Heroin dealers should be charged with attempted mass murder.

People die because of heroin everyday, possibly every minute, but you don’t really hear of anyone dying because of meth. They usually just move to Eureka, crawl around town pushing a baby stroller, steal some shit, take stuff apart, and pick their scabs.

Or poison their neighbors and their animals with their outgassing. Methamphetamine/Stimulant toxicity was the leading cause of alcohol and other drugs-related unattended deaths in 2017. Read the facts in the Sheriff Coroner report!

Yes, and doesn’t this crime qualify for the proposed Capital Punishment of heavy drug traffickers?

One must consider how all that opium and heroin makes its way to the USA. Afghanistan is one of
the most surveilled locations on the planet. Drones are constantly in the skies, CIA agents run amok, the US Army and Marines, check points are on all the roads…how in the fookin’ world does it get here? All of the dire consequences that you wish for the local dealers should apply to the
“big boys” at the top, shouldn’t they? Who ARE the”big boys? Don’t think too hard……

The United States imports opium from Afghanistan,turns over to makers and dealers who then sell it to scumbags.scumbags commit crimes which feeds the prison/jail system which generates revenue to support war on drugs.

the two white guys popped in the Coop parking lot with exactly 3 kilos of meth probably have no connection either. its called supply and demand. we need to work on the demand part if we want to solve this.

Have you ever had ants get in your house and if you have, do you just squish the ants one at a time? or do you find where they’re coming into your house and put down some poison…

Is that Fred? Fred Flintstone?

Anyone with a pound of that Mexican Dope should have to stay in jail at least 3-4 hours, in THIS county…

Folks, if you cook this shit and then shoot it up, you need your head examined!

This guy is a real asset to the community. His services are vital to the county’s economy. If he imports 50 lbs of heroin annually and only 10 people die and only hundreds of lives and families are ruined because of it that’s a pretty low percentage when you consider how many people would be sick without him and his product. In a way he’s somewhat of a doctor doing his part to keep this county healthy. Just how many tax dollars were used for this bust?

The sad reality is the drugs that he brings in and sells kills less people than the drugs prescribed by doctors.

The Mexican cartel is way more organized then local dope Growers. For one their mules are not allowed to use their drugs and they’re smart enough not to keep the money with the drugs, that’s why you hardly hear of any asset forfeiture or cash confiscation during these large heroin and meth bust.

They literally protest ICE when they’re called to a heroin bust consisting of more than 6 pounds.

Hey u all don’t seem to want to punish the poor poor addict who keeps these people in business. It all goes back to our broken screwed up society. We now kick our children out of the security of home if they don’t do or think like their idiot parents. So what do 80 percent of people do when their security is ripped from them? They get high. High with what’s handy. Well I’ve never known of heroin to be handy. So use your brains and think about why are these people in business still?

Never trust someone who’s head tapers like that. His neck is bigger around than his head above the eyes. Bad sign. Eugenics is bad right?
