John Gault Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 If a relative of yours developed an addiction to heroin, would their death cheer you? There is no reason why people with a heroin addiction cannot have a safe, legal prescripition which allows them to lead productive, crime free lives. It sure would, just like you put a dog down when its too sick to treat. In point of fact give me a gun and I'd execute them myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libuse Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 "Deaths from locally acquired HIV infection and drug-related overdoses fell to zero." Gota take the rough with the smooth I suppose. So you'd prefer that public money was spent treating unnecessarily acquired HIV-related illnesses just so that people who use heroin experienced some sort of suffering? How unpleasant.

Still claiming to be a lifelong socialist John? Would you murder a family member who was mentally ill too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure a lot of them would be quite happy to shoot you as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a vested interest in keeping crime levels high John? Are you a heroin dealer perchance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindrift Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I'll pass you the ammo My beautiful niece had a rough time when she was a kid. We all tried to help her but she developed an addiction that was managed by methadone. She od'd on it and died. Are you really saying you would help murder her?

John Gault Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Still claiming to be a lifelong socialist John? Would you murder a family member who was mentally ill too? There's a difference between the two that you seem not to be able to grasp. Drug users choose to do what they do, they do so in the full knowlege of what the consequences are as well. People who get sick for any reason and with any sickness do not choose to do so and sociaty has a duty to care for them. Oh, and just for your uneducated benefit. There nothing in socialisum to say that criminals should be cared for, quite the contray in actuality. Deviants should be eliminated, or haven't you read your Marx lately.

This is quite wrong, some people are predisposed to forming a reliance on soporifics or alcohol, it's a medical problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, regardless of your horribly unpleasant attitude to drug users, can you not see the benefit in a scheme which shows such huge benefits in crime reduction?
