Why are there no recent photos of Rush in short sleeves? Needle tracks???
Edited on Mon Nov-17-03 08:18 PM by Dr Fate
It's nothing to cook up a few of those "Trailer-park Smack" pills and drive them home with a silver lady-

Most/many herion addicts do reach that point if unchecked...

Many other herion/opiate abusers start off snorting or smoking the powder, or taking the opiate in pill form. Eventually, many chronic abusers "graduate" to the needle.

I'm not making any accusations, but shooting up is a natural progression common amongst narcotics addicts, and I have not seen any recent photo's of Rush in short sleeves...

Oxycotin is no joke- it's pretty much heroin...if Rush is banging the smac, then he is in big trouble and 30 days of rehab aint gonna cut it...

1. I would think that he would have enough sense to use a less visible
location like his feet. Do you think the big blowhard would actually be able to stick himself with a needle?

2. ummmmmm there were ones before?
I don't remember seeing any of him in short sleeves before, let alone now. And seeing as how he is *just* out of rehab there isn't much time for pictures, nor I imagine will he want to have any taken for awhile.

pretty flimsy evidence

14. That yellow is a bad color for him
Maybe the reason he doesn't want to show his arms is he has a really embarassing tattoo that he got when he was super smacked out.

11. Also Youngun- I said recent pics, not post rehab pics...
...obviously he would not have any post rehap pics yet...

This is the most recent photo I could find, but he is hiding the crooks of his arms in it...

12. Ok
but I still think that's pretty weak evidence that he's progressed to needle usage.

He may well have, what you said about drug progression is true...but I don't think the fact that he doesn't have many or recent photos of him in short sleeves with his inner elbows exposed is evidence that he is doing it. How many famous or semi famous people have you seen with pics like that. I can't think of many off the top of my head

16. It's an inference on my part, and not an outrageous one...
Edited on Mon Nov-17-03 09:35 PM by Dr Fate
FACT: Anyone who has seen the movie "Rush" (heh heh) knows how easy it is to cook up narcotics pills for needle use.

FACT: Many/most narcotics addicts do graduate to needle usage.

FACT: Rush is a narcotics addict, and has been using them long enough to get to this stage.

Until the "Liberal media" decides to ask him, I will continue to make educated inferences...

17. You are right- there are no pictures of Rush in short sleeves!!!
Edited on Mon Nov-17-03 09:47 PM by Dr Fate
What is he hiding??? I noticed you did not include a pic in your post.

This is the 4th post where you have defended Rush, BTW...

Besides, as another poster pointed out, Junkies like Rush often use other veins to pump in the narcotics-like the ones between their toes, or the vein underneath their scrotum sack...

You are right- it is very possible that his daily narcotics injections have caused his his viens to collapse, and that he is no longer using the ones in his arms...

The main point is that herion addicts often "graduate" to needle use, and Rush has been in the "game" long enough to degenerate to that point...

21. "Symptoms of Withdrawal include : diarrhea..."
http://www.oxycontinaddiction.info/withdrawal.htm

Symptoms of Withdrawal include :

diarrhea

insomnia

cold flashes

muscle pain / bone pain

restlessness

involuntary leg movement

vomiting

nausea

severe stomach cramps



Real World Withdrawal Story - "It's pure hell. The hot and cold sweats, leg cramps, some abdominal problems, diarrhea and / or vomiting. You need not only to be de-toxed, but also treated. If you are really at your end, you will do whatever it takes to get your life back. I did. I love life today. Good Luck. The withdrawals are a long 2 to 3 weeks of no sleep. I know, I've been there. That's why it's impossible to do it out-patient or at home. You have issues to deal with, and need reinforcement."

9. Rush is doing great! He can handle the smack! He's got it under control!
Seriously, all those liberal druggies just couldn't handle the horse -- but a strong conservative like Rush can manage the habit. Maybe he is injecting smack now...just to show us liberals what wimps we are!

Ah, just kidding. I wish Rush nothing but the absolute worst.

20. The needle and the damage done...
Edited on Tue Nov-18-03 01:04 AM by Dr Fate
Individuals who abuse OxyContin by injecting the crushed tablets quickly become addicted. Injecting OxyContin requires a preparation regimen similar to that of heroin. This allows the abuser to receive the full effect of the pure Oxycodone almost immediately. This creates an effect similar to illicit opioid narcotics, such has heroin. Such a regimen requires the removal of the tablet coating by either sucking on it or scraping it with the teeth or a razor blade, followed by melting the remainder on a spoon, adding water, and then injecting the solution. Dissolving and injecting the contents of OxyContin can slow down or stop breathing and lead to death. Injecting OxyContin can also kill the tissue around the injection site and trigger heart and lung problems.
