Proactiv isn’t going to help this junky. He needs to get off the dope! Too much meth, he’s trying to pick the shards out of his face.

The douch bags are the ones who think putting drug addicts in jail will help!!!!!

This ridiculous system needs fixing starting at the top. So put the pressure on government to get mental health to be a priority. Jail, what a joke. Safe house for criminals. You haters are a joke too.
We are to lazy to help, just complain. If I put others down I will feel better. Spelling is not my strong point Peace to us all

They are sick drug addicts with mental health issues. No quick fixes Go back to make some more money and complain. Get a new walking stick from REI. I’m so special.

Yeah, we’ll see how merciful you’ll feel when you find some POS in your home loading up all the stuff you worked and saved for in a bunch of reverse-Santa bags for quick removal.

The press release doesn’t mention anything about them blasting this guy in the face with a shotgun.

Hopefully, we’ll see him in recovery and he will succeed. Better to send love to someone who is in this situation than call them names.

Have you ever been robbed or had your home burglarized? I have so I’ll call this thief names all day long and then sleep like a baby that night.

His entire family should get a good look at this picture, and he should be held in solitary for a week…in a cell with unbreakable floor-to-ceiling mirrors, while he dries out. af
