I suggest going warning-->probation-->banned from posting in the thread. This is my go-to thread for discussing current events because it usually doesn't devolve into slapfights. I'd be sad if that changed.

Maybe government distribution of clean heroin would actually reduce harm in a situation where we've unfucked our medical system and poverty problem, and the only people seeking out opioids are recreational users dedicated to the TCC lifestyle, but once we've moved those two boulders, we probably won't need free smack distribution nearly as badly to curb the problem.

Where do you think people with limited means and education are going to end up? People don't take opioids because they ran out of beer, they do it because something in their life is driving them to need a frighteningly strong narcotic painkiller. But you can't go to a treatment center unless you have a demonstrated physical addiction that cannot be broken through normal means. It's the same as methadone. It's not welfare for crackheads.

I think you've answered your own question dude, nobody who isn't desperate enough to do heroin already is going to go out and start doing it if it's suddenly cheap. And I don't think anyone is advocating giving an unlimited amount to anyone that asks, just as part of treatment programs.

What do you mean "if heroin is cheap"? Heroin is cheap as gently caress, especially compared to oxys. That's half the reason people move from pills to heroin, because a hit is $5~ (not 100% on actual, but it's cheap) versus shelling out $30-60 for one oxy. And when your doctor stops writing scripts the insurance company used to pay for, the choice is go broke quickly or go broke slowly while risking poo poo contaminated with fentanyl or carfentanil. Once that habit really has its hooks deep, it's not much of a choice.

I have no idea who shmorky is aside from only seeing his name periodically on the forums over the years, but if you're in a position of power here, dirty laundry must be a pre-requisite. Seems like the majority of mods that have gone down over the years are just progressively more hosed up than the last, except in here since the Lt Col Civvie dumbass grover was run out. N4i, vas, you guys have done good work. But maybe that should make me wonder what skeletons are in your closets. Just a bunch of possum and coon skeletons in mine. Maybe I should clean it.

Or prepare yourself to walk in one day on a naked crazy person covered in body paint and glitter that just wants to be a pony in the sky, and you find yourself calling the local psychiatric hospital while hoping for the best. Then again, lowtax isn't exactly known for his good decisions.

So just how much of the classified information of the country is Drumpenfuhrer able to give to pootie poot? At this point I refuse to believe anything but the idea that poot owns his rear end, probably in a literal dollars and cents sense, so how does the intelligence community react to that I wonder? Everything they give to him in any capacity is going to be handed to his handlers basically as soon as he gets it, so do they stage a silent coup and just stop giving him information while they wait for the next adminstration?

Melania cheats on him in a public fashion making him President Cuck. Criminal charges cause him to resign. He has a stroke and watches all his businesses collapse.

That's what makes me the most. The republicans want to wind back the clock to a mythical "Leave it to Beaver" hallucination. And the Democrats are too loving incompetent to stop them. Meanwhile, millions of Americans and others world wide will suffer and die of easily preventable poo poo because we can't be loving bothered to elect competent shitheads to public office anymore.

Reminder: It's literally a plot to bring back the Gilded Age. quote:On August 23, 1971, prior to accepting Nixon's nomination to the Supreme Court, Powell was commissioned by his neighbor, Eugene B. Sydnor Jr., a close friend and education director of the US Chamber of Commerce, to write a confidential memorandum titled "Attack on the American Free Enterprise System," an anti-Communist, anti-New Deal blueprint for conservative business interests to retake America for the chamber.[13][14] It was based in part on Powell's reaction to the work of activist Ralph Nader, whose 1965 exposé on General Motors, "Unsafe at Any Speed," put a focus on the auto industry putting profit ahead of safety, which triggered the American consumer movement. Powell saw it as an undermining of Americans' faith in enterprise and another step in the slippery slope of socialism. [...] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_F._Powell_Jr.#Powell_Memorandum This is what happens when people like the Koch Bros. can just saunter in and literally drop, what was it, $900,000,000 on the election? Two crazy assholes with a Crazy rear end in a top hat Agenda can afford to just spend more than Trump's campaign raised and almost as much as it took Clinton over a year to raise.
