That's total horseshit.
I'm not a criminal. Two of my buddies who are cops and partied with me are not criminals. All of my friends are not criminals. My mother (loves to smoke pot) is not a criminal.
It amazes me sometimes what people think. There are millions and millions of people who like to party on the weekend and do recreational drugs. I'm not sure how you think that people who party can't keep a job. lol
You're talking about drug ADDICTS. Not pot smokers and guys snorting a line. And when you reference drug addiction you should keep in mind that most people who are addicted to drugs are addicted to PRESCRIPTION drugs.
Also keep in mind that prescription drug overdose deaths are more than heroin, cocaine, opium, crack, meth, and every other recreational drug COMBINED each year.
The real criminals are the govt. holding hands with the pharmaceutical companies in my opinion.
