2nd overdose in the past week today.

One in Rockland County last week and another one today in Brooklyn.

Sad!
But we dont have a drug problem.

We def do, we also have driving problems, internet problems, and gambling problems. But significantly less than the national average. Not even close.

Since there are no reliable statistics, I don't see how one can make such a statement. Anecdotally, however, I guess it depends on what you're exposed to.

It's not a race or a zero sum game.
We should be doing our best to bring the number closer to 0.

I obviously spent a couple moments before posting that crunching some rough numbers. I was extremely loose with the stats to ensure it wasn't an incorrect statement.

I agree 100%. I just can't stand those that say we don't give a damn and make it like people are dropping like flies.

Saying its sad does nothing to change the reality. And since you brought it up, maybe you want to share how you spend your days.

It helps me express and share my deep sorrow. Sorry for being selfish. Now stop trolling.

Those that know me, know that i am very involved in preventative education and in helping addicts. I can provide references if necessary.

So, yes, i say this from a position of some authority.

Hnad-wringing and statements that add nothing may as well just be +1's.

And since we are pointing fingers...your turn...

Can I assume that you both did at least a couple moments research?
Based on your statements the answer is no. Do that and come back to me.
