Really sick of stupid people, drug addles folks should be allowed to die, no narcan and dealers should be shot on site. A real easy solution. The public should not be made to pay for the vices of a few.
We do have a drug problem…..kudo’s to Chief Merkel and Vergennes. It’s telling when the smallest city has to have a drug team on their police force. it’s telling that the state is doing nothing, no wait, correction, they want us to become drug dealers?
How out of touch and focused on money do the have to be to ignore this problem?
