Random Soapbox for Saturday 4/25/15

I don't mean to go off on a rant here, but ...

... what the Flakka!?!

This is the kind of stuff that is only supposed to show up on fictional super-hero shows ... that is, drugs that can make you lose your mind, paranoid to the point that you strip naked, trying to flee from the bugs you are convinced have infested you underneath your skin, with a sense of invincibility and a super strength that defies tazers, etc. etc.

Designed by sickos, apparently in the same labs that brought us bath salts, the drug (officially Alpha-PVP but also known on the street as "gravel" due to its similarity in appearance to the items covering the bottom of your kids' fish tanks) is now making its way from southern Florida to a city near you.  As I understand it, folks are using it as an additive to their existing drugs (like sprinkling a little on that cigarette) ... and then going bat sh!t crazy!

On the heels of the druggie-gone-zombie that was eating people's faces off on the exit ramps down in Miami (note:  google it ... that was an actual news story and NOT a promotional stunt for the return of the latest season of The Walking Dead), this is making me want to hasten the plans to build the front yard fence and reinforce the back yard fence and go all agoraphobic right quick.

If only we had succeeded in legalizing marijuana so everyone looking to get high could just be sitting around moving slowly, laughing loudly and eating aggressively.  Oh well ... opportunity missed ...

NOT ONLY FLAKKA ... ALSO THE BUDDER:
