The Oregonian
Oklahoma sees a steady and ever more potent supply since a 2004 law to curb pseudoephedrine sales.
Oklahoma City -- As members of Congress consider restrictions on the sale of cold pills used to make methamphetamines, they might want to look at what's happening in Oklahoma.
Oklahoma, which last year became the first state to make consumers visit a pharmacy to buy cold medicines containing the math ingredients pseudoephedrine has seen a massive influx of meth made by Mexican "super Labs" which contain tons of pseudoephedrine which has kept meth plentiful and potent.
The number of Oklahoma users shows no sign of falling in property crime still keeps the Oklahoma County Jail at capacity.
A new analysis of federal data by the Oregonian shows that the drug's potency has hit levels not seen in a decade. Rising purity indicates the supply of meth is growing, and it means a $25 bag of meth will last a user longer.
Federal officials estimate that home Labs account for 35% of meth consumed in the United States, while Mexican cartels produce 65%.
so once again, we leap without looking first and getting all of our information and thereby causing the citizenship to suffer by limiting what is normally over-the-counter medications in the false hopes of reducing the supply of methamphetamines while again ignoring the main issue that the MAJORITY "65%" come from over the border.
How many times does the public have to keep telling the government, you need to control our borders and enforce our EXISTING laws instead of playing around, coming up with Band-Aids and trying to patch together useless legislation without the data and information to properly back it up.
How much longer just the law-abiding citizenship of the United States must pay for the government's incompetency?

I sent this to Lars; he might plug it on the air.
