ok drug addicts have addictive personalities, meaning that there will ALWAYS be something they will be addicted to

if you take away the heroin, maybe he will start going to the casino every night or to the bar every night or get addicted to anything. there is no cure for that

substituting marijuana just replaces a more dangerous addiction, for opiate addicts this may be the only means of recovery but it is definitely not a point to be boasted about when debating someone on the legalization of marijuana
