    Are heroin addicts required to present a prescription to get smack from the street corner dealer?

    You’ve an odd idea that only heroin is the only problem. Prescription drugs are one of the biggest.

    You’re suppose to be a lawyer. Know which drugs do require prescriptions and are as big if not a bigger problem.

    I am a lawyer which is why your pathetic attempts at deflection dont throw me off. The point is about black market heroin, not pills. Now stay on topic dear.

    Thinking Heroin is sold in drug stores is consistent with the accuracy of your views concerning guns and how criminals obtain firearms despite the penalties contained in 18 USC 922

    I am an attorney and like most of the other posters-save you-I know damn well heroin is not available at a drug store. I cannot help the fact that I picked Heroin for that reason, in case someone tried to weasel out of their pathetic arguments by changing the goal posts to prescription pills

    Your honestly leaves much to be desired. We get the fact that Trump haters often adopt gun control as a method of attacking those who supported Trump.

    You’re an attorney and think heroin is unrelated to prescription drugs ?
    Fact. Prescription drugs are the gateway drug to heroin. I admit, I was wrong, you’re not as enlightened as you claim you are.
    Nearly 80 percent of Americans using heroin (including those in treatment) reported misusing prescription opioids first. “

    Prescription drugs are the gateway drug to heroin for 80% of the users. Unbelievable you think there is no connection.

    That’s all pretty easy to understand. You have Trump, the least respectful president ever, the most efficient liar ever, the most corrupt administration ever, even by his own DOJ appointed prosecutor standards. It’s hilarious to think Trump would not be a target. Couple that to a party with 120 plus indictments admistrationly in 30 plus years that cuts its election success on the back of voter suppression and Russian meddling which it NOW SUPPORTS AND WELCOMES.

    But keep those false claims of patriotism rolling in......amazing.
    Even Mitch is on the verge of a big corruption scandal with his canbinet position holding wife. You couldn’t make this crap up for a class B movie.

    Such is of absolutely no relevance. The question presented to yourself pertained to heroin, and heroin exclusively. No other opioid-related substance, regardless of type or source is part of the question. Address the matter as it was presented to yourself.

    It’s obvious, you have less medical experience then science in general. When 80% of heroin uses come from prescription drugs, you’re obviously lost it seems. . You make these proclamations like you have authority when you really don’t have a clue. “Yourself .”

    How the addiction starts is not relevant to the discussion, as those who are distributing heroin on the streets and in back alleys are not licensed prescription pharmacists.

    I see nothing I’ve said is rebutted. Gun control advocates are not anti constitutionalist cause, after all, federal prohibition of firearm ownership by felons, under aged and insane, IS ALREADY GUN CONTROL. No “gun far all “ advocate can admit it cause narratives are more important then facts. That’s the gop in general. Facts and science have no place in their decisions. Trump epitomizes, the BS a minute mentality of the far right, which is the entire gop.
