Youre absolute and utterly ignorant. Opioids do not kill (edit: disclaimer, they can kill, but kill very few regular using addicts), this is why you see OLD heroin addicts. Seriously, do some reading and get a little education before making blanket statements. Your ignorance is profound. Your stupid, myopic, idiotic, religious agenda is obvious.
The real kicker here is that the drug manufacturer (Purdue Frederick Company) was, a little over a week ago, found guilty in a very large ruling (over half a billion dollars) in which they admitted the drugs were fraudulently marketed as being less addictive and subject to abuse when compared to other drugs. They admitted that they wrongly marketed the product and subjected millions of people to something more harmful than they perceived as through the marketing campaign.
And the op who had a legit prescription initially which became habit-forming (remember, he was taking it under the guise that it was marketed differently) is the "criminal" in light of the major case against Purdue and execs.
Food for thought.
