Thanks Bush! But seriously you think the DEA and CIA wants drugs to be legal? Naw brah, that will cut into their black market profits too much brah.

Plus a lot of the problems is the medical field over prescribing, but again that cuts into peoples profits so we can't have that. Not just the good pills either, but if you go to the Dr and your in good health, how many pills will the Dr try to give you to sample and stuff? I don't go to the Dr hardly ever, but when I did they always try to give me some pills.

I knew a guy who wasn't even 21 yet and the Drs were loading him up with Xanax and he was supposed to take a whole bar at a time. Dude has a big drug problem now and many others happen just like this.

With Ascension and Livingston parishes being major suppliers of meth and heroin production and distribution, there will be a flood of new and stronger products.

Also the stress of the flood will push people to cope with drugs and alcohol.

It happened with Katrina.
Anyone think that will happen?


Let me guess...asking for a friend?

It has more to do with Purdue labs changing the Oxycontin forumlas (most importantly the 80mg green monsters) and making them so you cannot crush them to snort them or melt them down to IV them. That happened around 2008-2009ish. All of a sudden you could only find 30mg roxicodone to abuse that way and those street prices skyrocketed. Heroin is 2x cheaper than that and that's what happens.

When you shoot up in the same surroundings you subconsciously give a boost of your own adrenalin and others chemicals to counteract the heroin dose that is coming. Without these cues you don't do that and the same usual dose can OD you
