A Disturbance in Baltimore

Apparently Mally's Oxycontin usage puts more of a strain on the domestic supply chain than does Jatki.

I disagree with your statement that legalization will make drugs cheaper and people won't need to rob and steal to get their drugs. With Heroin at $3 per bag today, I cannot see CVS selling it any cheaper when Oxy cost in excess of $30 per pill. Look at the price of Legal Pot where it is legal. On an economic basis, all your assumptions are based upon cheap, legal drugs and I contend Legal drugs will certainly not be cheap.


Oxycontin is expensive because the government regulates it as a controlled substance. You have to show up in person at the pharmacy and present your prescription in person to have it filled. Furthermore pharmacys are given a set allotment every month and once that allotment runs out it is tough shit for anybody that needs their prescription filled.




That's total bull. I've had many prescriptions for oxycontin when I got out of the hospital and some since, never once did they say"oh we've used up our allotment". There were a few times they were out but would have some tuesday(or whatever) when our next trtuck comes in. Since I know my pharmacist I'm gonna ask to confirm it.


A NYC cop was shot yesterday by a black man & is in a coma. This is the 5th NYC cop shot in the last 5 months.

Far more white people have been killed by other white people but Hoops only complains about black cop killers that only affected 5 people. So we can use our resident right wing's logic to conclude there is nothing to get upset about here unless you are a racist. Hoops must have race problems like that Sharpton guy.

Does PJ disagree that 400 blacks were killed last year in America by cops. Does PJ disagree that 400 blacks were murdered last year in Chicago alone, the great majority being killed by other blacks.

Blacks killing blacks is a huge problem, while cops killing blacks is a small problem. PJ and most Liberals prefer to spend most of their energy on the racially charged, yet far smaller problem.

black thugs dont collect a salary from taxpayers. Police do. Hence, i dont hold both groups accountable to the same standard. My IQ is too high to do that.

and lets be honest....Boilerman doesn't believe his own BS either. Far more people were shot by cops in America than ever succomed to the Ebola virus but Boilerman shit his pants about the latter for weeks on his board.

Whites make up 5 times the black population, so it is disingenuous to say that more whites commit murders. Blacks who make up 13% of the population committed 43% of the murders in the US. The largest cause of death for young black males is homicide by other blacks. In baltimore 56 of the 63 murders this year was black on black or 88% of the total even though they only make up 60% of the population.

The black population must come to grips that they are the cause of their problems. In Baltimore over 60% of blacks families are single parent. Again a problem of their own making.

Criminals who attack cops almost always go to prison. But thug policeman who murder, assault, or profile American citizens - in our name -are almost never found guilty.

Hence the justifiable outrage.

Are looting, throwing rocks, and burning buidings also "justified"?


I understand. Let's spend 99% on our energy on 1% of the problem. What a wonderful idea.
