        Let me reintegrate.. I actually agree with you. I am a firm believer that crack was a tool used by the Reagan administration to help keep oppressing minorities and poor people. I should have stated that.

        hearbeaking. No parent should ever go through this. I can't imagine what he was going through while "zipping" her up. R.I.P.

        Awful. Can’t say I’ve ever heard of Xanax being a gateway drug to Heroin, but very sad nonetheless

        It does the same thing. Makes them forget, whatever they forget. It’s just as addictive too.

        No. We shouldn’t. Alcohol is legal. I’m was talking about the high itself. Alcohol isn’t anywhere near what Xanax, pain pills, and heroin’s affects are.
