I’ve heard a lecture by a DEA agent several years ago, and he said they’ll find folks dead with the needle still in their arm and only half injected because they died that fast. They said the drugs can be laced with tranquilizers for large zoo animals- elephants, rhinos, hippos; that are about 100 times more potent than regular fentanyl.

Wow! Why as a manufacturer would you lace drugs with theses things? I get that they must be cheaper. But killing your consumers Doesn’t seem to be a good long term business strategy. And, as someone d else asked, why would anyone take drugs knowing this is a very real risk?

I've wondered the same, I never understood the basis for killing your clientele? I don't remember that concept from any of my business classes in McCool Hall

Nothing makes you a repeat customer faster than a Rhino high - if you live through it.

But there are other manufacturers that take a similar approach.

Questioning why crackheads sell or take deadly drugs shows that you haven’t tried to put yourself in crackhead shoes. There is no reasoning with a crackhead. There is no logic. It’s sad as hell when it’s someone you know.
I think you were responding to me but you basically repeated my question in a statement. dial it back from crackhead level. what is someone looking for that knowingly takes "illicit drugs"? what thrill or escape can be worth that immediate high?

It is a sad thing and unfortunately many have no clue of what they are taking these days. Some of yall may recall the story I shared about my daughter several years ago. She hit a vape at a party in Madison that was laced with fentanyl. Bottom line it was a quick downhill slide from there and we almost lost her. It was a tough road for my family but with the grace of God it has made us stronger and she is doing well and will graduate from Arkansas in May. Until this day knowing what my family went through and meeting other families with the same struggle I never look at "crack heads" the same. My heart breaks for them as satan controls them with the drugs. This **** today aint the same as what many experienced 30-40 years ago. Many times it is a one and done deal and it doesn't discriminate across race, ethnicity or financial status.

Because crackheads are always looking for a higher high. If they hear that Tommy bought some stuff so strong that it killed him, they are likely to go buy from Tommy’s dealer. If that dealer looses one client but gains 5 new ones, he wins.

Pain, guilt, sadness, stress, loneliness. The list goes on and on. The addiction is filling a void and it just fuels it more.
This.
Depression/guilt is a B1tchh.
It feels like a hole you can't dig out of.

Alcohol and drugs dull, or even reverse the pain, albeit temporarily. Sometimes you'll feel like it's the last refuge to keep you going, and without it you fear you will simply unalive yourself at some point.

having never been addicted to any type drug, alcohol, or tobacco.... what are people running away from that causes someone to purposely pursue the "high or protection" that kills?
I honestly envy someone who asks a question like this.

Although, being an Ole Miss fan requires embracing a delusional self centered fantasy world I couldn't survive anyway.

I went to school with a guy who admittedly had a problem but he never met a pill he didn’t want to try. His favorite was a quaalude with a drop of acid on it. He said there was nothing like it, I never found out nor ever will. When he couldn’t find pills his go to was to take a whole bottle of cough syrup and bust open a Vicks inhaler and dissolve the little stick in the inhaler into the cough syrup. He’d then kill it. He never got out of hand or bothered anything. Oddly enough, he didn’t drink.

just once in your miserable life can you give the antagonistic ******** a rest. it's a serious conversation. not everything has to succumb to your level of self ingraciating "gotcha". are you a child or seriously emotionally under developed?

I have never understood the business model of putting things in your drugs that would kill your customers immediately. I mean they are going to be repeat customers if they are taking these things and you are cutting off your money. Are there not 7 million other things you could cut the drugs with that do not kill people and keep them Coming back? Why are you as distributor cutting off your customer base?

Ok. You’re right.
The ole Miss jab was simply another defense mechanism I use: dark humor.

Me being serious:

I envy those who don’t understand pain, guilt, and depression, especially as it pertains to substances that temporarily numb them.

If you have 5 minutes and 11 seconds, this cartoon is a pretty powerful explanation. Giving in to one temptation or peer pressure is all it takes with a powerful drug.

I've had fentanyl before. I didn't realize it at the time, but apparently it worked because I didn't care what they did. It just showed up on a listing of what happened when I was in the hospital. I was having a heart cath at the time.
