Alabama county sees meth labs spike under new law

Wow, sounds like that Rockefeller drug law against allergy medicine with pseudoephedrine is really working - not!

How bad are things are getting under these new laws? In Etowah County - a major Alabama jurisdiction - law enforcement says there were more meth labs seized just last month than in all of 2007. Only 6 labs were seized last year, but so far this year, there's been about 30.

The reason for the twelvefold increase in methamphetamine labs? At first, authorities deceived themselves into thinking the new laws were effective. But now they've noticed that meth cooks are evading the law by obtaining ingredients at different stores instead of just one.

Gee! (Slaps forehead.) Who'd have ever thought meth cooks would think to do that?! (That's sarcasm!)

This is just more proof that the only people punished under the new law are allergy sufferers and parents of sick kids.
