    The Central Texas Mexican Drug Cartel is laughing, drinking, eating, dancing. They are omnipotent and have NO FEAR of arrest from anyone.

      As long as there is a demand these groups will always be in business. The money they rake in is unbelievable.

      Yeah, because they know they will be set free the same day they get arrested.

      They have no fear because they've stocked up on American weapons. Guns go south, drugs come north

    We didn't have this problem, until the government cracked down on all pain medication. People don't start off wanting Fentynal. Just as America had the world's lowest crime rate, and safest streets....before we started the war on drugs. We can either have safe streets, or a drug war. We can't have both.

      Because it was never about street fentanyl….theres no money in that war. Now opioid litigation -> going after mds (ie: asset forfeiture) & manufacturers--follow the💲💲💲
      Best most realistic comment btw 💯🎯🎯🎯

    I’ve lost two friends this year to fentanyl and multiple more in the recent years. This is absolutely disgusting what our leaders are letting happen to our country. Both these friends of mine that passed away were very young, one of them had just turned 21 and the other was 23. Their whole lives were stolen from them because they were trying to medicate themselves because our own government needs to decide what we put in our bodies, so nobody can get the medicine they need. People are hurting out here and nobody should be able to tell you how to treat your pain. It’s your body, your mind, you should decide what you do with it. Trust me I know my friends had made their decisions taking street pills because we all knew the dangers but it shouldn’t even be like this in the first place. We used to always say that people that took street pills are usually suicidal because I don’t know one person doing pills that actually cares if the pill takes their life or not. It’s extremely depressing and hopeless to say the least.

    Recreational drug usage in this country is over! It's a gamble with dark disaster if you take street drugs now!

    Stay away from any kind of drugs, even if they say is harmless, don’t abuse any kind of pain medicine, to say the least.

    To anyone thinking about moving to Austin (or visiting there) - DON'T. The city has tripled it's population in less than 2 decades, and it is now becoming the drug capital of the United States! Downtown is full of wealthy residents that have their drugs delivered right to their doorsteps. It's the main reason I moved away from that disgusting city a decade ago. My two friends that live there now tell me they are SCARED to go anywhere, especially Zilker Park!

    Austin is just like Kensington Avenue in Philadelphia and the Tenderloin in San Francisco. The Democratic Party and its policies have struck again.

    No empathy for drug addicts! Druggies chose to play " russian roulette"! Narcam only gives the addict another day to play " russian roulette"!
