He's just parroting something he heard...an empty scare "stat".
That's pretty ignorant of you if so.
Why would you downplay how dangerous this stuff is?
Someone could pump a half-pound of Fentanyl powder into the ventilation system of a packed stadium during a sporting event and kill everyone inside with ease.
But yeah, 23 tons of it, no big deal.

Agree but I do think there is some validity to the lack of access saving lives.
Exactly. That’s like stuffing your pantry full of cupcakes, twinkles, and cookies, but expecting your fat kid to start losing weight.
Ain’t gonna happen if it’s within reach.

in Oklahoma a judge is deciding if Johnson and Johnson can be held responsible for the opoid epidemic in Oklahoma. Fentanyl is an opioid. If Johnson and Johnson loses that ruling the trial lawyers will bust their arse.
Hopefully they don’t hold the company liable for consumers misusing a product.
This would create a dangerous precedent leading to gun manufacturers being held liable for shootings which would bankrupt them

1) loser pay--both sides should have to declare their expenses and post bonds to cover the other side's cost in order to get to court. (most cases will never get to court as the incentive will be huge to get them settled or drop them)
2) civil cases should be a decided by a panel of judges instead of juries. It is such a fraud to talk about a "jury of peers" when you have science cases and cancer cases. 12 people from the lines of WalMart can't decide those cases.
I don't totally disagree with you on this one thing .... except:
1 - big banks would love the whole bond thing.
2 - a jury of peers is far more appropriate than a panel of judges. Judges can be bought, and often are.

24 tons is a dump truck load.
Imagine someone getting ahold of just a couple tons and dumping it in water supply, or dropping it over a city from a crop duster plane

Why is there such a big American demand for fentanyl?
The demand is from dealers looking to extend profits by cutting this shite into their drugs, not so much from users.

Who gives a frick? Let people put whatever they want in their bodies. Not my job to save people from themselves.

Ok I take back what I said, didn't realize it was able to be used in that capacity.

Fentanyl is ridding us of more addicts than any rehab program ever will.

It’s telling that this is being reported by bretbart.com but nothing on any MSM sites like CNN or Yahoo.
And the media wonders why nobody trusts them any more.

Isnt that what they are mixing with cocaine? Something about it allows them to dilute the amount of cocaine down when mixed with it.
Heroin.
Users of heroin don't really like it, but it's so potent that dealers/suppliers cut the heroin with it to make more money. The end users test it if they're savvy, but most junkies are nowhere near that level of giving a shite.

Yeah, ok...hopefully more people will start worrying about this and event ticket prices will go down.
Or, you know what? They could rent out some crop dusters and just crop dust cities!
Or 3 hillbillies could buy a bunch of fertilizer, load it into a van and blow up a building!

26 Tons
500 micrograms is a lethal dose. 500mcg is 1/2mg.
There are ~453,000 mg/lb aka >900,000 lethal fentanyl doses/lb.
26 tons is enough fentanyl to kill 470 Billion people

If the AD wins that case, it will get appealed and the case will be heard by the USSC. It would open up energy, medical and vice companies to similar legal scrutiny and that is not good for those industries. Anything to destroy value and business amirite?

because of the potency of Fentanyl, 26 tons is enough to kill 6.6 billion people.
