We've gotta close up those borders tighter. That's step one. This stuff's sneaking in, and it's hitting our communities like a ton of bricks. But we can't just stop there. Our cops need the right tools to catch this junk before it hits the streets too (and when they do nab the dealers, our courts gotta make sure they don't just waltz back out there). No more Idahoans should have to suffer because of this stuff. Let's spread the word that Idaho's worth fighting for, and we're not letting fentanyl take that away from us.

Fentanyl is merely one layer of the onion that is the scourge of an underground cancer here in Idaho. Fentanyl is merely a symptom. They’re not digging deep enough. Unfortunately neither are the City, County, State or Federal law enforcement entities. The underlying cause they need to address immediately is the human trafficking aspect that is the “engine” of our gang and drug problem. Human sex and drug trafficking which go hand-in-hand are not silos. They are inextricably linked and integrated as both gang and individual criminal “strategy and tactics” used to make money rapidly. The Victims of human sex and drug trafficking are forced into exposure by their “handlers” to deliver drugs, burglarize, recruit other victims, etc and who are frequently caught and jailed. These victims should not be punished for activities they were forced to commit by a trafficker. Young victims, including children (Caucasian teenage boys under 12 are a hot commodity right now), are “seasoned in” to do the handlers’ biddings by being forcefully shot up with Heroin and Meth, brutally gang raped, videotaped for blackmail and to sell online. These men and women threaten the victims’ families and the victims are forced to have sex with clients, multiple dealers, groomers and the “Old Ladies” (madam-types), branded, beaten, deprived of food, water and numerous other tortures, some chained to walls, some in cages.

We need to be proactive about seeking out the victims, protecting them and their families, and establishing new laws that incarcerate the perpetrators. It appears that a focus on Fentanyl is just scratching an itch and not solving the deeper, even more hideous reality our citizens face right now. The laws need to be changed if we are to save the victims of sick, heinous abuse.

If they were to focus attention on the victims, they are the ones who possess a vast knowledge about the traffickers’ operations: their clients (catering to a wealthy and well-connected clientele) dealers, RSO’s, churches, tattoo parlors, truck stops/gas stations, hotel/motel, hair and massage salons and other business, groomers, trap and drug house locations, inter and intrastate drug trafficking routes and methodologies, other victims, gang affiliations, deal timing, locations, etc., you could actually have a more potent approach that delivers real results.

Sadly, Idaho scores an F in the 2022 in the Shared Hope International Report Cards. WTF Idaho?

Since this has been opened up for discussion, I thought I would chime in if I may. Drugs are a symptom of our problem and not the problem so addressing the symptom will do nothing more than spend money and grow government, further erode our right to privacy and so on. Second, Fentanyl is a drug, although it does have its own characteristics it is still a drug and I assume if this issue will be in front of legislators, this would be a conversation about drugs, not just Fentanyl and I would assume if legislated would be subject to laws that govern or should I say regulate drugs (Will the feds be involved in this unconstitutional act as well?) . Third of all, regardless of who's hands it is in, it is, as I understand, created by Big Pharma. Fourth, if Fentanyl is created by Big Pharma, and drugs are a problem in this country, and we believe in truly protecting our state then we should strip the immunities of big pharma as well like not being arrested for being on meds but being busted for pot, for example, Fifth, we assume that the border is the biggest issue and although it may seem like it, at some point, it is going to become important to recognize the government while funding the war on drugs on one hand, also has its hand in the drug trade on the other. Sixth, dealing with the border issue, it is long past time for people to realize why the border is open and why there is no move to close it. You see, if the borders are closed, they cannot merge Canada, The US and Mexico into the North American Union (See New Declaration of North America on the Whitehouse page, the USMCA, TPP, TTIP, and other trade agreements) with other agreements- political and economic integration is key in this process. Seventh, If I understand enough about history, governments create problems, then incite fear, then come up with "solutions" and we always lose our liberties. Additionally, drugs have been used to subdue a people, and one would need to look at the British East India Company and its sordid history. Let us also not forget our Friends Cloward and Piven that clearly describe (as we are implement their agenda) to collapse this nation's economy, healthcare, employment, etc. Finally, it is also important to realize world government needs a peoples and nations to become dependent upon it, it also needs people dependent upon their local government and also remember, the plan for world government is to intentionally reduce the population of the planet and America stands in the way as the last hope of freedom for mankind so this is why we are the primary target. So, as I digress, it isn't just about drugs, it's about everything relating to world government so the sooner people can say it, the sooner we can address the issue at the root, not the branch. There is more but I think I made my point.

Brian Lenney is 100% Correct: "We've gotta close up those borders tighter. That's step one."

We MUST close America’s borders to illegal immigration and turn off the piggybank that funds illegal immigrants — not just those seeking a “better life,” but also those seeking to violently attack America from within, to spread homelessness and bankrupt our cities, and to deal in deadly drugs and human trafficking. If we don’t fund it, they won’t come. We must humanely send all illegal immigrants back to their countries of origin and have them enter America through the front door using legal means.

Write your elected representatives -- federal and state -- to demand our borders be secured and ensure no funding for illegal immigration. You can find some quick links to contact info here: https://eolson47.substack.com/p/resources#%C2%A7contact-and-voting-info
