MTG is so bad.

It was a crisis under him. It was WAY worse under Trump than under Obama. That would show that he didn't fix it, that shows that he made it worse. That's the data
Obama didn't do shit. Trump campaigned on closing the border. Congress wouldn't appropriate the money, period! Trump even tried to move national defense funds from the military to fund the wall. Cock blocked by the leftist cucks in congress! You can't blame this one on Trump. Don't bring a sling shot to a bazooka fight. :rolleyes: 😂
 
Angel dust.
That's PCP isn't it? When I was in my 20's, my girl friend's brother ODed on that, and ran through a sliding plate glass door. Ended up in the hospital for weeks. Eventually got put in a mental institution, became a mental vegetable. I heard he died about 15 years ago, he was 5 years younger than I am.

Yessir. It took me and 7 other officers more than 20 minutes to take down a guy that was dusted and it was one of the most terrifying experiences of my career. And I've been in two prison riots.

So why did Fentanyl increase under Trump?

You also previously said that the border was closed under Trump.

Ummm..........no, I never said that. I said Trump tried to build the wall and shore up border security. Congress would have no part of that. What Trump DID do is make them wait in Mexico awaiting approval for immigration process. And yes, he used Covid 19 Emergency Order to enforce it because the woke ACLU and others tried to cry asylum exceptions which we all know is a ruse. Wanting to leave your crappy country for better jobs is not political asylum.

So he didn't stop fentanyl? He wanted to?

@FresnoGator , can we get a head-banging-against-the-wall emoticon? :rolleyes:

I'll type this VERY slowly.

Controlling the border controls unfettered smuggling activities. It won't stop all of it but it will make it much more difficult. Again, do you leave your door open at night when you go to bed? When it rains, do you use an umbrella or just not bother because you'll just get your feet a little wet anyway? 😂
 
Angel dust.
I ran around with a crowd that liked to party, and I never ran into Angel dust. I graduated in 1995 to give you a time frame.

I saw coke, meth (alot), lsd, mushrooms (and of course pot) and heard about heroin but - with one exception - never saw it. The exception was called "H-Bomb" and we were told it was a pressed pill of heroin and cocaine meant to mimic the effects of MDMA...basically it's a speedball. I guess real ecstasy wasn't getting to central OK at the time. None of my friends who took it ever had any issues other than it made them throw up almost immediately and they felt awful the next day. They seemed to enjoy everything in between though.

Either way, I don't think you can compare the deadliness of PCP to Fentanyl. A tiny spec of pure fent will drop you dead in your tracks. It's hard to even find statistics on PCP deaths, and a majority are from acting a fool and not the drug shutting your body down.

No one's going to stop any drug 100%, don't be an absolutist about an issue like drug control, gun control, etc.

But it certainly doesn't help to make it easy. That's indisputable.
Sometimes it's like talking to this......... :rolleyes:

The rate of increase slowed down when we were trying to control illegal immigration. That's the best we can hope for, saving some lives.

And do you remember the dems blocking his wall construction and border policies every single step of the way?

I do.

I am not saying all or nothing, but you guys both acknowledged that it wouldn't stop it completely. So to put all of those excuses on a wall is disingenuous. It would maybe make a small reduction. That is playing politics.

The best way to stop these deaths, is to get people off drugs. That should be the focal point. Get rid of the demand.

FYI, I am not anti wall. I actually think that it makes sense. I think that impact the right believes it will have isn't accurate.

I thought the border was secure BUT yet fentanyl is getting in because Trump needed a wall. LMAO!
 
He's an independent, he's done his research.

But I digress...
COME on, don't be anti me to "fit in". You already know that orange was wrong in this assessment of me. To defend him knowing that he is wrong, isn't it.
 
I truly respect your assessment. I will push back on some few items.

I don't disagree that we have a major fentanyl crisis. Only an idiot would deny that. However, I will mention that 4 biggest years of fentanyl related deaths besides what will be Biden 4 years, were Trump 4 years.

