I got one for you: Black people have always oversold their discrimination and been openly hostile to whites, even the "good old ones." It's just that whites pushed back and kept them in their place. This is what you get when you give them the benefit of the doubt. Discrimination makes sense when you live in reality, and no matter what the media tries to tell you, literally every single white person in this thread will cross the street to avoid a black guy more than a white guy.
As I've stated before, I'm not American, so my experiences with blacks are very limited, and you may be correct. But I'm also fairly certain they didn't seize random ships in Africa, sailed across the Atlantic Ocean, and stormed the beaches of North America. They were brought to the United States, and thus became an inextricable part of them.

I think you project your non-druggie/criminal rational thought and care for safety onto the kind of person that really does not give a fuck about that kinda stuff.
Drug-dealers are typically not exactly taking things that precisely unless it hurts them financially or could blow up, and they usually also dont have university-tier education (or really any education) on how to safely handle chemicals. Some guy with an IQ of 85 and drugs in his system is most likely still less competent than you even with a distraction. Add to that a generally dirty environment, and you get a pill-factory that may very well have shit-tier manufacturing tolerances.
I really think your are underestimating the skill of hobby chemists. My point was that even a sophomore college kid could do it, the actual dilution is not that difficult. There's a lot of money here and it attracts even comparatively well educated people. The entirety of LSD in the 80s was coming from like, one researcher I believe.

And yes, killing your customers is something that both blows up and harms them financially. Nothing will get your small basement raided faster than druggies dropping like flies. That isn't to say they suck, only the sucky part isn't going to be something that simple.

Seriously depends on which white guy and which black guy. If the black guy is some dude in a suit and tie (and not a pimp suit), and the white guy is some twitching tweaker, I'm going to cross the street to avoid the white guy. Making decisions based on only one single bit of information, like white/black is dumb, if you have other bits of information that outweigh the one. Bayesian inference is a much better mode of looking at things.

I'm sorry, my question wasn't clear enough - if someone had the means to actually produce such drugs, should said person even bother with fentanyl?
fentanyl isn't something you can easily cook up yourself at home from simple precursors like you can with methamphetamine. i dont think underground chemists making fentanyl are a thing at all, instead the stuff gets made by actual large scale biochem and pharma companies in china and imported to america from there.

I have a relative who is a highly trained professional in a very, very large pharmaceutical company, and you wouldn't believe the things they're able to pull off in their spare time. I remember said person, some years ago, bringing to my grandmother a plastic bag full of "homemade" painkillers which said relative made with a colleague.
 
not necessarily, lifeguards are trained to go in and rescue drowning swimmers without equipment
they're also taught about when and when not to go in like that though: you're supposed to avoid going in if the drowner is larger and heavier than you are, or if there's more drowners than lifeguards.
The main problem with drowners is they're stupid. They're literally drowning. They're so fucking dumb they can't swim. Any goddamn animal can swim. So drowners will literally drown you with idiotic thrashing around when you're trying to save them.

That sounds like an economic question to me. Anyone who has the means to do that, and the lack of ethics that it requires to sell it to junkies, is just going to make whatever will make them the most money. Because they could also make more or less anything else.

Drug dealers really couldn't give any less of a fuck. A few years back, Mexico dropped agent orange on some cartel marijuana fields. The plants on the fringes of the fields survived and were packaged for sale, anyway. Not long long after, kids in the US started showing up in emergency rooms, foaming at the mouth and having violent seizures.

Lesson of the day: buy your weed from your local hippy or redneck and support small businesses.

There's no color on a nigger, just a stench of desperation and unwillingness to do actual work, I'd rather walk by a "you skraight" with a polite "I'm good bro" than a tweeker every day of the week.
 
Local man is surprised that not everywhere on the internet is a safe space
I am pretty sure that is high quality bait.

The deliberately included tipoff is knowing the Sneed meme and deliberately misspelling it in a way nobody ordinarily would. Otherwise it is absolutely flawless as something an actually enraged normie would say.

Not familiar with AO, but per the VA, there is basically no evidence that agent orange, especially that dilute, would cause seizures that quickly

Disclaimer: Any argument that involves trusting the VA, believing the VA, tolerating the VA, or in anyway engaging with the decisions of the VA in a way that doesn't strictly involve doing the diametric opposite should be immediately disregarded, and the person responsible assumed to be an agent of the VA.

I have a feeling I'd believe you. Ask any college professor about the realism of the reactions in breaking bad and they'll do all but show you their lab.
