Swan_Vesta Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Well, It looks like nature's suceeding where the countless billions spent on drug enforcement have previously failed. A fungus has spread and ruined the crop of smack poppies in Afghanistan leaving addicts high and dry ...

melthebell Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 where man fails nature succeeds for bassman , one of the main reasons to make heroin legal "Hospitals are treating a growing number of drug users who have overdosed on heroin mixed with other substances by dealers because of a huge shortage of the opiate across the UK." "Users are overdosing on either adulterated heroin, or, in some cases, what has been found to be a combination of a powerful sedative, caffeine and paracetamol. Some have become unconscious very soon after injecting or smoking it, while others have reported vomiting, flu-like symptoms and amnesia, drug agencies say."
