I've done drugs, clearly you havent, probably because you're a pussy or a bible beater.

Get off your high horse and kiss my ass.
Not doing drugs is a healthy choice one makes. I do agree with one of your thoughts that if regulated and produced then consistency might reduce overdoses and taking stuff when the user does not know what is in the pill offered. so That I agree with ya on.

And you hit another important point, somehow we got to get the word to folks to offer help and counseling before drugs becoames an unhealthy life choice.

Now, if we combined the 2. Laws stay in place for illegally produced drugs. If a person use illegally produced drugs and commits a crime under the influence, they still go to jail, but we increase EFFECTIVE counceling while the person is off the streets so that when they return to society they have their drug problem more under control, and have benn then given access to legally made substitutes or meds to keep them off the dangerous stuff.

Bottom line to the deal is DON'T MANAGE THE STATISTICS, manage the care we give to people and increase our bility to do dso. But, YOU HAVE TO HOLED PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE FOR VIOLATING LAWS. You dont reduce your crime rates but declaing fewer people criminals. You reduce crime by showing peole what happens if they do, and also by EFFECTIVELY treating those that you can with vocational training, job skills, and personal skills so they don't go back to the street and commit more crime.

SOLVE THE PROBELM, NOT THE STATISTICS. Solve the probelm and the statistics will follow.

Last point, how much of a role does the Bible play in the 12 step process? Can the values found in that book lead flks to a helathier safer life?
