I think drug addicts need help - serious help and there should be many programs in place that will keep them safe. As safe as possible.

I find it ridiculous that I could go to jail for smoking a joint, but being charged with domestic abuse, I most likely wouldn't see the inside of a jail ever.

Not long ago, there was this girl at a streetcorner asking me for money to get a cup of coffee. You know she wasn't going for the coffee. I gave her whatever I had in my pocket - as we walked away, my friend said 'you do realize that you just further supported her habit.' I disagree, though. I know what she is using the money for, but a heroin addict (which she most likely was) will do ANYTHING to get that money. She was barely 20 and incredibly pretty - if I can keep her from doing the ugly thing just once, I'll do it.


should you help out druggies and homeless people or leave them to their own devices?
