My confusion here is over the concern about fentanyl.
Ex: Take someone who is an alcaholic but has little to no income. So when he
gets money, he buys the cheapest booze he can get. He gets some laced with too
much anti-freeze and dies.
I don't condider that a problem. He was dying anyway. If he had plenty of
money to get good booze, he still would have died.

I'm not applying a "right vs. wrong". I'm saying that someone who participates
in a risky habit has to accept that risk. That fentanyl increases those risks
does not make it a "crisis".

No matter who it is, if someone plays on a busy road and gets creamed by a
truck, he got what he earned. He put himself in harms way with a conscious
act.
