"People take this stuff to get high and wonder why their teeth and brains melt."

College kids take this stuff to study for tests.
Long haul truckers take this stuff to stay awake.
Special forces take this stuff to keep them alive.

Yes, it is evil, if abused. And it is especially evil if made badly. And anything you can say about the effects, pictures of people who can reach into their mouths and pull out a handful of teeth, kids being exposed to fumes, whatever, is happening right now while it is illegal. Hmmm. Meth addicts don't wonder why they are in the shape they are in, don't kid yourself.

Like I said a while ago to another poster (whose posts on other subjects I still often recommend), the approach we are taking is working really well. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

A guy that lived in the apartment next door to us in Salt Lake ran a meth lab until he got scared out. The fumes at night were terrible.

Cops didn't do a damn thing about it.
