I belive if a person wants to eat rare beef covered with butter and cheese every day of their life they may. If they want to ride a motor cycle with no helmet they may Right, but people who use drugs DO effect the lives of others. These activities do not.
So what have you done lately to stem the destruction of lives, other than posting to WOD threads on FR?
Actually, I work with drug addicts in the South Bronx, so I guess your sarcasm misfired.

Now I get it, we are threatining your income through forced 'treatment'.
All those people who are ordered to 'treatment' by the courts are addicts i suppose.

people who use drugs DO effect the lives of others.They affect them, perhaps, but do they violate the rights of others, and if so, how?
