SOS from ISO

"We were alarmed when we lost over 40,000 innocent citizens to Covid. We have turned a blind eye when the same number of citizens have been lost to 'one and done' drugs." 

Just when you thought things could not get any worse with all the deadly drugs making over our porous southern border. Fentanyl, which according to government statistics, has killed over 40,000 citizens (many of them young) from the period of April 2020 to April 2021. That is more deaths than what is caused by Covid. Where is the alarm? Where is the funding? Where is the outrage? Nil. Nada.

But - as bad as fentanyl is (and it is very bad), there is a new drug on the streets known as ISO (which stands for isotonatazene). This new drug (which is a manufactured poison like fentanyl is) may be 10 times (or more) deadlier than fentanyl. So much so, naloxone (the reversal drug for overdoses), might not be effective against it. 

Right now, we have fentanyl coming over the southern border, disguised as candy. Just in time for Halloween. Who could do such a dastardly thing? How about China and Mexico. The cartels. Anything to get young people in America hooked on their poison. But - if some young people take too much (or in the case of fentanyl or ISO just a few particles), it will kill them. I guess in the minds of the Chinese or cartels, that is only collateral damage.

Our southern border has turned into nothing more than a witch's brew of bad things. Trafficking, gangs, illegals, terrorists, and deadly drugs. If I were president, I would shut that border down tighter than a drum until Mexico got control over what is coming our way. After 9/11, when the border shut down, all of a sudden, Mexico had a big drug problem. Why? That is where the poison stopped. Having an open border with Mexico, plays us for suckers. But Joe already knows that. 

After the midterms, hopefully we can get enough horsepower in Washington to turn this ship around. We are a weaker nation, due to our open borders. Weaker and more dangerous. We were alarmed when we lost over 40,000 innocent citizens to Covid. We have turned a blind eye when the same number of citizens have been lost to "one and done" drugs.
