Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d Well that's a buzz kill!
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d This is a growing problem (heroin addiction) Kids who are into sports can get very intense these days (clubs, playing year round, core training, personal trainer), this has led to an increase in sports injuries. Doctors prescribe oxycontin/oxycodone . . . then when they stop the prescription, the kids turn to heroin as a substitute. This is happening through a whole cross section of the community . . . good kids from good families are getting addicted to heroin. (Not saying this is how all the kids are getting hooked, but one of the reasons heroin addiction has become a growing problem, especially in the burbs)
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d And don't get me started about Beaverton and Lake Oswego! http://digitaljournal.com/life/lifestyle/typical-heroin-user-in-america-is-a-white-woman-in-the-suburbs/article/384981
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d It's hard to think that doctor prescribed drugs are the real gateway drug.
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d I hear we are going fix some of this. Make some of them (drugs) legal. Geez, what a plan.
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d Really? You mean drugs that are opium based are not an introduction to other opium based drugs?
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d Could you expand on the heroin legalization?
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d Wow, indeed. Doesn't anybody proofread anymore? "The proliferation of rogue pharmacies that dispense CPDs without a prescription and do not comply with pharmacy laws and standards will continue to be a public health and safety," the report added.
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d The gateway to getting a prescription is getting sick. Sickness should be illegal. Clean up all the sickos. When you get pneumonia, be a man. Tough it out and don't bother the doctor.
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d If we just did better at handling illness, this wouldn't happen.
Re: Oregon ranks fourth in the country in the percentage of residents using illegal d Just take a walk through rural Oregon and you would know this is true.
