This crap is crazy chemicals that totally effs people up. Not even ganja should be free... taxed to all tarnation like cigs, sure.

    not to the general poulation PP but to addicts...addicts are aready aquiring the subtance,,,and aquiring it at huge risk to the general population...

    'legal" meth would not be so dangerous and be made by safer cleaner processes than the bootleg meth,,,harm reduction it a better way

Heroin and alcohol users have rotten teeth, too.( look at pictures of Keith Richards circa 1970's ). Paint sniffing destroys a lot of lives and whole communities, too. I bet that alcohol has killed more people than all the other drugs in the world. We have a romantic view of moonshining and bootlegging, but you could get shot coming across an illegal still in those same woods that they are cooking meth in nowadays.
    meth usage and the horror stories you hear associated are about 90% accurate...........wanderer

    i saw on 60 minutes where our US Air Force was giving pharmicist speed to our pilots. the general said there are no laws in war.........they get our soldiers strung out on the stuff, they come home, the family destructs, they lose their jobs, go to prison and some even die. and the government dont care.......................wanderer

    amphetamine use by our Military has a long history ...lots of amphetamine use in Korea,

    amphetamines have medical uses...but addicts are addicts,,and thy will get there stuff regardless...so I say give the speed freaks all the speed they want ....let'em snort and shoot thier brains out...but let's put an end to the dangerous illegal labs,,,labs that in themselve are endangering the general population....we could do this quickly and cheaply by giving addicts cheap easy access to clean controlled product.

    also have needle exchange for the addicts,,,help keep dirty needles off our streets,

    Couldn't tell you SMS, you looking to cook some up? You could probably pick up loads of cold pills if you go through Canada.

    I don't know, I only remember seeing the Ozarks trail fuel in the Wally world store. Besides, you can't buy enough cold pills in Wally world, the check-out scanner will go off .

    Loads of cold pills intercepted on the Canadian border last year or so.

    I'm a homebrewer, these things interest me. It was something I read. When I first read about it, the scanners were set to recognize several of the ingredients needed to make the meth, sort of recognizing the recipe. Now, some stores limit the amount of cold medicine and/or keep it behind the counter. Similar to the lack of polar pur at REI. Farmers are having a tough time because cookers break into tanks for one ingredient, I think its the anhydrous ammonia, but I am not too sure on that one.

    Yes, that was it, ammonium nitrate. It was a while ago, but the article talked about how increased scrutiny by police (because of the potential for explosive use of the ammonium nitrate) led to the realization that meth abuse was a growing rural problem. Something like the farmers started locking up the trucks/tanks and were suffering break-ins, but the amounts stolen were small.

    Here's the ingredients for one form of meth I copied from a website. I won't post the link because I don't think rock nor troll nor any of the behind-the-scenes mods would appreciate it. This is crazy shlt.

    3 Gallons of Anhydrous Ammonia
    40 lithium batteries (allthough ive never tried it, ive heard you can replace the betteries with lithium pills)
    4 gal of starter fluid
    5000 Ephedrine pills
    2 liter GLASS bottle
    long rubber hose
    bottle of sufuric acid
    5 gallon bucket
    ball of alluminum foil

    Ganja is one thing, heck practically acceptable where I grew up, but these hardcore drugs have no place in society. People will sell their souls to get high on crazy stuff like this.
    How many more of our soldiers must die in Iraq?

    I live in a rural area where Meth is a big problem. Not only the farms are being hit, the local co-ops are being broken into.... we're not talking small quantites! When one of these labs are busted the clean-up is dangerous and costly. Another side affect comes from the fact that a lot of these places are rentals. When one of these labs move on, usually because the area is getting to hot for them, the property is then rented to someone who has no idea what it was used for. The new renters can develope all kinds of medical problems (especially children), depending on how badly the place is contaminated. The small, local officals and comunity members have been reeling from the impact this has had on both the budgets and families in the area.
