That would make for two deaths at Kennedy.

Is this it will take for Kennedy admin and MCPS to crack down on security? It’s sad it took loss of life for this to be paid attention to seriously.

That’s tragic, and hopefully not true.

mCPS, the school and busy mostly also parents need to step up and crack down on their own kids. This is not just a failing for the school, but it’s a failing at home with the parents as well.

I recognize that we all parent differently, and one way is not the best or the only. But I think at some point parents need to go into their kids rooms and look through bags, drawers, and have very hard and open conversations with the kids about drug usage.

It's not just kids. Laced drugs are everywhere, all neighborhoods, all ages, all SEC.

Open borders has already supplied enough fentanyl to kill every single American. We ain’t seen nothing yet.

Nice try. Not an open borders issue.

Where you do think the fentanyl onslaught is coming from? Canada? Lol.

China, actually.

But the bigger issue with your claim is simply that we don't have "open borders" and certainly not for goods.

The drugs might originate in China, but please tell us how they physically get into the hands of our teens here in Montgomery County.

According to the DEA, they are coming from China, Mexico, and India:

Yes. And how did the kids in MCPS get their hands on these drugs from China, Mexico, and India?

Can't really change supply but we can change demand. If we really wanted to end this crisis, it could be done tomorrow and it doesn't involve borders.

Bologna. We could shut down the entire country for weeks in an attempt to contain the virus. We can certainly shut down the influx of drugs. It would require acknowledgeing unpalatable facts and taking action. We would need to hold the countries of origin account able for any substance that leaves their country. We would need to secure boaders, check trade cargo, make large scale arrests and convictions of those in all levels of the supply chain. It can absolutely be done and done quickly.

We never did this. The “entire country” was not shut down ever, certainly not for weeks and we didn’t contain the virus so what’s your point?

THIS

Our federal government chooses to allow this to happen. There are definite measures our leaders could take to alleviate the problem, but the political will is not there.

This is the sort of simplistic thinking that works on right-wing radio but not in actual practicality. The United States has almost 2,000 miles of border with Mexico, and another 5,500 miles with Canada. That's just the land borders. Then, we have about 95,000 miles of coastline including more than 300 commercial ports and about 500,000 vessel calls.

Every year, we invest more money in CBP, so this is not a funding issue. It's also not a law enforcement issue unless you are willing to make the case that CBP is "soft on crime."

This is a demand issue. Reduce demand and you will reduce supply.

What’s your point? Are you saying that the federal government has no control over which drugs and in what quantities those drugs enter the US?

If so, then you are most definitely acknowledging that the US has an issue of porous/open borders. At least we agree on that, I guess.

Name five measures they could take, keeping in mind that fentanyl mostly arrives via shipping containers from China and India.

It’s both a supply and demand issue.

Also, how do you propose decreasing demand amongst teens? Please let MCPS know as I’m sure they would appreciate it.

You can’t decrease demand among teens if your state has legalized marijuana which is a gateway drug. Our culture normalizes and glamorizes drug use, now we live with the consequences. Sad but true

Yes to this. Maryland voters legalized marijuana in the last election. Definitely a gateway drug and definitely normalizes drug use. Again, we get what we vote for.

Teens have always made poor choices. Now these poor choices can result in terrible consequences when drugs are involved.

This is EXACTLY what out federal government is supposed to do. We can most definitely ask for cooperation from other countries. Biden and Harris have not done enough to fight that incessant flow of Fentanyl into the US.

Again blaming other countries is not going to help. The solution will be to educate teenagers about dangers of drug use. Not normalize and glamorize drug use. If our teens can say no to drugs then the demand will go down automatically.

Is this it will take for Kennedy admin and MCPS to crack down on security? It’s sad it took loss of life for this to be paid attention to seriously.

That’s tragic, and hopefully not true.

mCPS, the school and busy mostly also parents need to step up and crack down on their own kids. This is not just a failing for the school, but it’s a failing at home with the parents as well.

I recognize that we all parent differently, and one way is not the best or the only. But I think at some point parents need to go into their kids rooms and look through bags, drawers, and have very hard and open conversations with the kids about drug usage.

It's not just kids. Laced drugs are everywhere, all neighborhoods, all ages, all SEC.

Open borders has already supplied enough fentanyl to kill every single American. We ain’t seen nothing yet.

Nice try. Not an open borders issue.

Where you do think the fentanyl onslaught is coming from? Canada? Lol.

Can't really change supply but we can change demand. If we really wanted to end this crisis, it could be done tomorrow and it doesn't involve borders.

Bologna. We could shut down the entire country for weeks in an attempt to contain the virus. We can certainly shut down the influx of drugs. It would require acknowledgeing unpalatable facts and taking action. We would need to hold the countries of origin account able for any substance that leaves their country. We would need to secure boaders, check trade cargo, make large scale arrests and convictions of those in all levels of the supply chain. It can absolutely be done and done quickly.

THIS

Our federal government chooses to allow this to happen. There are definite measures our leaders could take to alleviate the problem, but the political will is not there.

Name five measures they could take, keeping in mind that fentanyl mostly arrives via shipping containers from China and India.

Also how you would "hold the countries of origin accountable".

This is EXACTLY what out federal government is supposed to do. We can most definitely ask for cooperation from other countries. Biden and Harris have not done enough to fight that incessant flow of Fentanyl into the US.

What EXACTLY is our federal government supposed to do?

Our federal government’s job is to regulate who and what comes into the US. Clearly, that is not happening right now.
