even drug users have the right to live.....

Debatable. Especially when you realize just how much crime, of all types, are traced back to them.

Wow. Sometimes the lack of compassion here stinks. My prayers for this father and his family.

I would bet you work with people who do drugs and ARE NOT responsible for “crime of all types”. That statement is just stupid!

There are millions of happy, productive and family people who do drugs responsibly and without incident.

Actually, the crime is due to the fact that drugs are illegal. Please read a bit about Prohibition I to understand more about Prohibition II. Everything now occurring in the drug war occurred during Prohibition I including a massive increase in criminal activity.

Billions of dollars are spent fighting drugs. Those dollars are completely wasted except for putting many otherwise good people in prison. The ban on drugs has not decreased use and has bred crime and unconstitutional laws.

Perhaps we should question our government instead of saying this kid deserved what he got.
