Until you experience chronic pain due to illness or accident, you don’t have the right to stop properly prescribe medication that helps a lot of patients with debilitating pain.
I know of people who took their own lives due to extreme pain.
USA needs to invide mexico and make a buffer zone
Cocain kills 27000 nobody cares.
Please Google "Opium Wars" an learn. China solved it's own problem, why can't the west.
NOT COMING FROM CANADA??
WILL YOU CORRECT POTUS WHO IS THREATENING CANADA FOR BRINGING IN THESE DRUGS!??
Don't blame the substance. Blame the policy. Specifically, the Controlled Substances Act and War on Drugs.
It's not disguised as a prescription drug. It is a prescription drug, and it's administered in hospitals.
As a business Man, you take your merchandise to the areas, cities, Countries where you have Customers. The Merchants, popularly known as drug dealer or Cartel sees America as a greener pasture since they have more Customers there. So what is Trump's problem? Idi-Amin of America, (American bully XXL). Discourage the Customers from having access to the drugs, the Dealers will go away. So stop bullying Canada and Mexico, after all, there are borders between the USA, Canada and Mexico. Protect your borders with incorruptible law enforcement Agents, fentanyl and other drugs entering the US will reduce significantly.

i don’t feel any sorry for that kid.
The last 2 minutes was about healthcare, and basically their responsibility, but then it went back to arresting smugglers and war. Maybe healthcare and treating addiction is the real solution? Is the same amount spent on treatment?
She's lying. Americans are making the drug right in the US line Americans don't have the ability to manufacture the components.
He does not look like their son. Adopted?
That’s horrifying my heart 💜 breaks for all of the victims especially there families and loved ones. This should’ve never happened.
Maybe it’s the correct analogy for Trump to cast blame on countries not doing enough to stem the flow of drugs into United States.
So using that same logic GUNS manufactured and distributed by companies in America are responsible for deaths here just the same. Or not?
I think the US government should look at its own country before blaming Mexico, well its own studies have shown that 80% of fentanyl is produced in the United States, distributed by American citizens and obviously consumed by its population, evidence that its biggest problem comes from itself
I don't know why they insist on blaming Mexico and denying the existence of American drugcartels that of course work in collaboration with the United States government.
We have about 40,000 gun related deaths in the US each year. Is fentanyl death really a crisis?
Its canadas fault! 🤦♂️
Why does no one asked why there are so many addicts in America, if there wasn't a demand for the drug here in America, America will not be the destination for it's destruction
Make the illegal drugs legal. That way the purity would be known and a person would be less likely to overdose. You could tax them and use the tax money to help people who want to recover from addiction. Don't blame the cartels. We've been through this before with prohibition. Unfortunately there is so much money to be made having a ''war" on drugs private prisons, gun profits, the political profits from fear, the ego profits of thinking those of us without an addiction…. That people forget that loving ones neighbors even if they are drug addicts would be so much better for our society and also people in Mexico who are also losing everything to these cartels.
