lost my buddy to heroin

[TheRobbler]

Sorry for your loss sir.   Give your daughter lots of love and support to help pull her through.

I will. They just published his obit today and I think even though I knew it had happened, that drove the reality of it home for me. My daughter is still sober but she is isolating and that worries me. I don't know what to say to his family, we all loved him. He was not perfect but he was my buddy and I loved him. Thank you all for the kind words.

My daughter told the police where she suspected the stuff came from and they wanted her to wear a wire but she was afraid. I don't blame her. In this town, the bad guys are coming in from Chicago, Cleveland and Pittsburgh and they are VERY bad guys.

Get some expert advice. Talk to people where your daughter detoxed about how to best help her.  She needs help to stay sober while raising the kids alone.

Drug dealers sell to those wanting to buy.

Comments like that will bite you hard someday.

[Shuffler]

True but if we hang all the dealers then those people who "want to buy" wont be able to.  Win win, get rid of the scum that make money off people with problems and take a major step to help people with problems by taking the drugs away.

I have no issues with hanging drug dealers/criminals at all.

Have you heard different?

I'll be 62 next month. The only way it may have affected my family so far is a vehicle stolen with a pistol inside, some tools stolen from my truck. No idea if the criminals were on drugs and feeding their habbit or not.

Shooting them straight away is better.
If you break into someone’s house more than 3 times again away with them.

And if you have a liberal ideology its society fault go live in Sweden

I'm sorry to hear about your tragedy, my condolences.

As for drugs/drug dealer discussion.
Take a look at attached graphs:
Deaths in USA from alcohol / drugs

For reference couple developed nations in same timeframe:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/mortality-from-alcohol-and-drug-use-disorders?country=~DEU
 
In most deaths from drug overdoses rose a little to 2x over last 20 years.
In USA 8 fold since 1995.

Why ?

It's a case study how unregulated free market can turn great profit while killing its customers. And nobody bats an eye. Heck, even more potent pain killers are advertised and introduced as we speak.

she just got out of detox. they danced with that devil for 5 years. now his kids are fatherless and I will never hear him say, Rob, I love you buddy." again. breaks my heart man. 28 years old. I figure it could go one of two ways with my daughter...either she will use the loss as a reason to stay sober or she will use it as a reason to go off the rails. I tell you this, there is no way I could survive losing her like this. I am just glad that his family has faith, that will help. I don't and right now I am very envious of people that do. thanks guys. I should not have posted this on here, but I was in the middle of losing my mind. my grandbabies...my poor grandbabies

Sir, you are FAMILY!!! You need something just holler! If you have at least 100yrds Line of sight between me and the dealers...Have gun,will travel! Well, in 3 years or so..my Grandbabies are priority as of now!

Do those other countries have the illegals invading like we do? That adds greatly to the issue too.

[zack1234]

Nothing to do with illegals

This sort of money is in a shoe box under bed.

The Swiss and their nonsense need a good kicking

so what exactly are you trying to say pal? i have seen your ignorant and insensitive comments all over this bulletin board and the only thing I can think is that you are one of Hitechs buddies and you can get away with this crap. You are a total goof for saying that. wtf? How many pain pills you gonna down tonight old man?   

[Shuffler]

Ignorant? If you buy drugs, you are ignorant. You care for no one. Simple as that.

I pitty folks like you but I do not dispare over your self induced challenges.

[TequilaChaser]

Sorry for your loss, Booger/Scared.... I've myself lost too many friends and 1 relative to the same...so  understand what you are going through...

Shuffler, it is not that simple (black and white)....

Both of you should settle down...please

[NatCigg]

No matter to the hate, politics, greed, or fault.  The important thing is going forward. A terrible situation that will not go away. Love and support is a must.  She also needs to stay away from the dope.  Not sure how she could do that and raise a kid, that would take a queens effort.  I would suggest having her live with you , a treatment center or Both.  So sorry for your loss and pain.

 

[NatCigg]

And dont get mad if she relapses. If you get her, you got her and that is now day 1. And day 1 is always a good thing!
