You cannot buy methamphetamine at Target. The closest you can get are ephedrine-based decongestants... from the Target pharmacy.

Yes you can. Methamphetamine is used to treat ADHD under the trade name of Desoxyn.

Yes, but you can't simply "buy it" from Target.

You can buy it in the same sense that you can simply buy cigarettes. Just the documentation requirements are different.

With ID, might I add. CVS wouldn't sell me pseudoephedrine using my foreign license, which enraged me. I had to settle for phenylephrine which is a very poor replacement. Mind you, I've bought liquor using that license and never been hassled.

I hate this war on drugs.
