"Just say no" does not work."...


I'm proof that it does..........you don't accept undisputable proof ?????
When ex-users decide to say "no more".......it works for them too (usually thru AA)

The experience of a blue collar upbringing........ Rubber workers in Akron Ohio weren't considered 'The Privileged' and therefore, I wasn't a privileged child, just a well cared for adopted white child in an Italian neighborhood.



.

Congratulations on having loving, hard working, adoptive parents. We have spent $1trillion on 'just say no' and yet we still have endemic drug problems. Two generations of males of color have been imprisoned for 'crimes' that white people would have never even been arrested for. Those men can now never get a decent job and provide for their families, even if they never touch another illegal substance. When a person has been deprived of the ability to legally make a living wage, what do you think they do? They have a tendancy to make it illegally. When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose. Eventually they will take your stuff.

This reminds me of you:

Yeah, we hear it everyday......the jails are full of innocent people.
I don't happen to believe that.....apparently you do, so we will never agree.

No one said innocent but you.
Why are we putting people in prison for being addicted to drugs?

Sure we should put them in jail for theft, or driving under the influence, but warehousing addicts in prison hurts society as a whole. It costs way too much.... not just monetarily.

These addicts should have options for rehabilitation.
Or do you really like paying for an addict's food and water and shelter and clothing, and on and on? Whether you realize it or not, there are a lot of drugs inside prisons.

They are not in jail for being an addict. They are in jail for committing crimes and some of the criminals are addicts.

You do know that possessing drugs is a crime and often is the only reason they are in jail?
The same drugs that they are addicted to.

All I'm saying is that we wait for alcoholics to drink and drive before we put them in jail.
Should we put them in jail for just having alcohol on them?

If the "crime" was only the ingestion of a substance to alter the mind of the user, who is the victim or what property has been damaged?

No the real criminals in their marble palace will simply print some more money, and we will just borrow the remainder from Japan.

So I am forced to pay through inflation? That's not exactly a painless punishment.

I think you know me well enough to already know that answer.

 

[wkmac]

And I would ask you, am I forced to pay his/her housing costs under the illusion of making you/society safe?

In jail we are paying the healthcare costs.

 

[av8torntn]

I don't make any claims about the safety or dangers of living in society. I've been fairly open before that I assume there would be certain acceptable risks to me for living in a free society.
However, since we do not live in a free society if a group of people want me to pay for health care for everyone why should I not have a say in things that can actually affect their health?

Maybe they can use the same rational and have a say about your income. 2 wrongs always make a right!

Oh I could list more than two ways that I am being wronged by the extremely punitive tax rate used in part to support this welfare state.

​That sounds like government logic.

​You did not mention the gun and the fact that one thug has ratted out the other as the killer of the baby.

Nice story and I think this is more common than many want to believe but then our means of information like the media often fail us in bringing these types of stories. Tip of the hat to this media outlet and big tip of the hat to these young men.
