      RIP. I've heard some stories from people I know about their children or children's friends dying of Fentanyl OD when they thought they were playing with something they (the story tellers) used to do as experiments or once-in-awhile fun; such as X or acid that turned out to laced. I doubt it has ever been this dangerous to be a kid.

    Yes!! The extradition to the US for these crimes would be HUGE, both for getting them off the streets and as a deterant. If they're involved in traffic across the border, lock them up here. More money needed here in the US, for more prisons, or incentive for privatization of prisons , here in the US. The ability to keep them for lengthy prison sentences, without the chance of parole. Back to tough on crime. Well said and thank you Sirs for an educating podcast....😀

    • @veritas6466
      @veritas6466 11 месяцев назад

      You are advocating a drug enforcement policy that is unequivocally an abject failure! Case in point, Escobar is more than off the street and in jail… He’s dead. Is the Medellin cartel gone or reorganized under younger, more ruthless leadership? Are the peasants of Peru and Bolivia still growing cocoa? Another more recent example is El Chapo. He’s off the street, extradited to the US, locked up in a SuperMax prison and now the Sinaloa Cartel is stronger than ever. Using the same disastrous drug policy approach repeatedly begets the same results.

      Well its flooded our streets and communities. I live in AZ a border state, and its everywhere! 1ea or even less. If there wasn't as much fentanyl supply here, then people wouldn't be as addicted, and therefore wouldn't be AS addicted and would have a much better chance at recovery and getting clean if they could only get say 5-10 pills/blues a day instead of 50+ a day to smoke. Some people i know smoke 70-100 a day bcuz there so cheap now. Thats a result of the supply going way way up these past couple of years..

      Look at history! This is a problem that no "government" in all history has ever solved. Bring one perp to justice, and 10,000 rise from the mud to replace him\her. Drugs, (heroin\cocaine\meth\ scrooms) have controlled Europe since the Roman empire. The cartels control these guys bosses!!! The top contributor to Nancy Polosi's campaign was Chappo himself. The cartels put Hobbs in the governor's chair in Arizona. They own and control most of the small and medium towns along the Texas border, as well as several large ones. If you think Chappo is in a "jail" cell in a super max in Colorado, you obviously don't know how this thing works. Maybe someone who looks a lot like Chappo is setting in a cell in Colorado, but the chances it's Chappo are slim to none.
      This is a moral issue NOT a legal one, that will be with us until the demand dries up. The same goes for human trafficking. Human trafficking with be with us until, the middle aged pervs from the burbs are cleaned up or incarcerated.
      We have to stop this ourselves. Setting in front of the TV watching another fixed football game isn't gonna do it.

    But he is looking at it from a fighting the seller perspective and that is what the actual root cause making also money on drugs abuses. The higher up the food change in the busines, the saver the position if the bottum gets exchanged easily. That's why Drive In staff earns less than Manhatten layers. The actual problem is a market law: Demand meets Offer. Who would not understand in the U.S. what Fentanyl is?
    To fight this crisis, like all other crisis, we have to understand who asks for this substance.
    The U.S. military had big issues with mental health of the soldiers and invested in resiliance programs. There is a TED talk on RUclips of the very woman that lead that research. Unfortunatelly, a lot of media outlets started to mix up resiliance with resistance.
    Drug use is another form of mental health and needs the same research to understand how we as a society can stop humans from creating demand, how we can change society to create humans creating demand and finaly to understand how to stop humans from feeding that demand.

      @Janzer_ 11 месяцев назад

      that's faulty logic, often spoken by non-americans. a drug is addicting, let's understand that as the basis here. something that is addicting, and the more addicting it is, will cause people to seek it out. people did not seek out addicting drugs, addicting drugs were introduced by some and a whole market was built around this. south american countries that are just now putting in jail all their cartel gangs such as honduras and el salvador, allowed their country to become corrupt by drug trafficking to the united states. those countries created more of the problem by flooding the US with drugs. we would have less of a problem if there weren't as many drugs going around. period. so back at you with that same comment, "take responsibility for your actions", is what I say to those that are importing drugs and have allowed their countries to exist around the corruption of drug trafficking.
