    One more thing to worry about. I would almost bet that if someone (another kid) offered my kid "candy" at school - she would take it.
    I guess I will add this to the warning list. :(

    Yes, thank for letting us know. Hopefully other parents will stop by and see your post.

    You know, how is this necessary (do meth addicts really care what it taste like). Candy drugs? It's just creepy. Ugh, drugs are a scourge on society that just won't go away. All the lives ruined it is sad to consider, someone trying to cause more use by flavoring them.

    Outlawing drugs was one of those stupid, puritan things this country did wrong.

    Legalize and regulate.

    Then, all of a sudden, it's not big business anymore. Or rather... we could decrease the national deficit with it. End the war on drugs, and you take out idiotic prison sentences for possession of an ounce of marijuana, AND you're making money off the people that just HAVE to have it.

    As far as flavoring drugs goes... haven't you heard of flavored liquors? Strawberry vodka, etc? I mean... if people really want to get drunk, they don't need flavors, but I want my alcohol to TASTE good.

    I'm not saying that drugs are good. I do, however, think that more people would be willing to get help for drugs if they didn't face a felony jail sentence for askign for hellp.

    Many moons ago, the Chinese had an unbelievable problem with opium addicts. They don't have that problem today. Why? One reason. Executions. Anyone caught with opium got their heads lopped off. Long lines of dopers getting their heads lopped off and everyone in town watching.
    I say legalize weed, and execute the meth addicts. Ya, I believe that would do the trick and end the problem.
    Oh, but that is horrible and cruel and mean and nasty you say. If that is your reaction then I say you really don't know the nature of meth and meth addicts. And they are really just killing themselves, but slowly. Too slow for me. I say do everyone a big favor and just expidite themselves imposed suicide, then we can keep our lawn mowers, power tools, car stereos, yard furniture, garden hoses, and anything else left lying around that the vampires snatch in the wee hours of the morning.
    I HATE TWEEKERS! ALL GETERED UP AND READY FOR ACTION! EXECUTE THEM ALL!:D

    There are legal drugs - alcohol and nicotine. Look at all the damage they cause.
    All the taxes and regulation cannot control the damage they do.
    But the lawyers are making money off the law suits.

    Someone ask - why flavor this drug. It is to get young kids hooked. It looks like pop rocks and even pops in their mouths like that candy. Kids don't know that they are doing meth. I think it is disgusting.
    As far as legalizing drugs... I don't know. Meth is cooked in a lab somewhere and killing pretty much all those who get hooked.
    Pot... I think it is natural and it's uses can be good - like for cancer patients.

    I just know that right now - I have a young child that loves candy - so this is a concern. It really scares me.

    Maybe the government can save money on the executions as well by allowing all you good law abiding citizens to kill the meth addicts for them with the guns under your pillows. Actually they could make money by charging people for the opportunity to hunt down and kill them in some deserted town or game park. Kind of like that movie Running Man. Plus it will give you all target training with your semi automatics so when the baddies come, or it is time to overthrow the government you aren't all out of practice. :D

    I just read the USA Today article. I think this is actually a real concern. Not only are they cooking it with a strawberry flavor, but chocolate and other soda flavors.
    This new form is moving from west to east across the country.

    I'll open the first hunting range. Zebra painted jeeps and all. Bonus points for spear kills. Good idea!

    Will there be a bow or black powder season? I am all for the dealers getting it this way. They (dealers) do nothing but ruin lives in order to profit financially.

    I honestly can never tell if you are joking or not. I have some sympathy for users, but seriously the dealers are scum of the earth.

    I was referring to Mag's post. He wants them all beheaded. Dealers, users, crooked cops caught with it, your brother, your aunt. Everyone. I was just reminding you not to forget the users. You can shoot them too!

    Excon. Hello. You are wrong.

    NW, you have every right to be concerned.

    Matt, Skell was reacting with full sarcasm to Magprob's post.

    Skell, actually I wouldn't mind getting in on that one. It would be motivation for me to finally apply for a license and purchase a gun. I would not leave anyone out either. That concept would be rather fun and has the potential to make Magprob scads of money.

    magprob. Many of your posts are filled with violent thoughts. Most recently, this one and the Paris Hilton one. Why are you so full of rage and hate? Are you running low on your Spam supply? Please go shopping and restock your shelves.
