POPSThe Opinuary Column: Freedom isn't Free (or Alive)
It fought its addiction to Crystal Meth (Cheaper Than Coke But Still Not Free) and Tobacco (the first carton for soldiers was Free, but after that, not so much) with grit and determination, which it had in buckets (buckets that were Free but had to be returned when it was done with them). In the weeks before its death, the Opinion was often observed meditating on a litany of uncomfortable realizations: it had discovered that its apartment wasn't Free, its bar tab wasn't Free, its groceries weren't Free and, having failed to appear in court on misdemeanor charges, it suffered the additonal ignominy of facing the fact that indeed, not even its DUI was Free ($250.00 just to post bail!). Its only words to the judge were these: "In the bastardized yet immortal phrasings of Kris Kristofferson: Freedom's just another word for something that isn't free..." Family of the deceased Opinion are asking that, in lieu of flowers (which aren't free) that each and every one of us do our part to d

POPSThe Faces of Meth Many of you have probably seen this. We here in Oregon certainly have. It is a little old now, but effects of this poison remain the same. I have been told by a Deputy, that new ones are to be added next year. If you have friends or relatives who think that this won't happen to them, PLEASE assure them that It CAN & WILL ! The one gal who had been doing it over 15 years has been living on borrowed time. Most Meth users have a life expectancy of 5 years.

POPSOne Small County In Michigan Ilsadago1 wrote: "coffeesnob wrote:" "In the year 2000: 85,000 people died (alcohol related) 17,000 people died (ALL illicit drugs usage combined) What is not "realistic" about that? Numbers are numbers, dead people are dead people." It's not always about how many deaths there are. It's the crimes committed to get, make, distribute and buy the drugs. It's the children permanently made ill by inhaling the fumes produced by a meth lab. It's the cost of medical, dental, substance abuse and mental health care. It's about the loss of employment, inability to care for children financially, hunger, homelessness and lack of basic needs. It's the lengths people will go to to feed the habit - it's not about getting 'high', it's about not getting dope sick. They will do ANYTHING to not get 'sick'. Death is the least of the problems.

POPSThe Montana Meth Project: "Not Even Once" To paraphrase a dear, departed one: "When it comes to adulterants, stick to the vegetables you can grow in your back yard. No powders. No needles. No pills. Nothing referred to on the streets by it's initials. Nothing used to tranquilize large 4-legged mammals. Steer towards things whose processing is not much more complicated than one might put into making a dessert, and away from the ones concocted in mad-ghetto-scientist labs that go 'splodey."

POPS War Vets and the People Who Play Them But isn’t that the joke here? For the last thirty years, Hollywood has perpetuated the myth of the troubled vet - egged on by the cacklers on the coasts, nearly all of whom have never met a war vet in their life. To them, every dude in a uniform is Timothy McVeigh. The real truth is that, nearly all military dudes are delightfully decent and even mundane - far saner than you and me - and without a doubt much more fun than Napolitano - a person, who, as Governor Rendell once pointed out, doesn’t get out much. She probably just rents “The Road to Guantanamo” repeatedly off Netflix, while thinking of new words to describe terror that won`t hurt anyone`s feelings. And that`s what gets me. Right now we have an administration that cares more about the feelings of those who want to kill us, than those who want to protect us. I mean, if Janet were around in the 1940`s, we`d probably all be speaking Austrian.
