I can follow the logic, but it does seem weird to classify something as a WMD that we are regularly giving in hospitals across the country. Regardless, it’s a true problem and I’m glad we’re taking it seriously.
Edit: To clarify, I am aware that the EO discusses illicit fentanyl and is not banning its legal use for medical purposes. I just think it’s interesting that you could go into the hospital and be injected with a WMD. The equivalent for nuclear weapons would be something like Operation Plowshare becoming so widespread that civilian construction companies were regularly performing nuclear demolition.

This is honestly brilliant.
Oh, you have fentanyl. Are you medical personnel or a patient that has been prescribed a fentanyl treatment?
No? Oh, well, you must be a terrorist. Our military has a good track record with hunting terrorists.
