        I think people can be blamed for their actions, not the gov't. Alcohol is worse. So are depression and prescription drugs!!

        Also, the heroine is being cut with Fentanyl and it's bad. Really potent. And it kills people.

        drugs made here or brought across the border due to black market demand. Black market makes it even more unsafe.

        And it is no doubt accurate to state these overdoses are from the drugs of death and unconsciousness - "prescribed pain killers"...

        More people OD on illegal drugs than are killed by firearms every year. Prohibition is working wonders.

        but rural areas are hugely Republican. How in the hell is this connected to Trump? Has he said one word about this?

        Republicans don't like kids dying from drug overdoses. Law and order. Build a wall. Stop drug traffic. Yes, he said.
