Well this is absolutely frightening in so much that Trump is going to force his way into Canada via military operations by claiming fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction.
Anyone remember the Bush Administration and WMDs they said were there but never were?
Elbows up Canuck’s. The time to prepare is most likely closer than we think.
Maybe it’s just me, but I really don’t think sarin gas and strong opiates are same-same.
I dunno if anybody has been to a hospital in recent times, but it sure isn’t sarin in that IV after surgery…
In all fairness
Satin gas probably hasn’t killed even a fraction of the amount of oeoppem that opioids have killed. I’m unsure about exact numbers here but I remember the infamous sarin gas attack in the Tokyo metro which killed dozens of people, not millions. Sarin is toxic as fuck and theoretically a kilo of it can kill a country or so, but it is very hard to practically apply to the point where releasing it in a closed metro it still “only” killed a few dozen people at best
Opioids ate great for end of life pain management but then they start giving it for everything up to a headache, apparently, ignoring how extremely addictive it is
Having said that, fuck Trump with his bullshit comparison and ignoring the fact that fentanyl mostly travels into Canada, not out of. All just presences. Prepare.
