This made me think of a story I came across the other day of some domestic terrorists that had planned to take out the power grid. They had obviously conceived that they might be captured, so they thought up a similar device. Their idea was to put fentanyl into a capsule and then wear this as a necklace.
When the first conspirator was randomly stopped by the police and he tried to use it to spare his partners. They got him to the hospital. He's in prison currently.
The CIA's idea doesn't seem any more grounded in reality than theirs.

- Tangurena2 4y agoMany people carry Narcan (the most common form of naloxone, is used to counteract opioid overdosing). It is a nasal spray. It is standard equipment for paramedics. Since I'm a patient at a pain clinic, I have to have some in my house and my family (also roommates, if I had any) know where it is and how to use it.
