    Oh I’m so grateful they are expending resources to catch this non-lethal drug before it hits the hands of groovy people. Meanwhile opioids have killed how many this year alone?

        Can we arrange it so that each bribed politician gets a lil fentanyl slipped in their morning beverage of choice.

        I mean that would be truly poetic justice.
