It's not the drugs that kill them really its the prohibition.
When you make somebodys addiction illegal you make that person "illegal"...
I know fully functioning, 2000$ suit wearing, gym going, health food crazy heroin addicts. You would NEVER think such high profile business men are even on beer let alone heroin.
Now if the person does not have money, and the state pretends it has any sort of control over drugs
, then the price is artificially raised, the underworld is rewarded with a lucrative business opportunity and 90% of crime is directly or indirectly created in this process (DEA statistics not mine)
the war on drugs is nothing more than cheap political points for "concerned parents" who think their retard children should die from ciggs and alcohol and not meth
and that if it is "illegal" it, somehow, stops being a problem
i have never met a cop, with an IQ higher than a chimp, that agrees with the war on drugs...but lots of fat mothers and genetically poor fathers who worry about their doomed at birth offspring
fucking joke the whole story...
