Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Yup. It's that way in Oklahoma too. It's to prevent you and me from going to 8 million different pharmacies and buying enough sudafed to make a batch of meth. Although, as much meth as we have in OK, I don't think it's working very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 JUST WONDERING HOW MANY 61 YR OLD FAT PEOPLE ARE METH PRODUCERS GABBY You might be surprised at the demographics of meth manufacturers. Not to mention the ones who pick up the supplies for someone else who is the meth maker, who's name is on the "do not sell" list beside every cash register at every pharmacy. 61 and fat still fits the description.

Gabby, we can all understand the frustration, but I'm afraid Lawman Mark is right. My daughter the probation officer worked Cobb County drug court before she got reassigned to the sex crimes unit a few years ago, and she could tell you that drug addicts come in all shapes sizes, colors, and ages, unfortunately. She was supervising people in their 70's, for Pete's sake. Truly pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barterin Bill Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 JUST WONDERING HOW MANY 61 YR OLD FAT PEOPLE ARE METH PRODUCERS GABBY Not too long age there was a piece on the local news telling people who had bought produce from a local roadside produce market to thow it away and not eat it. The old guy (who looked to be in his 60's and fat) was cooking meth in the back and selling it from his poduce stand. Old fat people need money too. The way the economy is now it's not only users that are cooking and like Mark said, supplying the ones who are cooking. They also busted a convience store here because the guy was stocking everything needed to make meth and selling it to the cookers no questions asked. It was a one stop shop for them.

Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 We have made numerous arrests of meth cooks and their "assistants" for buying more than the allowed amount of pseudoephedrine. They make the rounds and buy way more than medically needed. We are still unable to get on top of the epidemic. Sure, it's an imposition for normal folks, but the meth problem continues to grow and we need all the tools and help we can get. Meth is destroying this country.

Angry Ned Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 It looks like producing meth is the new moonshine business with a good portion of our population. Today moonshineing is looked with a somewhat oldtime nostalgic view; I'm wondering if cooking meth will someday have that same outlook.

SlicLee SASS #16638 Life Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 From what I remember, the govt forced the company that makes sudafed to remove that part which they claimed could make meth. We tried it after it came back on the market, one of my children had a cold and was flying back to school it didnt help like it used to. All in all we all tried it, even going to another drug store to no avail, did not take clogged nose symptom away. Since then, the drug trade in meth has grown and the use of sudafed has dropped. Typical govt reaction, like the shoe bomber etc, we take off our shoes. Now, once again, the dummies are at it, a drug i need which is for immediate relief, takes about 5 minutes to start getting relief instead of the other which is a timed release, takes 45 minutes for it to start to give me relief, has been removed by govt edict, that function is only used by drug addicts so the govt says you cant produce it.

GunClick Rick Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 The body builders just go to supplement store to get the ingredients.My uncle owned a supplement store and sold the heck out of the stuff,especially the energy stuff they took off the store counters.They buy it in bulk and mix it and then resale it.Anyway that's what they were doin when he owned the place,but of course the steroidal stuff took him 2years ago.

Pard, I didn't say guns were destroying this country. I said the logic behind the "solution" is misplaced. Like useless gun control laws, the "solution" punishes law abiding citizens without making a dent in the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 This solution HAS made a dent. It's not the be all and end all but it is a great help. Before, the scrotes were walking out of Wally World, CVS etc with huge bags in both hands crammed full with thousands and thousands of pills. This practice HAD to be stopped. It ain't about freedom or yours and mine civil rights. It's about whether we will continue to have a country. Or not. Plain and simple. I cannot seem to make some of you folks understand how DIRE the situation is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Steel Duke Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I understand your frustration. I have a unique view coming from both an EMS (Hospital based) and LE background, and while the Pseudoephedrine registry is a needed evil, the DEA is just now starting to look at the dispensing of multiple narcotics to seekers/abusers. It's common practice for a person to visit several ER's and acquire multiple Rx's for Lortab/Vicodin/Oxycontin and then not even be questioned by the Pharmacy staff filling the prescription. Here in Indy a central computer system is up and running and they're starting to put a stop to a long practiced abuse. BSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 McCurtain County had a huge drug bust a couple of years ago, including a pharmicist from Houston, TX. He was getting the sudafed from Mexico and sending it to the cookers here in the county. BTW, I know how the stuff unblocks sinuses. It takes the congestion from your nose and sends it down to a lower level. If I take it, then I can't pee for a week. Well, maybe not a week, but it sure makes it hard to go.
