cnn.com/2018/05/25/health/nebraska-fentanyl-bust/index.html >The Nebraska State Patrol seized nearly 120 pounds of the drug fentanyl -- enough to kill about 26 million people, according to estimates by the US Drug Enforcement Administration.
>On Thursday, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts announced the bust, considered the largest in the state's history and one of the largest in the United States. Authorities seized 118 pounds of fentanyl during a routine traffic stop April 26 on Interstate 80 near Kearney. Troopers became suspicious of a semi-truck driving on the shoulder lane, searched the vehicle and found drugs in a hidden compartment, according to Nebraska State Patrol Col. John Bolduc.
>At first, troopers believed they had found mostly cocaine, but further testing showed it was all fentanyl. Troopers did not immediately test the drugs due to the "dangerous nature of the substance," the Nebraska State Patrol said. The drug can be a threat to anyone who comes into contact with it as it can be absorbed through the skin or accidentally inhaled. The driver of the truck, Felipe Genao-Minaya, 46, and passenger, Nelson Nunez, 52, both of New Jersey, were arrested on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, the agency said.
>The value of the drugs is estimated at more than $20 million. Fentanyl is a powerful opioid that is 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine and 30 to 50 times more potent than heroin. Though fentanyl can be prescribed by a physician for pain relief, the vast majority of overdose cases are thought to be the result of illicit production and distribution. What are they gonna do with all of it?
you don't have a clue how much of an epidemic it is, the deliveries are usually in a few hundred kg's not pounds still too small of a bust. this is a prop show for media
Fentanyl is pumped into rich and middle class communities.
The chinks are targeting whitey.

why would you drive on the shoulder when you have $20 million of drugs in your vehicle?
Cameron Bell
Mexicans user, mexicans
Isaac Perry
No shit.
Also why a fucking big rig. Those things are subject to ramdom inspection by dot cops and all kinds of little things (driving like a retard aside) can get you on the radar.
A couple normal looking middle aged white people who carefully follow traffic laws have basically a zero percent chance of getting pulled over

Brandon Parker
guessing it came from China
Gabriel Flores
One of your fellow white people speaking out against oppression. You have a problem with that goy?
He's a dreamer SenpaiAnon. He just needs sanctuary how dare the police even glance at him twice that's raycis!
Isaac Rogers
So does fentanyl itself have a market or is it used as a mixer to make shitty downgrade heroin/coke more powerful or what?
I cant imagine most junkies have the means, especially those who just want to get fucked up, to access laboratory measuring systems to get their dose without dying
Ethan Kelly
meth is payback for crack fentanyl is payback for greedy bastards that pushed crack and meth???
is it odd that they use that phrasing to describe it? i mean, people dont usually measure drugs in potential amount of people it can kill. since this is one bust, and i assume there are other distributors, i wonder if its safe to assume theres enough fentanyl to kill the planet as many times over as we have nukes.
Jackson Stewart
Why even bother busting them? Let the fags sell it as coke and look the other way when people start dropping dead

There are more potent venoms than synthetically produced opioids
Ethan Bailey
sounds reasonable, but im not gonna go around trying to collect snakes and spiders to purge a city.

China is basically conducting opium warfare on the US right now. It's basically them trying to break our country down even farther than it already is. China uncensored has a video on it. Why don't we just fucking nuke the dam chinks already?

Half the country wanted a spy for the Chinese to win the 2016 election, user, Sir.
