Psychopaths are incapable of rehabilitation: Federal bill targets fentanyl pushers with FELONY MURDER CHARGES
04/30/2025 // Lance D Johnson //
In a historic shift, federal lawmakers are now targeting fentanyl dealers with lethal consequences, proposing felony murder charges for peddlers whose drug trafficking claims lives. Introduced on National Fentanyl Awareness Day by Republican senators and representatives, the bill responds to a crisis that has snuffed out over 280,000 lives since 2021, many of whom were unaware they were consuming the lethal synthetic opioid. With illicit cartel networks flooding American streets and rehabilitation efforts failing to curb the carnage, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) argue that incarceration — not empty promises of reform — is the only viable strategy to protect society. “If you sell the drug and take an innocent life, justice will be delivered,” declared Rep. Gonzales, underscoring a visceral rejection of the soft-on-crime ethos eroding public safety.
Key points:
New legislation introduced by Senators Joni Ernst and Rep. Tony Gonzales would allow fentanyl dealers to face felony murder charges if their distribution leads to overdose deaths.
Over 280,000 Americans have died from fentanyl overdoses since 2021, with Mexican cartels and Chinese suppliers fueling the crisis.
The bill aims to impose life sentences or the death penalty on traffickers, upending years of lenient drug policies seen as ineffective.
Rehabilitation programs have only enabled dealers to “feign repentance” and return to exploitation.
A generation annihilated
