In his latest “Weekly Address”, POTUS invites Macklemore to tackle the issue on opioid overdose. The two will continue their address of substance abuse in an upcoming documentary which will air on MTV this summer.
The POTUS loves hip-hop.
It makes me nervous when a politician blames doctors for people who abuse medication, because when Obama attacks an institution like healthcare and its doctors, it will be the patients that suffer.
No, you can literally follow what the instructions say after a serious injury and just in that time you can become addicted, happened to my mom and a friends mom…it’s time we find a better alternative than pain killers.
Plus those pills aren’t available unless they give them out. And there’s plenty of doctors who are nothing but pill pushers.
Maybe Obama should consult the medical profession instead of a fucking artist. After all, that’s where prescription drugs get their start.
I didn’t even listen to this honestly because of that exact reason. But honestly he can blame doctors because like I said, someone can’t initially get it unless they have a prescription. All the ones sold on the street started off as someone’s script.
rofl. not true dude. You used to be able to buy cases of ac. lol. was someones script. Maybe the small amounts the people you knew who fucked with it buying in 8oz portions or some shit but no. That shit was hardly always starting as someones script. lol. Get the fuck out of here with no real life fucking experience. Matter fact the closer you ever get to lean is prolly hearing about it on Drake records or some shit. The fuck man
Fool what he’s saying is he encourages people to get help for addiction before they suffer or die and now that there are affordable treatment options then people who have a problem should get help you fucking idiot.
those of us that need the drug will be the 1st to suffer !
Dumbass, the drugs are in overwhelming abundance in almost every few mile radius in america. Thats why addiction to the drugs is so out of control. Stfu
I’ll just say I feel about as bad for white people who die from addiction in recent years as the last 4 or 5 presidents did about black people who’ve been dying from addiction and imprisoned over it for generations.
Personally I look at it as I feel horrible for the people now and even worse for the ones in the past. But saying you don’t give a fuck about white people dying from the new drug epidemic is just ignorant
Its not ignorant. I give the same amount of fuck about white people as they do and as their government elected officials have given a fuck about black people that have been dealing with an epidemic of drug overdoses for half a century now. Yeah its an epidemic now that its hit white america, it didn’t mean shit as long as it was killing black people though. I hope white people are devastated to the same degree by drugs that black people have been because it was used as chemical warfare against black people and there is scientific and political evidence to back that up based upon its effects on black people and the reaction to the epidemic by the justice system and the federal government. I can’t feel sorry for white people when no sorrow has been shown to black people. Fuck em.
man u are just as brainwashed as the people you are told to hate. u need to start thinking for yourself. to put someone like me in the same category as someone like a politician is just fuckin retarded. and u make it very clear that u disagree so much with some group of peoples 50 year stance, and in the end your answer is to take the SAME EXACT stance?? wtf its almost funny. theres a word for that btw.
Ive never authored any government policy breh, and those white people you wish devastation on have names and most likely had nothing to do with anything you speak of.
wake the fuck up its 2016. the name of the game is rich and poor and you still stuck on some hypocritical racial hate revenge shit
Not brainwashed at all. What I said about the difference in response now from masses of white people dying from overdoses vs black people that have been dying for decades for the same reason is the truth. Its not a product of brainwashing. You think me taken the “same stance” is funny? Then you can think that. You don’t understand why I have taken such a stance on the issue. You keep talking about me addressing YOU as the government? If thats what you wanna think my comments are doing then you can think that. Anybody who takes offense to what I’m saying is in the same boat as the kinda crackers I’m addressing imo. You call it “racial hate revenge”? If there are reasons why black people should feel vengeful in terms of racism? Then it is what it is.
Also for people that wanna make it a “rich vs poor” thing? Thats fine with me because that will lead right back to the actions of masses of white people that have been taken against black people. So we can go there too. Again, for black people that wanna give a fuck about white people after centuries of the LARGE MAJORITY of them giving no fucks about us? They can do that. I say fuck em and let them die. Thats how they have ALWAYS felt about us.
It wasn’t ignorant when white america was rooting for black peoples death while watching episodes of Cops for a generation and campaigning for police state style enforcement and more prisons and less, barely affordable treatment for black people that were addicts. It wasn’t ignorant to wish death on us but its ignorant when I wish death on them? No
No it was ignorant as fuck and way more fucked up what white people did….but bitching about it is never gonna change shit. And if you treat white people who are younger like they had something to do with it it makes no sense.
Whatever though, have fun living a bitter ass life.
Me saying what happened isn’t bitching about it. Its saying what happened and giving reason to why I don’t give a fuck about white people dying now from addiction. Its not my obligation to change a mothafucka thing in regards to white people because again, I give the same amount of fuck about them now as they have given about black people dying from addiction for the last 50 years. NONE
wow! big move!
This the sad aftermath of the Lean movement???
Not sure I like seeing Macklemore next to the President. Just not sure what he has accomplished that makes him worthy. But I won’t fight it if it’s for a good cause.

gay stuff
At first I was gonna say wtf? But are you saying that ‘same love’ gay song is basically what got him here. Now that actually does make sense, pandering to the gay community will get you far as an entertainer.
Pandering.. and trying to force the acceptance of people who, generally speaking and for the most part, have almost zero interest in the culture you are trying to get them accepted by.
