Inside America's Zombieland: Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood looks like a scene from the WALKING DEAD as grim photos show 'tranq' addicts shooting up in broad daylight on sidewalks
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Exclusive pictures of Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia - long known as 'ground zero' for the city's drug epidemic - reveal a shocking scene of drug devastation

  • Many addicts are injecting themselves in broad daylight and lying passed out in the streets, with gruesome sores on their arms and legs

  • More than 90 percent of the heroin now found in Philadelphia contains xylazine, or 'tranq', which was developed in 1962 as an anesthetic for veterinary procedures

  • its use on the streets has soared since the pandemic, and causes a blackout stupor along with deep festering wounds that frequently lead to amputations

  • Typical treatments for overdoses are not effective and the FDA issued an alert about the drug in November

#2 You get more of what you tolerate (and even subsidize). Total misplacement of compassion.

You put a drop of wine in your sewage, you have sewage. You put a drop of sewage in your wine, you have sewage.

#3 The Kensington videos on YouTube are worth a look. Our modern society has facilitated all the human misery you see in them.
