I knew him when he was young, he was a nice kid – how far he’s fallen – how sad

Junkies can’t grow weed. Its easier for them to just steal it and feed there “other” drug habits that way.

I’ll bet it all started with the preservative laden breakfast cereal he abused as a child.

In Indonesia, he would have been executed before this bust. These creeps steal from us, burgle us, hurt us, yet the are catch and release here. Pull them out of the water and let them flop on the shore. It is not a disease, it is a decision.

Stuber, as a former drug user(drug free for 15yrs) after a 3year drug problem and have known more addicts than I care to remember I totally think you hit the nail on the head. Addicts are addicts by choice. If some people want to agree that its a disease then I’d have to say its a self inflicted disease. So tired of hearing about these “sick” people needing help. They NEED real consequences. Have a great day!

It’s funny how, with other diseases, if someone refuses to attempt a cure, no one has much sympathy for them, but if your, “disease,” is drug addiction, there are multitudes of people who expect everyone to cater to you, whether you attempt a cure, or not.

Just to vent: today saw what was very likely a drug deal in the parking lot at Adorni center. Guy in a black Kia Soul that has a yellow decal on the gas filler, and another in a beige Toyota. No, I didn’t call the cops. Didn’t want to be in the middle of a firefight.
Ahhhhh, Eureka.
