How much effort is going into identifying and arresting prolific murderer(s)?

Selling somebody drugs doesn't cause their death.
Can't fix stupid, Ski.
You don't?
You're absolutely right.....................................as long as they just place them on their mantel to look at!
Yeah, it was just a coincidence.......................it was actually the bacon & eggs they consumed that morning that did them in!
Do you think the current war has been effective?
Do you think the heart attack somebody has is caused by the pig farmer and the egg farmer which made the bacon & eggs he/she ate?
These people made their own choices to take the drugs. The consequence was death. It is not on anybody but them.
Pretty hard to tell as we have no way of knowing how many would have died otherwise!
So I guess the bottom line is none of the five people who died in Abbotsford on Friday did so as a result of the drugs consumed!
That's about the stupidest statement on here today. Why don't you include Henry Ford, Walter Chrysler, John Deere?
Call it what you want but it's just as deadly as murder. I'm not one for getting hung up in semantics!
Actually it parallels your bizarre logic exactly. Is the provider of the weapon or method of death responsible for the providee's actions? You are arguing that the drug dealer is responsible for the death of the user. If a guy buys a gun and blows his brains out, is the gun seller responsible?
Except there is one basic difference if you can understand it. The guy buying the gun doesn't generally buy it (there are rare exceptions) to blow his brains out. What other purpose besides consumption or resale does the guy buying drugs have?
Probably not a whole lot given how the Robert Picton thing went. He could have easily been caught much sooner. I guess the authorities haven’t learned,
As for overdoses, it’s not like someone forced these people to take these drugs. Also, the dealers do have an incentive to keep these people alive. They need customers to stay in business, just like legal businesses do. So long as there is a supply and a demand this problem won’t be going away,
Which isn’t a crime anymore. That was a pointless law if ever there was one. Impossible to enforce.
They did seek out and buy the drugs. Whoever sold it to them is guilty of selling an illegal substance, not murder.
I doubt doctors and nurses are going to check if the person has done it before. If they do, quite a few first timers will die while waiting for that check to be done. That’s just the impractical part of it. The fact that it’s totally immoral is another thing.
My step sister did just that.
Consumption. It’s not like they don’t know the risks. They know the drug may kill them, just as smokers and drinkers know that those legal options may kill them. They still go ahead and buy.
I think when it comes to "mental wattage", Bones, I can compete with you any day.
Sorry I misunderstood. I was under the misconception that they consumed the same drugs that were sold to them. Mea Culpa!
This thread is starting to get a little ridiculous. I was using the practical meaning of the term "murder" not the legal one. Of course any dimwit realizes once it gets to court (if it does) the charges would be diluted to manslaughter or maybe endangering with intent to do bodily harm. One of the reasons why this sh*t continues while kids are dying!
I think so!
I think so!
It wouldn't ever get to court as any type of murder charge since it is not murder. And I would be careful about calling people dimwits. You know the saying about living in glass houses.

LOL This is a good one.
Who did I call a dimwit? I believe I said I could "match wits".
Probably for good reason.
How you going to charge somebody that is dead??
The resuscitation would be done long before they ever got to a hospital and they do keep pretty good records on that kind of thing.
Sorry to hear that and that she didn't get the type of support that would have prevented it. Depending how shitty thing get that might become a lot more common so passing a law might not even be needed anymore.
You can get a prescription so it isn't that hard and every tow has heroin users so there is always an alternative supply.Probably for good reason.
