In reply to buprenorphine re-scheduling?!, posted by pseudoname on March 7, 2006, at 9:44:03
Give me a break! Buprenorphine is one of the safest drugs known to man! "Limited medical value"? That is laughable! About as limited a medical value as cannabis, perhaps.
Amazing how once authorities feel something gets you high, its medical value becomes nullified. Let me get this straight: an opioid that is NEVER fatal in overdose unless combined with a CNS depressant due to its PARTIAL AGONIST EFFECTS and documented WANING ANALGESIA AFTER 3-5 DAYS is supposed to have the abuse liability of MORPHINE?
Perhaps if any of these sniveling, blathering idiots had to deal with any kind of pain themselves, they would think twice about this legislation. However, they will always be assured virtually unlimited access to controlled substances.This is the real reason why opioids are so tightly controlled:
CIA Dope Calypso
by Allen Ginsberg, 1972In nineteen hundred forty-five
China was won by Mao Tse-Tung
Chiang Kai Shek's army ran away
And they're waiting there in Thailand todaySupported by the CIA
Pushing junk down Thailand wayFirst they stole from the Meo Tribes
Up in the hills they started taking bribes
Then they sent their soldiers up to Shan
Collecting opium to send to The ManPushing junk in Bangkok today
Supported by the CIABrought their jam on mule trains down
To Chiang Rai, that's a railroad town
Sold it next to police chief --- (?)
He took it to town on the choo-choo trainTrafficking dope to Bangkok all day
Supported by the CIAThe policeman's name was Mr. Phao
He peddled dope grand scale and how
Chief of border, customs paid
By Central Intelligence's U.S. aidThe whole operation, Newspapers say
Supported by the CIAHe got so sloppy and peddled so loose
He busted himself and cooked his own goose
Took the reward for an opium load
Seizing his own haul, which same he resoldBig time pusher, a decade turned grey
Working for the CIAThe whole operation fell in to chaos
Till U.S. intelligence came in to LaosI'll tell you no lie I'm a true American
Our big pusher there was Phoumi NosavanAll them Princes in a power play
But Phoumi was the man for the CIATouby Lyfong he worked for the French
A big fat man liked to dine & wench
Prince of the Meos he grew black mud
Till opium flowed through the land like a floodCommunists came and chased the French away
So Touby took a job with the CIAAnd his best friend General Vang Pao
Ran the Meo army like a sacred cow
Helicopter smugglers filled Long Cheng's bars
In Xieng Quang province on the Plain of JarsIt started in secret they were fighting yesterday
Clandestine secret army of the US CIAAll through the Sixties the dope flew free
Thru Tan Son Nhut Saigon to Marshall Ky
Air America followed through
Transporting comfiture for President ThieuAll these Dealers were for decades and yesterday
The Indochinese mob of the U.S. CIAOperation Haylift Officer Wm Colby
Saw Marshall Ky fly opium Mr. Mustard told meIndochina desk he was Chief of Dirty Tricks
"Hitch-hiking" with dope pushers was how he got his fixSubsidizing the traffickers to drive the Reds away
Till Colby was the head of the CIA!
