So what about the typical suburban user. Where do they do to get their fix......the hood, right?

Now, knowing that, how many potential users are discouraged from using simply because of this fact?

Now if they could get their fix in a more comfortable environment, I suspect that lowers the barrier a bit.

To quote Dennis Miller, “that’s just my opinion, I could be wrong.”

I would just conclude with two words, “Opium Dens.”

Nope — they get it in the suburbs.

Zero.

You suspect wrong. Addiction is internally driven and external factors are all but meaningless.

>>To quote Dennis Miller, “that’s just my opinion, I could be wrong.”<<

And you are.

Up until the late 1960s, most drugs were perfectly legal. There may have been opium dens but those people would go after the drugs anyway.

You haven’t made any kind of a compelling argument and still skip the illegality of the WOD.

We lost the war — let’s stop throwing good money after bad.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but your speculation is derived from ignorance, IMO. Your beliefs do not reflect reality. The “hood” is not a primary hub for illegal drugs. In fact, your belief is actually backwards in some respect. In any case, suburban users do not have to leave their neighborhoods to find what they need, most likely. Distribution is widespread amongst all levels of society and it’s always more of a matter of who you know.
