Skin-rotting drug ‘tranq’ infiltrates
big cities: ‘Zombifying bodies’

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 2/22/2023 10:59:47 AM

There’s a new drug in town — and it has deadly consequences. Xylazine — otherwise known as “tranq,” “tranq dope” and “zombie drug” — is wreaking havoc in major cities across the country with its devastating effects: It can literally rot the user’s skin. The substance, which seemed to first appear in Philadelphia before migrating west to San Francisco and Los Angeles, was used for cutting heroin, but, most recently, it has been discovered in fentanyl and other illicit drugs. While approved by the Food and Drug Administration for veterinary use, xylazine, a non-opioid, is not safe for humans,

Zombie Drug - Symptoms are "excessive sleepiness and respiratory depression, as well as raw wounds that can become severe and spread rapidly with repeated exposure. The crusty ulcerations, which can become dead skin called eschar, can result in amputation if left untreated". Same symptoms are an accurate description of what currently resides illegally in our White House, in Congress, and in all of the leadership of the Federal Communist Agencies. Fleshing eating monsters eating the flesh of our Country.

If you want to fix so many of current society’s ills, secure the border. The drugs pouring across in the US like a firehose enslave many into addiction. If you really want to help the homeless, stop the illegal drugs. If you want to address mental illness among the homeless, stop the drugs which contribute to some mental illnesses (paranoiac and/or schizophrenic behavior.) If you want to reduce crime, stop the drugs. Addicts steal to support their addictions. If you want to reduce violence among certain classes of people, stop the drugs. People have less control when under the influence. Families are destroyed by harrowing affects drugs have on heir members. There are many factors behind the huge surge in homeless populations, but I believe eliminating illegal drugs would be a huge step in improving the lives of the “unhoused”. If drugs and their easy availability aren’t addressed I don’t think any other approach will succeed.

The comments on rhe Post comment page make a interesting read…of the struggle between those that think illicit drugs are an absolute anathema to self and society, and those that believe illicit drug use should be solely the decision of an individual….this specific challenge is a microcosm of the bigger questions that have tyranny and anarchy at their extreme ends. Clearly, what we now have in place as controls is not working (fentanyl floods into the us) nor is reliance on individual self regulation (hordes of drug using homeless are increasing).. i know this…deeply…that illicit drug use threatens me and mine in identifiable and uncounted ways, and is incoherent with modern society. I hope we find a path that leads to a better future…the only ideas I have would not be acceptable

Xylazine is "wreaking havoc in major cities across the country with its devastating effects". Oh well, every crisis does seem to have an upside and culling the urban herd can be a beneficial exercise.

I don't think we will get a handle on this issue until people stop calling every drug injury or death an "overdose". Many of these incidents have nothing to do with "taking too much". E.g., I don't think the fentanyl death epidemic is because people wanted a dose of fentanyl, but just happened to get a bit too much. From what I understand, most of these are the result of intentional adulteration of other medications, both illicit and counterfeit, by suppliers. That means that EVERYONE in the supply chain, from the Chinese and Mexican operators to the American street hustlers, is guilty of INTENTIONAL MASS POISONINGS. These creatures are taking advantage of a substantial population that has physical or emotional problems from which they are seeking escape, to commit acts of murder on a massive scale. So, where are the arrests, public trials and executions of these perpetrators, and not just the media-touted "tons of drug seizures"?

I have a modest proposal: We simply publish the pictures and identities of the sellers of these poisons--like the old "WANTED" posters in the Post Office-- and let the friends and relatives of the addicts and the overdosed seek them out and, in their own creative ways, make them understand the wisdom of not dealing in drugs.

I have watched You Tube videos of the streets of Kensington, PA. Sadness that drugs are doing this to our people. There should be soldiers on our southern border to stop the flow of drugs from China and Mexico and Heaven knows where else. I agree with poster - not 'overdose.' They took a drug and the drug killed them.

FTA: Earlier this month, the San Francisco Department of Health announced that low levels of xylazine were found in the systems of four people who overdosed, suggesting that the substance can be hidden in drugs unbeknownst to the users.

Unfortunately, drug abusers don't just harm themselves. They also harm their loved ones who try to help them, often to no avail, and society at large which has to deal with the associated crime. I can't be sorry when the inevitable happens. If this new drug culls the herd, so be it. No one is forced to use street drugs and everyone should know the risks.

After less than two years in Texas, Tesla is moving its engineering headquarters back up to northern California, CEO Elon Musk announced Wednesday.  During a press conference alongside Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom, 55, the pair announced that the electric vehicle manufacturer would return to Palo Alto.  Musk, 51, moved Tesla down to Austin, Texas in the fall of 2021 over tax breaks, the cheaper cost of labor, and a battle between himself and local health officials.  At the time, Musk was adamant about his desire to reopen a massive manufacturing plant in Freemont, which was argued against by the Alameda County Department of Public Health.

Joe Biden acquired his job through a legal process. However, he did not earn enough verifiable votes to justify the certifications in six key swing states. This issue is addressed in my new book, but here is some of my reasoning. I have limited myself to one example of unverifiable votes for each of those swing states. Arizona At an Arizona Senate Committee hearing on January 24, 2022, we learned that precisely 95 percent of Maricopa County overseas military members (and their families) voted for Joe Biden. That is an amazing (as in phony) percentage, given that the overall county-wide vote was fairly even between Biden and Trump (51 to 49%).

The proposal asks the House and Senate Sergeant at Arms and the U.S. Capitol Police to take "such actions as may be necessary" to keep Trump from entering the halls of Congress forever.

However, this uptick would mark the biggest increase of American troops on the ground in Taiwan in decades.
