Why not arrest the users? I'm really tired of all the rhetoric about drug users being the abused ones or victims. Understandably, some are born into the drug culture, but the fact is that most people choose to take illegal drugs. Seriously, the people buying and using these drugs are the ones causing such great damage to our country. They should all be punished. Let the drug users pay the price with being in jail or prison and not in rehab centers. No one forces them to use; they are just stupid people who don't care one ounce about themselves or their families. Surely I'm not the only one who feels this way. Punish the users to the full extent of the law and drug dealers will cease to exist or at least be financially hurt. Where are you, politicians? Make this issue a cause. Stop the users!
