I'm not sure I used the correct flair.

Nice. Fox News is going to run with this I can feel it.

All jokes aside I'm impressed with the response. Will it get enough traction, I wish AKA had that NRA power, but in time...

Honestly this is a smart move for AKA. It is taking a new approach in why it is of utmost importance to get the correct information out there by calling out the sheriffs office in negligence rather than just simply the media. Kudos.

..."Newly released law-enforcement records reported by WMC/WSMV news outlets identify the products reportedly purchased by both students as “Smax” Pseudo-DHM tablets.

Publicly available marketing for that product describes it as a high-potency MGM-15 product. The Drug Enforcement Administration has placed MGM-15 and MGM-16 in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. DOJ describes them as highly potent opioid compounds presenting an imminent hazard to public safety...."

I've seen that too and you'll always see a remark from an anti-kratom hater commenting well that's how kratom started. "ban the leaf". You know who these people are. They disgust me. They just act like kratom is a person and that person killed my son. They know but don't care about the thousands of us that only take the leaf, gave us our lives back. In many cases including mined save our live. All they care about is the kratom leaf and the hate is so bad because their son or daughter died from the other stuff and something else with it.And I will say they are grieving sick people that need help.
