Re: black market opiates

You may also witness a typical technique of divide and conquor being played out on another thread. We all could take the high ground, the moral absolute, the libertarian view that government has no business putting their collective brown noses in our drugs. Such a move requires immediate sacrifice and willingness to fight to the end, for it places us all over the criminal line. Taking a more practical view, we may claim a certain medical and lawful legitimacy and sacrifice those who do not meet our standards, those who use IOPs and have questionable motives, perhaps admitting enjoying some of the side-effects from their required medication. Wherever we draw the line, we are dividing ourselves against ourselves. We will willfully whittle away our own rights, thinking we are protecting them (see NRA). Who is like unto the Beast? Who is able to make war against him?
