My turn to rant: Meth heads screwed me again.

[fitz19d]

1st time is an old story.

But this time really gets me. Had a house that was 99% perfect under contract. ~230k Nice neighborhood/area/house/etc. Buyers agents just in case had us test for meth.... and out of right field. Cops home positive for it and above state levels. (Which in CO are more lenient than elsewhere.) We're sure it's from the foreclosure before he owned it. But now the poor guy already going through divorce is going to be ruined by this and let it forclose. (Since he can't fix it, and good lucky finding a buyer who can pay for it and no loan would be approved till fixed.)

For me sucks as my lease is up soon, so I'm either stuck back at my parents for a little while till we close or if I'm lucky renting month to month. Already getting killed on gas driving from Milliken to Lafayette. Also means while this house would work for my 210 Gallon saltwater tank, house we get may not accommodate it.

All because some asswipes probably didn't even cook, but were just smoking it into the vents/basement.

One of few things China does right. Death for hard drug use please.

Shit bra that stuff should be legal here in this fucked up state. But that does suck!

I'm more surprised that testing for drug residue is now a standard thing.

I'm all for people doing whatever to their body so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else... but meth, damn those people are just f'ing stoopid. I understand cocaine, marijuana, I can even understand heroin to an extent.. but meth? it's like licking toilets at the chili convention for a high.

How do you think cocaine is made, in laboratory conditions? Diesel fuel is one of the main separators and or gasoline mixed with LIME (powdered cement) . Yeppers, knock me off a few rails.

Now ya need to leave the bathtubs and nylons out of this. And any person should know that it takes lime to release the coca from the leaf. I did not stay in a holiday inn but I did spend 7 months in Bolivia.

If the feds have never pushed RICO the 1%ers would still have their hands in it and lot more QC. Keeping the white trash and cartels out of it. From what i read.

Isn't there a song about that? Put the lime in the coconut...., oh, wait... nevermind.

Fitz, that really sucks, for all involved. Good luck.

Years ago there was an article in National Geographic about cocaine, and how they make it. Involves all kinds of lovely things like diesel, kerosene, gasoline, acetone, and God only knows what else. Gives ya that nice tingling feeling in yer snoot.

You do realize that it's our very laws against drugs in this idiotic war on drugs that makes these increasingly dangerous drugs gain popularity, right? People want to get high and if you make something more expensive/illegal to get then someone will invent something else and they're not using high-end ingredients to create things with either. There's a window before 'the man' figures out what people are using to get high in order to make it illegal and during that time it's affordable & easier to get/use. If pot & cocaine were still legal you wouldn't see most of these nasty ass drugs being so popular today. Yeah war on drugs!

Sorry for what you're going through OP and I can understand your frustration but death penalty for someone who made a free choice to use their body how they seem fit? Seems like the epitome of government overreach to me.
