Singapore has a drug overdose rate of 1.18/100,000 people. The U.S. rate is 32/100,000 people.
We have more freedom, more liberty.

To do fentanyl?

Singapore is also small state and a wholly different non Western culture in almost all respects. I do not believe a meaningful correlation of overdose rates between it and the US can be made.
I also see the death penalty as a final retribution rather than a deterrent. I really don’t think for a moment the criminal mind takes consequences into account prior to acting.
Half of me is against capital punishment and the other half is lukewarm supportive owing to emotional reaction rather than reason. Laws, in my opinion, should reflect reason not passion.

I agree with REnauda.
But, another comparison we could make:
Singpapore has a firearm death rate/100,000 people = 0.01. US = 12.21
Singapore also has very very strict gun control laws compared to the US. Maybe the US should learn and adopt from that also? LOL

Sorry, but the Second Amendment exists and the right of the people to bear arms shall not be infringed.
Now, Kamala -lama-ding-dong has supported walking into your home without a warrant, to ensure your gun is properly stored. Whatever that is...

Now do gun ownership and crime. Or death penalty in Western Europe and crime. You’re cherry picking.

You and others have repeatedly rejected comparisons between the US and, for example Canada or Western Europe regarding the link between gun ownership and homicide levels on the basis that those countries are culturally different from the US.
You'd be hard-pressed to argue that Singapore has more in common with US culture than Canada does.

Address the essential point - Does Singapore's intolerance for fentanyl dealers decrease the levels of fentanyl OD deaths and if so, is that policy exportable to the U.S. in any form or fashion?

Well, in general the death penalty hasn't been shown to reduce crime, so I'd guess probably not.
Could you address whether you think a move towards being more like the Singapore government in general is something you would welcome?
It's also worth noting that there are a lot of countries with lower drug overdose deaths who don't have the death penalty or highly authoritarian governments. Maybe it would be worth examining what they do differently. Obviously, that's not going to get the Trump faithful cheering much, but it might be a more measured approach....
I was only joking

Biased much?
When Trump was talking about this, he cited Singapore and China, both who have the death penalty for drug dealers. He also said that was something that might not could be done in America, but he rolled the conversation into the border and gang related (he specifically mentioned MS 13) organized trafficking.
Do I support the death penalty for foreign nationals engaged in major drug or human traficking? I have no problem with that and would support it.
Do I support tightening up our borders, particularly our Southern Border? Again, I think it's something we should do.
Do I support rigorous deportation or imprisonment of illegal aliens with extensive criminal records? Yep.
All this is of one piece. Control the flow across the border. Incarcerate and/or deport the distribution system. Decapitate anything in management. Permanently.

As near as I can tell overdose deaths from opioids in this godless authoritarian socialist hell is somewhere in the vicinity of 20/100,000. It varies though throughout the country with the highest instances in Vancouver, Ontario and, Alberta (the last being the evangelical Bible belt of the nation, no less!).

Right, I'm easily the most biased person in this thread.

I wonder how many watched the Oprah-Harris show.
From Variety:
Other celebrities on screen included Bryan Cranston, Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, Tracee Ellis Ross, Jennifer Lopez and Julia Roberts. Approximately 300,000 viewers watched on the Harris campaign’s YouTube channel.
As of this moment, 1.8M views.
Trump has 1M views of the Gutfeld! show on his channel. FOX has another 4.2M YT views on different excepts from the show.
