So you're saying the Mexican cartels are into fentanyl manufacturing as well as heroin?

Isn't fentanyl an opiod while heroin is an opiate? That would require some labs. I mean idk anything about opiod manufacturing, but it has to be wayyyy more complicated than heroin manufacturing.

No. Drug use and overdoses cut across SES.

The Chinese manufacture it and ship it to Mexico, where the cartels can obtain it and then smuggle it into the U.S. alongside their other narcotics.

You're not wrong about that. We need more drugs that can save overdose victims.

So the majority of the drug related deaths also happen to be the same race as the majority of the drug related criminals. Go figure

There are drugs that can save people overdosing. Narcan will bring someone that is blue in the face and not breathing to being fully coherent and talking in less than a minute. I know addicts that have literally tried to fight EMS for ruining their high while over dosing

I know very well the feeling of trying to rush back and edit a post, only to not be quick enough.

Dealers are cutting the heroin with fentanyl. Combining these two substances is a recipe for an overdose. They just don't care.

Which is so stupid on their part. They are losing customers. Rather than making a bigger profit on a diluted sale they should be thinking volume sales.

You know, if they're injecting themselves willingly, and I don't come across as many junkies when I'm out and about, is this really that bad?

The only good thing about this is that maybe organ wait list shortens. We have a major crisis going on right now and it is in every community.
