If anyone doesn't know what's going on here exactly. The Sackler Family – A Secretive Billion Dollar Opioid Empire - [VIDEO]
It's very possible for everyone to be guilty. We don't live in a world where if something isn't "useful" it isn't true. Your statement ends up reading sort of like "Is every Nazi guilty of the holocaust?" Technically maybe not, doesn't change the fact that of the matter that overall all Nazis are guilty. You can't run away from this with some garbage statement of "Not a very useful perspective." This incident literally killed an amount of people that is equivalent to a genocide. Imagine if you were a Nazi and you said that. If you were just a mere guard at one of these concentration camps could you say what you just said to me to a victim who lived through the atrocity? Think about what you should say to the parents of a man/woman who died from an opioid overdose. Literally, I think you're unaware of the magnitude of the crime that was committed here. Watch these videos: [VIDEO] [LINK]
Considering the scope and breadth of their involvement in the deaths of hundreds of thousands, I don't think losing their money and "empire" is adequate. Prison time is well-deserved considering the outcome of their lies and fraud: [VIDEO]
