Why are People So Hard On Drug Dealers?

Think about what drugs do. Think about why they're bad. Then you should understand, then again since you couldn't figure this out already, I dunno if you would.

Why are People So Hard On Drug Dealers/cartels? Why not asses the demand and not the supply? drugs wouldnt be flooding in from canada and mexico if we didnt want them.12Bullets

Its because they use violence in order to get territory control. Therefore they buy guns and form gangs, criminal organizations and things like that.

Probably because they kill people. Directly and indirectly.

Then I bet you must hate everyone that work in a beer company, or Ford which is indirectly related to thousands of deaths. What about those who produces weapons? Even your dinner knife manufacturer is indirectly related to several deaths

People die in drug wars. People die of drug overdoses.

The difference between Ford and a drug dealer is that Ford takes precautions to try and ensure the safety of it's customers.

And I've got a beef with weapons manufacturers too. And the primary purpose of dinner knifes aren't to take lives, where as hard drug use and personal destruction almost go hand in hand.

Why? Why?! I'll tell you a little story. A long time ago, in a country so not far away. Is making a big deal out of it because of illegal disruption issues, this regards with authorities, and health inspectors. This is a major concernment because people are so damned ignorant and don't know how to take care of there body, this regards with drinking beer, whine (etc). Now, this has no commitment for me, I could care less about other people having throat cancer, because YOU did this to yourself, not us. Not authorities, and not politicians and amendments. Man seriously, people need to get educated on this stuff. It's good for the soul.

There is no war on drugs.

Wars end.

Focusing on addicts is getting the horse before the cart.

The addicts are the unfortunate ones that feel the reprecutions of drugs. It destroys their bodies, minds, friendships, and families. All the while, the dealers are making tons of illegal cash and livin' it up. Dealers deserve no compassion while the addicts do.

I dont like guns too, just for the record....but I know what you mean, I just hold a grunge on the indirectly part because an overdose is not the primary function of any drug too. Choices kill people, just like heavy anti depressant has been the primary choice of suicides all over the world.

I'm pretty sure when a drug dealer sell someone a drug they don't want them to die, and the fact they don't take enough precautions is guilty for working under the shadow of the law, and that's where legalization comes in.

Because they have been brain washed into believing that the War on Drugs is a good thing and that it will be won some day. Before the 30's NO ONE beleived this kind of cr*p. It is all just subjective nonsense that the Govenment has made the general public buy into. Thank Nancy Regan for that mostly. "Just Say No". What a load.

[QUOTE="UnrighteousFury"]hard drug use and personal destruction almost go hand in hand.Truth_Dealer

I'm sure there are quite a few people that can manage to do hard drugs every so often, and step away just fine, but I'm almost certain that there are more who can't. And I don't think people smoke with the intention of killing themselves by it, but they're aware that it's a definite possibility. Same with hard drugs.

Also, it wouldn't be difficult to argue that doing hard drugs in the first place is irresponsible.

Is this even a real question?XD4NTESINF3RNOX

Luckly you are just almost certain, because the immense, vast majority of drug user will never die directly to their use. Overdose happens rarely even on heroin

More people die taking legal medications, than off illegal drugs. In that sense, it would be the same for me to imagine that most people who take heavy medications will eventually die because of it, but that is not what happens. The vast majority lives on to tell their story

I suppose, but I'd say that taking a substance that is inherently dangerous is pretty irresponsible.

Really? Then never drink alcohol.

[QUOTE="UnrighteousFury"]

[QUOTE="Truth_Dealer"] I thought I already did. :? Nobody does drugs with the intent of destroying themselves, and most people research what they're doing before they do it, to one degree or another. With the knowledge that many people can use hard drugs and not have it affect them negatively in the long term, it's proof that doing hard drugs is not necessarily irresponsible.Truth_Dealer

I suppose, but I'd say that taking a substance that is inherently dangerous is pretty irresponsible.

Alcohol is potentially dangerous, and even good for you in small amounts.

Hard drugs are inherently dangerous, at the very least, due to the fact that they're illegal.

That is why booze kills more people than all hard drugs combined....

[QUOTE="-xPANICx-"]so are you saying all drug dealers kill people? because you are definitely generalizing

-xPANICx-

Well, I suppose you've got me there.

Let me correct it then: A lot of drug dealers kill people. And the profession lends itself to violence.

I'd say most, but I know a few kids in my school who sell the stuff and have yet to kill anyone. I imagine that there are a lot of people out there like them.
