Partying in 2024 isn’t like 2004, 94 or 84 people!

Please tell your kids to only stick to alcohol or pot from reputable sources if they can’t control themselves.


Pot can be laced with fentanyl.


Not cannabis purchased from a licensed and regulated dispensary.

Dispensary marijuana is the safest option for college aged students looking to experiment with mind altering substances. The risks are very low compared to any other substance.

Alcohol is not really safe because young people typically drink to excess and there are a great many alcohol poisoning deaths every year among the age group.


DS said dispensary weed costs more… so some kids still get on the street. Ugh.


The government needs to step in and subsidize the industry to drive the street vendors out of business.


Because of mostly Southern states not legalizing weed the drug cartels are still in business. I know weed has nothing to do with fentanyl. Fentanyl is mostly made in China and shipped by mail or through the Southern borders.


How about close the border? Southern states don’t need to legalize drug use nor should they. No states should.

He wasn’t in a southern state so your argument is crap.

You need many does of narcan since fentanyl is so much more potent. Often times just a few narcan doses don’t do the job.


Plus you need narcan in the window when the person is still breathing and hasn’t gone into cardiac arrest from lack of oxygen.


I don’t understand how you’d know there was fentanyl in time to give Narcan. It seems like people don’t suspect… they just assume the user fell asleep or is high/stoned.

And what happens if you take Narcan without fentanyl in your system?


If you find someone unconscious, then you give Narcan whether you know they took drugs or not. It supposedly doesn’t harm a person if they are given Narcan but didn’t actually take drugs.

Such a profoundly ignorant statement.

Just because you are sad by proxy doesn’t make PPs statement untrue.

It’s the opposite of ignorance to know that most drug deaths do not, in fact, occur during the very first use

The danger of taking fentanyl has been highly publicized and while It is very sad when anyone dies from taking fentanyl or any drug but they made the stupid choice.


It’s laced into other drugs. If that had been the case back in the 80s, I can’t imagine how many people I know who would have died.


Why do drug dealers lace fentanyl into other drugs? Doesn't that cost more to do it that way?

And it sounds like people are more likely to overdose -- why try to kill off their customers?

Never done drugs before, so no clue about this stuff.


Fentanyl is super cheap & very potent. So drug dealers pass it off as other opioids or lace other drugs with it. I assume they prefer their customers not die, but I guess there are always more customers? I don’t know the answer to that question.

People take Fentanyl on purpose too, not just inadvertently.


Nope


Uh, yes.

They definitely do. I used to work in a job where we encountered people who did. Some people take it to get high. They do.

I live in a southern state and have a medical marijuana card. We even have a few dispensaries. So the blanket southern statement is false.
The reasons kids don't use a legal dispensary is because it costs for that card, weed is expensive there, they all think they are smarter and know street drugs. Unfortunately it doesn't end well. Eric Bolling's son comes to mind. But then something else comes into play. Especially the date of this death.

I remember how hard I rolled my eyes about the book. I don’t think people understand how much of their (parenting) success is due to luck.

You may think it's ignorant but it is a true statement. Poke a rattlesnake and you have a 100% chance of being bit
Take illegal drugs and you have a 100% chance of dying.

The dealers are not making the drugs most of the time. If you are selling a narcotic or opioid on the black market, you might use fentanyl to make the drug give a bigger high for a cheaper cost. So you make more money. They aren’t really trying to kill people, but these are perfect chemists. And every one is different. So many people could maybe take a fake oxy and be just very high. Another person could die from the same dose.

So the dealers might not know if they are pushing oxys that are just oxy or ones with fentanyl. Or they maybe do know, but they also know the habitual users have a high tolerance. Those are their best customers. And the least likely to die from one bad pill. The occasional user is MUCH more likely to die from just one use.

It’s a huge complicated problem. And yes it means lots of “good kids” are dying from simple experimentation that many others have done with no repercussions.

This is a good article explaining the issues and our many policy failures around it:

I think they meant a high probability of dying. You get the point.
