Are you tired of hearing about the so-called "Opiod crisis?"

I think it's a joke considering there are far more dangerous drugs out there, e.g Fentanyl, crack cocaine, heroin, flakka, and the rest.

DEA just don't want to get their hands dirty busting meth labs, it's so much easier to bust the Doc's, people with real acute/chronic pain issues.

I would love to see their funding cut by at least half.

Thoughts?

I think all First Responders should be able to carry NARCAN. If it saves lives, why not ? I expressed this opinion in the presence of a friend’s neighbor who joked that when “some moron’s kid overdosed on opioids, it’s Darwinism at it’s finest.”
Recently my friend told me the neighbor’s teenage son od’d on some fentanyl laced pot. The EMT had NARCAN, and guess what ? Darwinism spared him. The neighbor has changed his opinion.
