In a blog entry Wednesday, Kansas City police chief James Corwin posted a photo of blue methamphetamine that undercover units had recovered (above right). He had a couple different theories as to why the meth might be blue, but let’s face it: it’s because “Breaking Bad” has made blue meth sexy.

[One] theory is that the blue could be the mark of the manufacturer, like how ecstasy makers stamp pills with pictures to indicate where they came from or that they’re “high quality.” Still another hypothesis is that the manufacturers are simply copying the TV show on AMC called “Breaking Bad,” which features a character who makes meth and dyes it blue.

Wrong! The blue color comes from Walter White replacing pseudoephedrine with methylamine, not from blue dye. What a stupid cop. He’s probably out “policing” when he should be watching “Breaking Bad.” We may as well burn Kansas City down and start over.