So to say that issue is arresting illegals doesn't match the data. Trump arrested illegals but he had a major fentanyl problem under his presidency. That clearly didn't stop the problem.

I'm not saying that Biden administration isn't without fault. It clearly got worse under him. I just think this problem is something Biden inherited, more so than created as the MTGs of the world like to say. That's based on the data.

As I mentioned in my post...

1. China is flooding the world with fentanyl

...that is absolutely a factor. Yes, fentanyl deaths were already on the rise prior to Biden. However, this issue was made worse, not better, by nearly unfettered illegal immigration.

The rise has been quite sharp under Biden whereas it was a rather steady increase prior to his inauguration.

Did it start under Biden? Absolutely not. Has the Biden Administration's policies at the border and with immigration in general exacerbated the issue? That's undeniable.
 
You truly believe a wall would stop fentanyl from getting in America?

I don't. Some level of control over illegal immigration would certainly help stem the tide, however.

We can't simply throw our hands up and concede defeat. An effective barrier would help slow much of the flow and it would give time to border control agents to respond to areas where a breach is taking place. That's the purpose of a barrier imo.

Fences and walls don't keep inmates in prison either fwiw. But they help.

I completely agree that Biden administration doesn't seem to be doing anything to stop it.

A lot more than you are. I am an honest partisan. You are a lying phony pretend independent. You should feel shame, but you won't.

You are an idiot who cannot read. I have been saying on this board for years that I am partisan, and like the clueless dolt that you are, you think you are hearing that for the first time? Man, you are stupid.

From May of last year, but of course you can't read or retain

Biden won't go and comfort any victims where the black guy is the bad guy. Too bad you can't admit that. You are incredibly partisan in defending Biden. At least, I am honest about being a partisan. You are VERY dishonest about your partianship. Have you ever started a thread...

I'm familiar. Personal responsibility is still part of the equation. You never know what's in a dirty roll either. So if I choose to take one and instead of tripping balls I drop dead I'm not blaming the dealer and I don't expect sympathy.

I think trotting this lady out was dumb.

I'm placing blame on you and your dealer. There's enough blame to go around. And despite your culpability in your own death, yes, I'm going to try and charge your dealer with your death.

Agree trotting out that lady was a stupid political stunt. In my experience (which may be different from what LE are seeing elsewhere), fentanyl is killing longer term addicts.

They flock to the supply that's causing overdoses because "clearly that stuff is hot."

Food for thought, fentanyl is doing to heroine addicts what covid has done to people with multiple comorbidities. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but the results are rather undeniable.

It's a tool and it would help stem the tide. Without an effective barrier, I honestly don't know how I would begin to control the problem.

I meant personally. I'm sure not going to rise from the grave in my dealers defense. And my mother would want the dealer charged with everything including for unlawful carnal knowledge.

Fentanyl is killing people who in my estimation are stupid or without value to society. But they are still Americans and China is the one doing the dealing so that shit needs to stop with a quickness.

It would make more of a difference than a small reduction.

An effective barrier would also allow for more human resources to be available at points of entry, thus cutting into another entry point.

The best way to stop these deaths, is to get people off drugs. That should be the focal point. Get rid of the demand.

Want to get depressed...check out the statistics on recovery. Less than 12% of these types of addicts will ever get clean. Short of mass lobotomies, I don't see how we rid ourselves of the demand.

Some people might say that fentanyl itself is, in a twisted way, the solution to the demand.
 
China is the one doing the dealing so that shit needs to stop with a quickness.

On this point, you would think there are white hat spook operators who could destroy these quasi clandestine Chinese manufacturing plants and their infrastructure where they are. IMO, you could make a HUGE impact in this manner.

And my mother would want the dealer charged with everything including for unlawful carnal knowledge.

😂🤣🤣...tell your mom her talks with most of the women I knew growing up were annoyingly effective.
