Is this happening in Brampton? Probably.

I'm actually torn on the subject of recreational drugs. I have a live and let live attitude towards life. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But it is also very painful for me to watch people ruin their lives due to drug addiction. And then you have to draw the line somewhere as to how much interference from the state is necessary. And it's very difficult for bureaucrats to draw that line. I like to err on the side of liberty, allowing people to make bad decisions in their life. And punishing them if their bad decisions impact others (ie. meth heads robbing people so that they can score more meth). But I understand both sides. I have nieces. I know I wouldn't want them addicted to heroin and sucking cock to pay off their drug debts.
The key, to me, is that drugs do not give you choices. Alcohol, as long as you don't stew in it, doesn't ruin you. Tobacco just makes you sick. Weed just makes you distracted.
Meth, coke, and heroine, in particular, ruin you. After you use those, you aren't a good person, and you don't get a choice in that. Why should the government then respect your non-choice?
I think the answer is medical treatment and recovery treatment, not prison, but the distributors should die. We should kill them. All of them. Every time.
