Pot is being cut with it? That extremely rare guys. you'd have to buy it from literally off the street which is why it's important to legalize it so it can be regulated. queue the comment replies
Keep voting for and defending the people causing it though. I love when lefties make videos like this. Guess what , the rest of the world you consider stupid has been talking about this for a decade but when it is brought up people would just call them white supremist that hated immigrants. Just like now that BLM has been exposed for what they are you just dont talk about them anymore rather than actually admit your stupidity. But I know I know everyone that warned u is clearly still a racist with Hitler portraits hanging in their living rooms. Its amazing how many "Super Smart" folks are not only stupid but downright dishonest.
this killed george floyd
You CAN NOT DIE from touching or being near Fentanyl.
I carry a 2-pack of Narcan with me everywhere. Never been an addict, never used pain killers other than ibuprofen, but on the off chance I stumble across someone who shows signs of an OD I'm ready. Guess it's the detox tech in me.
George Floyd approves.
I know someone who was once prescribed fentanyl. It wasn't in pill form, but as a transdermal patch. I don't think there's any way to use this safely use this drug orally.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention and to the attention of everyone. I've never heard of it and can't wait to try it. Looks like a lot of fun…
My cousin died at 22 of fentanyl laced heroin od she was beautiful
Thank you for talking about this.
Or you could just legalize it so you could get clean and reputable drugs with a doctors prescription. Drugs don’t kill. Misuse of drugs kills. And if the doctor over prescribes like they did with oxycodone then they should be sued for malpractice.
Fentanyl took my sister this March. A buddy of hers bought some street coke for $20. Asked her if she wanted to go back to his place and do it with him. She did, and she died. It took $20 to kill my sister.
Now, I have no clue how much $20 of coke is. Seems cheap to me, but I know nothing about drugs, except when that knowledge has been forced upon me.
2:48 Important fact check for the writer; A grain of rice is not 2 milligrams. 2 mg is much smaller. A grain of rice weights 20 to 60 mg.
One fentanyl patch took away pain in back then I got violently ill turns out I’m allergic bad stuff
If only there had been some sort of high profile, highly publicized death by fentanyl overdose to raise awareness of this a few years ago. Would have been awful if that death was covered up to protect pharmaceutical companies and appease public outcry
The cops should start locking up those who use it just like they did/do crack
you are certainly doing your part on the education front, most commendable !
i really believe a presentation of this quality will save some lives the more people see this the better.
What I don't understand about the whole fentanyl problem is why cartels do it. After all why put it into all sorts of things and risk killing your customers, that can't be that great business strategy, most users/ drug buyers are repeat customers after all…
This would make sense in some cases (like people planning to sell at festivals or concerts), but for the average street dealer it's economic suicide to kill his customers…
Fentanyl is great for a nice relaxing rainy day though!
That's why I have a two huge wallets, one in each pocket. They balance each other out. I'm considering going with four wallets to balance out the front too.
The video is horrifying, the comments section absolutely heart-breaking. I've never wept over comments before now.
Sincere condolences to all the grief-stricken friends and relatives missing victims to this curse on society.
To all those who have recovered from addiction – stay strong and keep up the good fight. Remember this video is always here, with all the love and best wishes of us all.
And to all those that may be tempted, have just started their addiction, or who have friends or family that have just started down this terrible path – take action now before it's too late. Rewatch or share this video, and take heed of all these warnings before it's too late
could fentanyl be used by the texas prison system to do capitol punishment and ditch the animal drug that the french company refuses to sell?
And morons think that people can just be allowed to use "legal drugs".
The only way we can stop people from needlessly dying is by accepting that people like to use drugs and ending the war on drugs completely, if the market were regulated you could have online stores sort of like an out of sight out of mind kinda thing with pure pharmaceutical grade drugs that came with warning labels and exact dosages
This is the only way we can as a society fix this issue not only would it save countless lives it would make criminal cartels lose millions that otherwise could have been used in more helpful ways for society.
Doesn’t this suggest that some illegal street drug producers are indulging in mass murder?
If there was a more open market for these substances, you might see distributors competing on things like customer safety or proving the purity of their products. In lieu of this, making test strips widely available for free might force the market to regulate itself. I know two people who died of this.
What if I was to say that this sounds like the Opium Wars between China and the UK (1839-1842, 1856-1860) only in reverse.
Sucks to have another country wilfully peddling drugs to your citizens on not giving a dam, huh !
They should just make it illegal. That would fix the problem, right? Oh wait, were talking about the same government that makes landmines. It's almost like it's a created problem.
I am an opioid addict and often had fentanyl, so i built up tolerance to doses of 7-12 mg (12000microg), but i ever informed myself before trying, otherwise I would be dead as the 13 people who died of F here in my neighborhood in a small town in north germany. Maybe not the full horror of US, but it scares me how fast and consequent this chem kills. Heroine was kindergarten, compared to F. Im in methadone program and my last street drug is over 2 years now. I burn candles for all of them who couldnt win this fight. Without accepting social workers and other helping hands, i would be one ov them. Peace
Personally I think the real problem is fentanyl analogs that are being made in China very cheap. For the longest time you could buy them as research chemicals. All kinds of recreational drugs were able to be bought this way. Hell it's still happening.
Don’t do drugs.
If only Simon had released this a few years ago…
Fentanyl Floyd might still be kicking.
An uncooked grain of rice is closer to 50mg than 2mg. Just 2mg is such a small amount it is hard to see.
I was given fentanyl in the hospital during a procedure when I started getting anxious.. the nurses literally called it goofy juice and they use the high produced to calm people down.
That anyone thought making super heroin would be totally cool and never face the same/worse problems as normal heroin really just shows how stupid educated people can be.
You will never get rid of fentanyl, it's in every hospital in America. People will do drugs and all our punitive laws and education will do nothing if people can't get their drugs tested for purity. "But maybe if people ODing can buy the antidote" shut the fuck up dude
The feeling from fentanyl is NOT the same as hydrocodone, OxyContin, oxycodone, morphine, heroin, you name it!!! Everything EXCEPT fentanyl will make you feel lovely Lol fentanyl will just kill you!!! I’m in Kentucky 😉
It sounds like the opium wars except this time China supplies the west with fentayl
You know if somone wanted to assinate a celeberty they could just poison them with a lethal dose of fentanal and no one would suspect foul play.
1 min 14 sec add to start….nice
8:34 and the flowers look nice
Ad placement for this video is on point. Just saw an ad for state sponsored addiction centers in my state.
I can’t tell you the number of accidental overdoses I have had to respond to as a detective. The last 20 I have done all were from fentanyl. Without NARCAN, I can’t imagine how many people would die. It’s amazing g how little it takes.
Make more, there is still traffic in LA.
The Chinese government is fine that it's killing Americans because they see us as the arch enemy. I say, two can play at that game. Get the CIA to produce fentanyl and cause an epidemic in China. When they learn America is producing it, and they contact POTUS, he offers a deal. We stop our production if they stop their production. Chinese government observers come over to America to observe us shutting down and eliminating our supplies and they allow us to do the same.
The thing is chinas government knows very well how destructive drugs are expecialy opiates are, from there own history, they of all countrys should know just how wrong allowing huge amounts of opiates to be produced and exported is from there own history
