"Darkness cannot be dissipated with more darkness.
Seattle, Washington (CNN) -- Less than two hours after picking out a man in a police lineup who held up his drugstore, pharmacist Mike Donohue was being robbed.

Again.

The new robber's face was hidden under the hood of a bulky black sweatshirt. He rocked back and forth anxiously, with his right hand planted in his pocket.

Like the other five robbers who had held up Donohue's store before, the man demanded OxyContin, a popular painkiller known for its high abuse potential.

"My technician came back and showed me the note that said, 'Give me your OxyContin. I have a gun,' " Donohue said.

(yes, I know that there was already an article posted about the guy who fired his gun at the robber, but this article is about the issue in general... I would like to keep it separate, at least for now, though if people would prefer to merge them, I am willing to do that instead.)
 
It's always OxyContin too.....I'm wondering if the people doing these robberies have realized the new OP formulation isn't nearly as desirable as the old formulation...

Although, now that I think about it, it is entirely probable that they're aware and just don't care.
 
why would he make them give him just oxy? i would have been like give me temazepam, xanax, klonopin, hydromorphone, oxymorephone, lyrica, soma, hydrocodone, tramadol, morphine, ect.. loll
go big or go home...
 
Pharmacies need to start installing drop-down bulletproof shields for their counters as well as turrets that come out of the ceiling and microphones so that the pharmacists lols can be heard after they make the robber shit his pants.
