  Are there any users here? This drug is so dangerous due to overdose and unknown manufacturing method/substance that it seems insane to me that people would continue to do it. Why not just do weed instead?

  I'm kind of old, this is my 5th or 6th illicit drug moral panic. 1. LSD - it'll make you jump out of windows, and your children will be born with ectrodactly 2. Heroin - you will become a filthy degenerate 3. PCP/Angel dust - you will become an insane violent monster who kills their parents 4. Crack - makes people into virtual slaves, and their children are crippled, barely human 5. Meth - same as crack, but your teeth fall out. You'll pardon me if this seems like we're all tired of meth, it's time for a new moral panic to motivate stricter laws and more police presence.

    You missed oxycontin, which came after meth. It had the advantage of being legal, so it was a lot more pervasive. That one got plugged up at the source, by suing the manufacturer. Fentanyl came in to replace it.
