It will look for the easiest way. Regardless of the risk of that way.

If doctors and rehab centers focused on weaning people off of drug habits could do that, it would mitigate a lot of harm.

You don’t know much about addiction do you?

No, nothing at all.</sarc>

I agree to that. I would also agree with importing hyenas for. Africa and letting them lose on the street in the hood. Let them see how it feels.

No, the usual one; above average intelligence, that sort of thing.

It’s why I keep my rare conversations with you brief and composed of small words. I don’t want to strain your limited capacities

Drug trafficking should warrant the death penalty
like Singapore. Spare the life of the mules if they
roll over on the kingpins. Kill the kingpins
by overdose of what ever they were trading in.

“In 2014, more than 14,000 people died from overdoses involving prescription opioids.”

Most junkies are supplied by their doctor and their phamicist.

This number doubtlessly includes wink-wink assisted suicide.

But you’re right. It’s the usual one for you. Since you’re king over all reality, what else could apply? Golf clap.

What do you mean “today”?

Be thankful I don’t care enough about you to do this more often.

Have an evening.

“But Ed is ultimately responsible for his own actions, including buying and using something of unknown strength on the black market.”

Exactly.

People need to grow-up and take responsibility for their own actions.

Try again. I’m sorry you don’t like my opinion, but it sure doesn’t make you a psychic. Your assertion happens to be categorically false, so “fix” my statement as often as you like, but you’ll remain dead wrong...

Maybe, but that does not matter.

The doctor and phamicist will provide you with poison that is no different than what one can get from a street corner dealer.

Except in purity and standardization, of course.

I would love to see you try it as much as possible, because every single time I slam you on the ground even though you are too betweeted to notice it. But those who are watching, do!

Those of us who are feel sorry for those who should be.

“get what he wanted, in the desired strength, from a legal source.”

As if providing a legal source would fix everything. How about the users who buy it legal so they can sell it? If you are addicted to a drug, you will want as much of it as you can get...until you OD.

“If doctors and rehab centers focused on weaning people off of drug habits”

I think this is one end of the solution...the other is to make the penalty for selling too harsh to be worth the risk.

The problem is that the maximum money is had at a “moderate” level of opposition. Hard core dealers love police departments that are forfeiture-driven. The reason why? This is a tax to them. Taxes they can figure into business models.

Few in America really want to hang dealers any more unless they do something truly egregious like in this example. Americans have a stubborn libertarian streak.
