Waging the war on drugs like the war on terror is going to have unintended consequences.

Really if you are fighting an inanimate object or abstract concept then you have already lost. You're the drunk boxing a lamp post at that point - your idiotic flailing will only hurt yourself.

Almost like another famous Don fighting windmills.

Cocaine is not disrupting our society. Legalize it? Focus on Heroine and Fentanyl, they are disrupting our society. To put in into perspective:

Vietnam war, 10 years, 60k Americans KIA

Fentanyl, 100k Americans dead per year!

johng•5mo ago
People are overdosing constantly off fentanyl laced cocaine. Why is it laced? Is it on purpose or accident? Is it the local dealers doing it, or the cartel? Either way something has got to change :(
slau•5mo ago
It’s on purpose. Search Engine, the podcast, has a two part episode on why: Why are drug dealers putting fentanyl in everything? [1]. I didn’t know there was fentanyl in weed before this episode.

Short answer: junkies are always looking for next greater high. A occasional dead customer isn’t that much bad rep for a dealer. It’s a calling card; a proof he’s got the good stuff. It’s not the cartels doing the lacing. It’s the middlemen and the final dealers.

I am wrong here. While I stand by, that Cocaine is used mostly recreational, Crack is disrupting our societies.

>Off-Topic: Most stories about politics

Can't imagine this will foster a decent tech/hacker discussion...

Have strong feelings and thoughts on this, but there is certainly more politics in the feed than there was before.

I don't know about anyone else, but I come here specifically to avoid these sorts of stories.

metalman•5mo ago
not so quick, the information used to determine and perform the "strike" was ALL gathered useing software driven equipment, it therfore is on topic, especialy considering that there is strong evidence that these narco boats are crewed by people who are often coerced by or somehow tricked and indebted to the actual drug king pins and that there may be no humans in the loop, and most definitly there is a strong push to fully automate this sort of action, in international waters and airspace it is quite different than bieng asked to bear witness to something written useing a word processor, this will shape our world, and will scale up, and down skynet beta

Isn't drug running generally not a capital offense? This seems a lot like murder.
