Fentanyl test strips are illegal in Florida, the legislature refused to decriminalize them for some reason.
- bigmattystyles 4y agoAt best, they're cowards who don't want to face ads that imply they condone drug use; at worst, they simply refuse to make it safer for anyone with a drug problem because they see them as human detritus.
- chasd00 4y agoIf an addict tested their drugs and the test came back saying “do not take these” do you think an addict is just going to shrug and toss it in the trash? The test strips really do nothing for addicts. It’s not an easy problem.
- dntrkv 4y agoFentanyl strips are not only for drug addicts. Anyone buying recreational drugs is affected by such legislation.
- bigmattystyles 4y agoI mean if that were the case, they wouldn’t test to begin with. I agree it’s a difficult, morally fraught problem but this extra tool doesn’t feel like that to me. Plus think of the casual coke user like a college kid; they might test and their life might be saved.
- braingenious 4y agoYeah you’re right, all addicts are equally stupid and are uniformly unaware that a positive fentanyl result can mean instant death. /s
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> do you think an addict is just going to shrug and toss it in the trash? I assume they'd have a word with their dealer? Or at least adjust the dose?
- humbleguy 4y agoTest strips are not just for addicts. Casual users use them as well. Believe it or not some dealers also use them.
