You're right. What people like Cultural Jihad don't understand is that arresting drug users, putting them in jail, and/or giving them criminal records (with the effects for emplayment that implies) is adding cruelty while doing nothing productive, since the problem is one of the soul, as Prof. Glenn might tell us if he were reading the thread. So the truly kind thing to do for an addict is not to use force, but to find some other way of helping him.
