Legislation touted as means to combat meth labs

12. My charge is just as fair and accurate as yours.

Don't dish it out if you can't take it.

I think it's a good idea to have access only to the products that are more difficult to convert to meth. If they are just as effective, there is no good reason to have the legacy medicine around at all, by prescription or otherwise. If they are not as effective, then that needs to be part of the debate.

As I said from the outset, we don't need to "...put pseudoephedrine behind the counter" as Detective Clark Green claimed, because it is already behind the counter where it is controlled today by pharmacists as I described. Supporters of the bill in question "...want consumers to know the law would not cause inconvenience." Do you honestly believe that going to a doctor to get a prescription for an OTC remedy is not an inconvenience? This defies logic.

If we need to do more, then let's tighten controls already in place or totally ban versions of these remedies that are not designed to thwart meth production. Regardless, there is no good reason to get doctors involved.
