Meth labs need good ventilation...

But that is one lesson this guy didn't learn.

At least in time.


"Boom"

And in the gene pool, there was much rejoicing.

Happens all the time, what is more dangerous is the ammonia and chlorine fumes

Someone should have paid attention in chemistry class.

I saw a documentary not too long ago where they showed the manufacture of coke, meth, steroids, and crack. The roid guy actually ran a pretty clean operation. Crack is stupid simple, but it's made from coke and there's some gross stuff involved in refining the active ingredient from the leaf. Meth though, takes the cake. I don't remember all the ingredients, but they included drain cleaner and a AA battery. And people put this in their bodies! No thanks. I'll stick to beer.

Or caffeine, or Adderal (meth is an upper, not a downer like alcohol).

Caffeine is good too. When I was in Iraq my breakfast usually consisted of a quart of slightly watered down black coffee.

I have a cousin who is a DEA Agent. I see him once or twice a year at family gatherings and always ask him "how's business?" His response is often something along the lines of how many meth labs they shut down in a certain number of weeks and the number is always staggering.

It sounds like they snuff them out in wholesale fashion, but it's quite obvious that they open up faster than he and his buddies can shut them down.

Drugs are a huge part of the serious decadence of society that we have been seeing for many years. There's too much money involved for the politicians to do anything about it.

Gov needs to get involved..find a way to help them make the stuff more potent...that way the junkies dont linger around for 8-15 years..give em a shelf life of 1-3 years doesnt sound like a bad idea to me.

Oh...and give the new, stronger stuff to pimps for free....project these parasites cleanly into the next demension for all I care.

The pharmaceutical companies make money from the meth business. So do social services, fire, emergency medical, police. Good for the economy. Reduces the unemployment figures too. This country is not what it pretends to be. It doesn't even try to be what it pretends to be. Now that Afghanistan is fairly stable, heroin use is back up, ditto, ditto, ditto.

Hmmm.... I guess in your thinking it's worth the loss of human souls to meth in order to keep the emergency services personnel employed?
