It's the heroin era now. In the cities, the 'burbs and even rural America.
Drop in on an "Open Meeting" at one of the fellowships and check out the teens and 20-somethings that are all trying kick the horse. Bad scene. Too many dieing. 90% of those I have talked to have been saved by narcan at least once. More than half, multiple times.
Crack heads are in their late thirties and forties.
Coke fiends are fifty and above.
Alkies are all of the above.
In my experiences, I have still seen plenty of crack in the inner cities, although heroin is making inroads. Heroin is bigger in the suburbs, I think it might have to do with price.

No in-person voting at all on Election Day, and everything has to go by US Mail?
There are drop boxes you can put your ballot in, not requiring postage or any postal handling. Most public facilities have one- the closest to me is outside the library in the nearest city. But all the ballots are sent out via mail at least 2 weeks before the election. You can request a replacement if you didn't get yours, but there are no polling places. The last ones were closed after the 2012 election, and physically polling places are no longer allowed by State law (before that it was up to the Counties if they wanted to do both, but only one county had physical polling places in 2012, which happened to be the county I was living in at the time).
They don't advertise it, but there is ONE physical location per county where you can get a replacement ballot up to and on election day in person, at the main election office for the county usually.
Death is Nature's way of telling you to slow down.
I have a friend in Minsk, who has a friend in Pinsk, whose friend in Omsk has friend in Tomsk with friend in Akmolinsk; his friend in Alexandrovsk has friend in Petropavlovsk, whose friend somehow is solving now the problem in Dnepropetrovsk.
Does that clear things up?
People who are wrong are just as sure they're right as people who are right. The only difference is, they're wrong.

And when his work is done - Haha! - begins the fun.
From Dnepropetrovsk to Petropavlovsk, by way of Iliysk and Novorossiysk,
To Alexandrovsk to Akmolinsk to Tomsk to Omsk to Pinsk to Minsk
To me the news will come, yes, to me the news will run!

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
Okay, ya got me, Sue...
