Fentanyl is ultimately coming from China. Can we stop blaming Mexico?
20 2 ReplyChristie spitting facts.
Weird.
17 1 ReplyWell, China is supplying it South of the border.
The big dealers in Portland are all Honduran.
8 1 ReplyI mean, cut off the source, the distributors have nothing to distribute.
9 0 ReplyLegally, that's kind of shaky ground. You're talking about disrupting trade between two independent nations.
Not sure how we'd even go about it these days. Waaaaaay back in the day we'd hire privateers to pirate their ships.
6 0 ReplyIf the Mexican government is condoning the import of a substance that is designed to kill humans, that is a different conversation.
Pretty sure they don't want this any more than we do.
4 1 ReplyFentanyl isn't designed to kill humans, is a pharmaceutical which, improperly used, CAN kill humans.
Source: Was on fentanyl for my open heart surgery. Did not die. Bonus: Propofol too! Oxy afterwards!
11 0 ReplyYeah, when it is pharmaceutical fentanyl. In ICU, we maintained people through horrific circumstances on fentanyl/versed drips.
But now, there are pressed pills and cocaine containing norfentanyl, carfentanyl, etc that those expecting illicit xanax or simple crack etc get dead from.

Hard to cut off something that one person can make in a basement. The current supply chain is just the most economical.
