Oregon meth fatalities soar 22%

All the yapping control freaks who want to start requiring a prescription just to buy cold medicine can kindly slam their gizzards tight now.

After Oregon became the first state to require a prescription, the state has now experienced a staggering 22% increase in the number of meth-related deaths. New statistics from the Oregon State Medical Examiner's office show that the number of meth fatalities last year was the most in at least a decade.

What do the right-wingers who supported the prescription law have to say about this? They say it's the fault of other states, most of which don't have this law. Well, Oregon does have this law, and that's the state where the number of meth-related deaths soared 22%. So the drug warriors lose their argument. Big surprise.

Why do "small government" right-wingers like Hal Rogers support this law?
