Everything is a spectrum.

Fentanyl, heroin and a handful of other drugs are too addictive and too deadly to be acceptable.

On topic, though, I have to wonder why warrantless searches are needed to stem the distribution layer of fentanyl.

On topic: Warrantless searches are 'needed' to "stem the distribution of fentanyl" the same reason drug use has always been targeted. Here's a quote from one of the progenitors of the idiotic prohibition mindset (in the US at least)

>"We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news.

Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.” - Nixon's aide John Ehrlichman

Spoiler alert: They don't give a fuck about drugs or those dying from drugs.

They use the specter of "drugs" just like child abuse and terrorism - as eternal battles that need to be fought. How? By ameliorating the conditions that lead to drug abuse and child abuse and terrorism, like poverty and war?

Of course not, they use them to erode our rights under the guise of protection.
