How many of those survivors have now sworn off drugs? It is disgusting to consider that the best our society can do, with all our education and creativity, is to tell addicts that we might be able to save them before they die. If they do decide to quit, all we can do is apologize for spending all our money on Insite where we could watch them get high, so there is not enough money left to build rehabilitation facilities. My child will one day learn of the world she lives in. I have no excuse for her either. Michael Badior New Westminster - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
