Apparently, in Florida, you need background checks to buy cough medicine. I mean, how else would cold medicine be harder to obtain in Florida than a gun? This is just the latest in the pitiful attempts by the corrupt media to bad mouth guns and legal gun owners. Oh, and also according to seeBS, it’s also easier to get a gun in Florida than it is it get Anti-diarrhea medication. Who in the hell wrote this BS story for CBS? Pervert Charlie Rose?

Cold medicine
Don’t expect to be able to stockpile Sudafed for your winter sniffles. Florida State law prohibits consumers from purchasing more than nine grams of common cold medication like Sudafed within a 30-day period. It’s also illegal to purchase more than three packages at once. This is because the medication contains an ingredient called pseudoephedrine, used to create the illegal drug methamphetamine. In 2016, 327 people died from methamphetamine use in Florida. That same year, 2,559 gun deaths were recorded in the state. You can buy as many guns as you like at one time in Florida — most gun purchases are not registered.In order to purchase common cold medication, like Sudafed, customers are required to show a form of photo identification that proves they are at least 18 years old. Each purchase is recorded within a store’s database to monitor the amount sold over the counter.
Anti-diarrhea medication
Buying large quantities of anti-diarrheal meds? Expect to be put under surveillance in a way that won’t happen if you purchase large numbers of firearms. Anyone who bulk-buys anti-diarrhea medication is likely to come under scrutiny by the FDA because the drugs have been abused. In large doses, drugs like Imodium have a similar impact on the body as opiates like heroin. You’ll get high, but your bowels will stop moving.In an effort to combat this bizarre sideline in the opioid epidemic, the FDA is asking manufacturers of over-the-counter anti-diarrhea treatments to change the way they package their products, and limit the amount of loperamide going into the medication.
How about this. All the big shits in the media who make multiple millions of dollars each year for spewing crap like this, drop their armed guards and only have guards who use knives or box cutters instead of guns. Seems fair if guns are so bad right?
