Heroin and Oxy destroyed my family. The answer is rehab, as well as nailing dealers to the wall.
...or better yet putting dealers in a locked room with a surviving Parent or Spouse, no questions asked, baseball bat provided. :)
Your family destroyed itself using the drugs.
It could have destroyed itself with weapons or with other intoxicants.
It is the urge to destroy oneself that needs to be addressed, and as long as an item which is neutral until used gets pegged as “responsible,” that urge won’t be addressed. Satan will hide quite nicely behind that non-sentient front.
Even the bible knows about this (it is not a stupid book).
Did rehab work for your family member?
Should we ban oxy?
nailing dealers to the wall.
Brian Gaughan and the other current and former members of the law enforcement and criminal justice communities in Law Enforcement Against Prohibition disagree.
My sympathies! And is why I have always advocated swift trial and execution for major drug dealers. Hanging or by firing squad.
