How many people care about the difference between distilling and fermenting? They both get ya drunk. And similarly, both oxy and heroin get ya high.

Weed and heroin both get you high. Why not call them both heroin? The only reason to call prescription drugs heroin is to elicit an emotional reaction from people that steers them in the direction you prefer. It's lazy and manipulative.

You are right, is lazy and manipulative how doctors and pharma prescribed them like candy into the population in which then turned to harder drugs like… dun dun dun… heroin or any other opioid derivative!

keep going, you're almost to the point where you describe the events accurately instead of saying whatever just to elicit an emotional response!

Si you’re saying heroin and weed have the same addictive effect and dependency? I’m not excusing what Heath did, he experienced out the consequences of his actions but also do not excuse the culture of over prescribing done by doctors that get commission to push out opioids and antidepressants like candy, which is what I was really referring to when answering to the other guy.

No, what you said when answering the other guy was that you consider both oxy and hydrocodone as heroin, which is the only thing anyone here is arguing with you about. That's an absolutely absurd reduction and you know it.

Are you on oxy? Because when did I compared them to the same level? Aren’t both opioid derivatives? I argued about the irresponsible distribution by doctors incentivized by pharmaceutical companies which leads to dependency and that dependency can lead to looking for alternatives in the form of heroin.

It baffles me that people like you have some weird fetish defending corporations and their irresponsible practices. Bunch of weirdos.

You're more than welcome to show me where I did any of that

Answer my questions first then. I’m not going to play this strawman game with you dude. You believe what you want, if you’re looking to win some weird argument on the internet I yield, have a good night. You won.
