If we want to actually do something about the cartels, we can start by ending the War on Drugs. We already ran this experiment with the mob during Prohibition. Turns out banning things just made organized crime richer. A regulated drug market is safer for everyone.

The War on Drugs was never about… drugs. Drug use is not a poor problem, or a Black problem. It’s a mental health problem. And a policy problem. NEW: ‘Junkie to Judge’ @marybethoconnor.bsky.social on Drug Use, Addiction, Criminalization, Recovery, and Community 🔗 bit.ly/junkietojudge

FDA is approving a new form of nalmefene for “prophylaxis” for “opioid exposure,” specifically citing fentanyl. “Fentanyl exposure” is not a thing. Fent has to be intentionally ingested to cause OD. It’s being made by a “blockchain-focused digital finance company” whose “biotech arm” is only this…

Welp, nice to see the public opinion finally shifting on this. Some of us didn’t need to see 2 full years of children dying to say something…. I literally had friends/family unfriend me and write nasty notes over this. Wonder where they’re at on this now!

Here we go again! Typical dangerous misinformation in this article. The symptoms experienced: “shaky hands, dizziness, and hot flashes.” None of these are symptoms of fentanyl overdose. This article also reinforces myths around Halloween candy fentanyl toward the end.

@clairezagorski.bsky.social @ryanmarino.bsky.social @stephen-murray.com Now we are expected to believe than officer needed Narcan from a dope bag hitting the outside of his car at 90mph? This may be the all time BS “exposure”claim in history! www.masslive.com/news/2025/10...

Mass. man sentenced for high-speed chase that sent trooper to hospital

The trooper had to be revived with Narcan after his cruiser was hit by discarded narcotics, police said.

“Detectives say traffickers are intentionally making fentanyl in candy-like forms to attract children and young adults in an effort to drive addiction.” Drugs attract young adults because drugs are awesome, offer an escape from violent end stage capitalism, fill mental health treatment voids…

Stephen Murray’s journey to stability began with support, not punishment. Forcing people into treatment can worsen outcomes and increase overdose risk. With high costs and long waitlists, many struggle to get help. That’s why he calls for accessible care grounded in healing, dignity, and safety

When I decided to stop using, what carried me was the belief that I could stop because I wanted to with the support of my family, friends, and care providers -- not because someone forced me.

Forced treatment discharges people to the same environment, with a new wound: a loss of autonomy at the hands of those who claimed they are helping. In addition, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, individuals with substance use disorder leaving forced treatment are 41% more likely to overdose within 30 days.

As the leader of a hotline where we keep people safe while they are using, I have seen how kindness and unconditional support change behavior in ways punishment never could.

You can't heal trauma in a traumatic environment, and you can't build trust by locking someone behind bars. If we want to save lives, we need to stop clinging to coercion and start making care accessible and free that honors people's dignity, autonomy, and right to be safe.

-Stephen Murray

We seem to be getting a new flood of these stories... I searched all the available info — there is no discussion anywhere of the symptoms the officer allegedly experienced and no bodycam footage on any of the news stories. We can safely say that a wet soggy bag of dope is not going to go airborne.

No… they didn’t. Fentanyl misinformation is now an international phenomenon. Paging @ryanmarino.bsky.social

It’s absolute bullshit to say you can’t help people until they stop using. We can and do work on safety, housing, health, and dignity while people use.

If your solution to homelessness doesn’t center on providing housing… you are deeply unserious.

We have seen this strategy used before — I shared a while back a cop in Philadelphia doing this (I reported him and never got a response). Countless people on video giving naloxone to people who are awake. This takes it a step further and is absolutely disgusting. sfstandard.com/2025/09/11/s...
