Drink Mix Makes Its Way Into Meth »

Posted by: STONERS 2 years, 6 months ago

Arkansas police officers had seen leftover methamphetamine ingredients just like the mess they found in a suspected cook's trash can last month. What gave them pause this time were the packets of strawberry-flavored children's drink mix next to the bin.

    It was among the officers' first encounters with "Strawberry Quick," the latest version of methamphetamine, a drug authorities say manufacturers are constantly remaking to keep their customer base growing.

    From lollipops to high-sugar sodas, law enforcement officials say they've found meth cut with a variety of candies, drinks and other materials over the years. Officials say the "designer meth" can smooth the ingestion of the drug, making it easier for first-time users to try.

      We ain't gonna stop it until we're done in like the Chinese were done in by opium (which we sold them). At that time, as with the Chinese, we will get a totalitarium government that will clean up the mess - take the junkies out and shoot them; burn crack houses and their tenants and hang all people caught transporting illegal drugs in any form - immediately and publiclly.

      We don't fear drugs, we fear not having them. The country has sold out to them and our children are going to pay dearly for our sins; if you've ever been to a child abuse center, you'll see it's already begun in a very large way.

      DON'T TOLERATE DRUG USE IN ANY FORM - THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A CASUAL METH HEAD OR CRACK SMOKER!!! It's not cool!!

      It's just plain stupid and destructive...

      You want to see how cool drugs are, spend the weekend in an ER and watch them come in....

        And for all you people who think that you can control the War on Drugs. You have not been able to control it this whole time. What makes you think that new laws or enforcing the old ones even more are going to stop things like this?

        You do not jail a user you get them help. When a fireman sees a fire and goes to it. He does not pour more fuel onto the fire to spread it more. He puts it out. The same with users. Putting them in jail does not put out the fire. It might contain it for a while but once they are free. They explode and something worse happens.

        This country looks at illegal drugs like an epidemic. But when you have kids killing themselves on getting fat. What do you self improving people do them or the adults who are the same. You put them on drugs. You cure people who have abuse drugs with more drugs. We are fighting a fire with more fuel. It will never stop. Take it out of the dealers hands and use the money off taxes to help them.
