The numbers are horrifying, but drug overdose death statistics can't fully convey the crisis ravaging America, so DailyMail.com has documented the suffering in some of the worst-affected communities.
There were 107,622 deaths from drug overdoses in the US in 2021, an increase of nearly 15 percent from the year prior, and shocking national trends show few signs of the crisis abating.
Just two milligrams of fentanyl - the amount that fits on the top of a pencil tip - is deadly. Despite successful nationwide stings to bust dealers, authorities admit there's no end in sight for the epidemic.
The animal sedative Xylazine - known as 'tranq' - is now exacerbating the crisis.

I feel bad saying this because it is so inhuman, but the problem may be solving itself. One could not live like that for very long before getting help or dying. Their choice, just as it was their choice to use the drugs in the first place, or not use them.

Between the Democrat led open borders for tons of illegal drugs to enter and the defunding of the Police in Blue cities we are managing to kill off a lot of young people. And if this doesn't work the forced Covid vaccinations should finish a bunch more off.

There are many excuses. But only one reason - Godlessness.

If you watch OPLive on REELZ network on Friday and Saturday night, this wouldn't suprise you one bit. Last night a couple got pulled over in SC with their 3 year old child, every drug you can think of was found in the car some right next to the child's seat. Take them and the homeless move off the streets, pen them in and give them all the drugs and liquor they want. Feed them army slop.

This should be laid at Biden’s feet. He owns it. He and Mayorkas.
Fentanyl, made in China, then sent to Mexico where it is incorporated into a number of preparations and pills that are then carried across our southern border.

Just a quick nit pick about #7s comment...The best military chow I ever had was at army mess halls. Top notch stuff, and all you could eat. Air Force stuff was good, but army was better.

Identify the factory location in China. Tell Xi this is unacceptable and we WILL NOT permit ut.
If nothing is done, level the factory with a dozen cruise missiles.
Tgey are attacking us with poison and bioweapon attacks. We need to stop playing the fool.

A heartbreaking scene for the parents. This is the darkest side of America and no serious attempt is being made to fix this tragedy. This should not happen in America

Thanks, Obama. He thought it was okay to legalize marijuana. It is just a stepping stone in attitude.

Human debris that cannot be fixed. Close the border and execute drug smugglers and dealers on the spot.

It is a big mistake to call these "overdoses." They ought to be called poison doses. People are supplying and others buying unknown chemicals of unknown concentration and ingesting or injecting it. They have no idea what they are doing. In many cased the chemicals kills them or permanently harms them. This stuff is poison and anyone supplying it ought to be charged thusly and those taking the chemicals put in rehab for self-harm.

Capture some shipments, lace them with cyanide and release them to the drug using public. Problem solved.

I agree with you #4. Drug addiction is voluntary and a condition of the weak. I think of it as God just taking out the trash.

We should stop issuing NARCAN to police, fire, and first responders. If the addicts want to dance with death, let them finish the waltz.
