Ohhh Jeeezus....

I've erased three posts already.

Nanny State= Gvt controls choice.

Until you take it upon yourself to jump tracks ..then Nanny State takes care of you because you're like a child. Can't control your actions or decisions. You have no fault/blame in your condition.

Well, I guess I don't understand how a self inflicted learned action becomes a 'disease'.

I must be daft, find it hard to sympathize.

Serious question....

What other addiction to we provide them safe places to actually partake of what their addicted to?

We don't give alcoholics their own room to drink, we don't give sex addicts rooms with people, and we don't give those addicted to food a room with a well-stocked fridge & pantry.

And how does this statement, I see no sin in providing clean, safe, supervised areas for those who are sick to address their illness and to be provided with assistance in achieving remission , which no one would disagree with, correlate to actually supplying the drugs and an opportunity to use them?

I won't even go into how this is actually aiding and abetting a crime.

By the way, the scriptural quote & judgement is priceless, since One of the foundations of Jesus' ministry is to not judge others.

(what you're doing is actually called proof texting)

Have you been listening to my conversation? I've made this exact argument to others many times. Round up all the homeless people off the streets and separate the drug and alcohol addicts from the people who want help. Provide all of the drugs for free out of the huge stock piles that we have already confiscated. This will also send the drug prices crashing so it won't be profitable to the drug cartels anymore.

Thank you for the response. While I disagree about the addiction preceeding their first dose I am curious about the legal aspect.

Is it ok to not only ignore state, local and federal laws we may not want to follow? What will be the impact from that? If something is addicting after the first use, should that then be a basis for ignoring laws about it?

Well then....

We can safely say that these other non-productive illegal actions are also a sickness or addiction.

Gang Banging.....Car Jacking.......Stealing......Murder......Human Trafficking.....Drug Dealing

These should fall in the "Its ok its an illness" Column an well.

Of course Child Pron is already considered an Illness/addiction but the Libs haven't seen fit to make the actual act semi-not illegal when its been deemed the person committing the act is "ILL" and needs help.

Helping addicts continue their habit is NOT ok, There has to be a line drawn.

Disease, addiction, dependency etc bullshit etc etc.....

All comes down to choice.
John Smith didn't just develop a "disease" and only way to treat it was stabbing his arm with a needle.

Everyone wants to be PC and a so called human with compassion.
It isn't working, being nice is not working!
John Smith is an addict of his own making, nobody else's fault but his own, and he shouldn't be the responsibility of taxpayers.

Some in society wants addiction accepted and normalized, all in the name of caring and compassion, drug dependency is climbing because of it.
Stigmatized and abolishment is negative, negative reinforcement works a whole helluva lot better than saying kind words of support while handing out a syringe full of dope enabling an addict that put him/herself in this position to start with.
But people keep saying it's a disease, he has a disease.....

I've seen memes of giving drug addicts supplies and drug for their "disease" for not a damn cost to them. What about giving free shit to other diseases? Cancer, diabetes, heart problems and all the other life changing diseases that cripple actual in the moment families? Why does drug addicts get a hand up, while some parent or spouse is left to slowly die because they just don't have the money or great insurance to pay for the full blown treatment to live?

Tired of the PC shit. Sticking your arm with dope was a choice, not a disease, you are a druggy. And if taxpayers are paying for your habit, you are then a burden to society and my money that should go on my dinner plate is being used so you can get high.
And now WHO is labeling those that play video games for extended periods of time as having a disease.
When the fuck will those in society start taking responsibility for their own actions, and hold others accountable?

Bring back the Scarlet Letter for illegal acts and the boat should right itself.

But...

The way this country is headed it'd be worn as a badge of honor.

To this I say Fucking A right!!!

Can't we just.....pave an island. Drop em there. Once a month, drop food. Maybe even water.

McNeil Island????

No that was last weekend in North Bend.

W.H.O. declares video game addiction a disease

So, where's my free cheetos, a free comfy couch, a free PS4, and my free Mountain Dew that I'm owed?

I'm just an innocent man with a dreadful disease and I need help!

Well, if you don't like the services Seattle offers, they'll (taxpayers) buy you a ticket to the city of your choosing:
