Obviously not in the case of this guy, he was living in a homeless shelter.
The problem with prohibition is that it never works. Didn't you dumb-shits learn anything from prohibition? Criminalizing drugs has made the problem worse. What we need are treatment programs. Unlikely we'll get them, though. DuPage County, where I used to live, is fighting a five year battle with a local town to open a clinic.
Now, when the inner city addict gets the same treatment Rush Limbaugh got when he had his little problem, we can talk.
Actually, legally it does, as you can be found not guilty by reason on insanity.
But the bigger problem here is that affluent white people get treatment, poor black people get prison.
Guy, don't be stupid. Those places didn't have 400 years of policies to keep black people down.
Again, 200 years ago, guns were luxury item. Most people didn't own them. Certainly not like today, where the gun industry is pushing them and we have more guns than people in this country.
