If we limit it to people who are using non-prescription drugs, without judgement, this will be the Game Changer they describe. First Heroin, but now cocaine, and even black market cannabis, are being tainted with fentanyl. For that set of people, stopping an accidental poisoning is much more important than potential complications with pain medication later.
- freedomben 4y agoThis seems utterly insane to me as a solution compared to just making it possible (without facing extreme criminal penalties) to buy what you think you are buying. I haven't checked but I would guess that the number of fentanyl deaths for people who buy cannabis from legal businesses don't typically get product that is contaminated.
- LarryMullins 4y ago> even black market cannabis, are being tainted with fentanyl I've heard claims like this for decades, it was and probably still is a frequent claim made by cops and teachers giving DARE presentations in American public schools. It doesn't make much sense and never did, why would weed dealers be giving people more drugs than they actually paid for? It sounds like a cope excuse people come up with on the spot when they don't want to admit what drugs they were actually taking. Ask an alcoholic after a car accident how many drinks they had: "I only had one beer, I don't know how this could have happened!" Ask a fent-head after the OD what happened: "I don't know, I only smoked a little weed!" Yeah right. inb4 "dealers do it to get people addicted"; it's weed, it sells itself.
