          Again, that’s the pills, conservatives love their hillbilly heroin, and conservatives usually aren’t that into what they perceive as drugs, but pills aren’t drugs to them, and neither is cocaine apparently.

          Also, real talk, the bath salts dude wasn’t even on bath salts, that was just the cops trying to panic people with “drugs bad”:

          Although friends and family filled in details of Eugene’s life, the reason for the attack remains unclear. Eugene, 31, employed at a car wash at the time, was divorced and had a series of petty criminal arrests from age 16, with the last in 2009. While police sources speculated that the use of a street drug like “bath salts” might have been a factor,[3] experts expressed doubt, since toxicology reports were only able to identify small amounts of marijuana in Eugene’s system, leaving the ultimate cause of his behavior unknown.[4][5] Poppo, 65, a graduate of Manhattan’s Stuyvesant High School, was homeless and had long been presumed dead by his estranged family.

          Eugene accused Poppo of stealing his Bible, beat him unconscious, removed Poppo’s pants (trousers), and bit off most of Poppo’s face above his beard (including his left eye), leaving him blind in both eyes.[1

          I mean who needs drugs when you got religion, amirite? Also probably why the cops tried covering it up by blaming bath salts.
