way more drug busts and when we find these guys, up to the top, give them the death penalty and this story is why.

We haven't even started "blaming the victim" enough.

Very, very few cases of addiction involve drug users who are victims of anything other than their own stupidity and/or outlook on life. All the rehab facilities in the world aren't going to fix a person who has nine kids and a heroin habit at the age of 31, but somehow finds it in herself to maintain a Facebook page and pierce her face like a pincushion.

The only role for government in this situation is to protect our borders and prosecute crimes. If that includes tossing drug traffickers into wood chippers or setting them on fire on national TV, then fine. Anything else is a waste of time and energy.

There's no way anyone can "Make America Great Again" unless we are first -- individually -- willing to make ourselves better. No company in its right mind is going to build a new manufacturing facility in a place where most of the prospective employees are unemployable.
