seems to me a good way to cut down on crime.

any hardcore drug user that commits crime should be given this option:

1. Forced re-hab

2. A chance to live on the straight and narrow

3. further crime with heavy drug use = culling.

sound feasable?

not sure about him, but don't think he was a druggie, lol

so how about it?

serial offenders that are hooked on crystal meth, crack, heroin and the like - give them one chance to sort it out otherwise it's the chop!

and what is with this ridiculous state-sponsered, free methadone.

that should be scrapped.

I mean, would I get free drink if I were an alcoholic?

The television, movie, and music industry would fight this. Eliminating hard core drug users would elimate nearly half their stars and directors.

Bound and beaten is more like it.

No mercy for habits that are illegal.

my theory only applies to druggies that commit serious crime.

this would be crimes committed in order to gain the money to purchase drugs, and those done while under the influence.

basically crimes against the person or things like burglary etc..

Most if not all of them drive under the influence which would make them all criminals.

I know that I don't want them habitually sucking up finite taxpayer funded health care resources that could be used on those more deserving.

Nice to know you don't consider limbaugh a threat to anyone. His mouth is his only weapon, gawd knows he doesn't have a brain.
