    Worth noting that what she said more than just hinting like the headline suggests. She’s directly stating it should be legalized

    “We have come to a point where we have to understand that we need to legalize it and stop criminalizing this behavior,” Harris said on an episode of the “All the Smoke” podcast released on Monday

    Also worth noting that as senator she also co-sponsored legalization in 2018 that would’ve fully legalized weed

      You’re getting too many downvotes. We need some kind of regulation to prevent phentanyl from getting into everything.

      • We need a robust addiction support network to go along with that, but, yes: illegalizing drugs causes more problems than it solves. Legally regulated and sold drugs ensure quality and provide confidence that what the consumer is getting (and ingesting) is what they think it is.

          Its cheap and potent so suppliers cut other drugs with it to increase potency and hide quality issues

              Street variant. The dosage needed to get high or overdose is so small that its much easier to smuggle in compared to other drugs

              AFAIK the medically its only really used for anesthesia which is usually used under controlled conditions and makes responding to very easy, especially when there’s OTC drugs that reverse opioid overdoses, though fentanyl can take multiple dosages to reverse
