Ice Age II: Lessons Learned from Bay County, Florida Methamphetamine Awareness/Training Documentary. When: 9/29/2005; Sponsor: MCTFT; Ice, Speed, Go Fast, Crank, Crystal, Yaba -- No matter what you call it, Methamphetamine is the fast-growing, illegal drug craze our nation's ever seen. It's catching law enforcement and communities off guard. And those fighting it are having a hard time keeping up with the battle to eradicate this epidemic. The folks in Bay County, Florida will tell you all about it in this one-hour training documentary. Because when meth hit Florida, this poison was first peddled in the Panhandle. But there was a new Sheriff in town, armed and ready to launch a pre-emptive strike on meth and chase it out of his jurisdiction. "The day we announced that we were creating our meth unit, we worked our first meth lab. From that point on, it went crazy!" recalls Bay County Sheriff Frank McKeithan who created his MAD (Methamphetamine Drug Unit) -- a team of deputies assigned to fight meth and only meth 24/7. "What concerns me the most is the availability of this drug and the fact that someone can leave their home, go to the local store or Wal-Mart and buy the materials to make meth with," Sheriff McKeithan says. "It's just unbelievable that they can do that. It's the only drug in America where they can run down to Wal-Mart with their shopping list filled and go home and make meth." "The secret to winning this battle or war on meth is to #1: Have the right battle plan," he proclaims. "The potential for harm to police officers and the communities goes up greatly because of illegal methamphetamine production," says Sheldon Burkett, a Special Supervisory Agent and clandestine methamphetamine expert with the Drug Enforcement Administration. "These chemicals used to make meth need to be handled differently than drugs such as cocaine, heroin or marijuana would be treated because it is hazardous waste." This one-hour training documentary focuses on how the illegal manufacturing, use, abuse and trafficking of methamphetamine wreaked havoc on this quiet county in the Panhandle. You will hear first-hand accounts about the dangers of meth from undercover officers, fire-fighters, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) methamphetamine experts as well as heart-wrenching stories from a former meth addict and a mother whose son committed suicide while high on meth. This video is designed to appeal to a wide-ranging audience -- from law enforcement officers, fire fighters, neighborhood and citizen groups, probation and child protective services workers, drug treatment providers, schools --- anyone or any agency who wants to know more about what meth is and how to protect yourself from the devastatingly dangerous demise it is having on communities nationwide. Program Objectives: Learn how meth is being manufactured in neighborhood homes. Learn how to recognize Clan Lab Indicators -- the ingredients, chemicals and supplies used to cook meth. Learn how to protect you from the dangers of the highly volatile chemicals used in illegal clandestine laboratory methamphetamine production. The environmental hazards associated with the production of methamphetamine. Explore the unique dangers meth poses to children. Understand how meth affects the user and how violent and dangerous people high on meth can be. Discover effective strategies in fighting the War on Meth. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

You may be correct, as you seem to be educated in Chemistry? I was simply going from information put forth within a documentary produced by National Geographic "Explorer"...which took the position against Methamphetamine
However, I don't entirely trust even they, as other occurrences have come to pass in which their actions were suspiciously shady. I'd sooner give credibility to a well spoken, reasonably sensible Youtuber, such as yourself

@Chuichupachichi Well, its structure is not exactly equivalent to Dopamine, but it is pretty darn similar. We all know what small changes in chemical structure can essentially do to an organism so I personally wouldn't go so far as to say that they are equivalent. I definitely see your point though.

"There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man"
Over 50% of prison inmates are there for no reason other than defying the government that has determined what may or may not be ingested into the bodies of others
Whenever the government declares something to be illegal, saying "its bad for you", the proper response is that nothing is as bad for you as is government authoritarianism

Government authoritarianism is bad for your health, bad for your finances, bad for your liberty, bad for your general welfare...& it effects everyone
Throughout 6000 yrs of recorded history, governmental authoritarianism has, if not immediately, then eventually, always resulted in the exploitation & murdering of the common peoples
The federal government performs incompetently poor in their job serving the people. They dedicate much attention to their lucrative side job of "Kingpin" wholesalers

{if people actually understood the chemistry of these compounds, they wouldn't be so demonized}
The molecular structure of the stimulant Methamphetamine is equivalent to the molecular structure of Dopamine that is produced by the human brain. The brain doesn't produce anything to kill its own cells
The addictive stimulant known as Caffeine ("can't function until had my Java"), is a pesticide that kills biological organisms known as insects... braincells are smaller

@matthewgroen that's the danger with these documentaries, if people actually understood the chemistry of these compounds, they wouldn't be so demonized by the media
