163. If that were true, nobody would get clean.
Plenty of addicts decide to take that option. They're the ones who succeed. It's the people you arrest, throw into jail and turn into criminals that go home and relapse immediately and/or become more entrenched in the criminal world.

It's obnoxious that you think you have the right to determine when a person is such a harm to him or her self that it's up to you to remove them from their home against their will. Where does it stop? Why is it only a select few drugs that qualify?
