Rainbow Fentanyl

 09.27.2022

Another death threat hits the streets. Another designer drug with a name and appearance sure to lure. Yes, the war on drugs, again, has a brand new nemesis. Be must warned...again. This is no joke.

My thoughts, viewed as a long time recovering alcoholic that has had the luxury of experimenting with drugs and surviving, is a big ol' NO to the temptation, typically peer pressure driven. The desire to fit in. Addiction is a dead end street, often one way. 

Drug Cartels south of us, driven by nothing but power and greed, are  not concerned with your family that may be addicted, injured, or killed by their efforts. It's all about their economic outcome. 

Remember "Breaking Bad"? It was a well done, superbly written and acted, portrayal of how a popular TV series sends a message to the masses of how an initial money making endeavor can manifest itself into the deep, dark world of addiction for profit.

SAY NO TO DRUGS has long been a mantra we as adults have heard for many, many years. School programs, federal, state and local law enforcement, have joined together for years to put forth joint efforts to educate. And for a good reason. Even in elementary school in the 60s there were school wide programs showcasing the dangers.

These new Rainbow pills are designed to lure and entice. They mimick the colors of Skittles, Sweet Tarts, Fruit Loops, and other sweets. 

Talk to your kids, beginning st an early age, and don't let up. Maybe by the time they bury a couple of friends they'll appreciate your hard messaging.

I know this is late compared to my daily posts. Please forgive. I'll try to tighten up.

Thank you for stopping in.
