I dont understand what is so hard to realize about what you said... People dont start taking drugs because they are addicted. They start them because of the euphoric feeling that is associated with that particular drug.

Some people are addicted to sex, stealing, work, dogs, computers, gambling, and a whole lot of other things. So if someone who is "addicted" to stealing takes something, than they should be punished. If someone who is addicted to sex rapes someone, they should be put to death. If someone who is addicted to work to the point where they ignore their wife/husband on a continuous basis , than sometimes their spouse will leave them.

The point that im trying to make is that there has to be a balance. For every action, there is a reaction. The world doesnt take excuses on any level as a means to forget the harms or problems you put on others.

If i was addicted to gambling to the point where i took speed to stay up all night and day on a constant basis, and than i became far into debt with both drug dealers, and loan sharks, and than became a thief and accidently killed someone trying to get the money to pay off my "debts". Should i not have to face the consequences for my actions?

Education is the key.
