The following thoughts were sent in from Al Arsenault, our friend and colleague with the Odd Squad and the Drug Prevention Network.
The 'successes' just seem to keep rolling in. I wonder what the
costs are for making drug use acceptable and even 'safe' for we all know
that when the perceptions of risk about using drugs goes down the
amount of use goes up. Also, what does it cost in terms of the loss of
human potential to keep people stuck in their active addiction rather
than to reclaim that proud and productive person which lies dormant
within the empty shell of a human being who us addicted to these
poisons?
They consider the saving of a few
people from the sea of diseases to be worth it all when legions of lives
can be resurrected from the dirty and deadly cesspool that the (now
soft-lipped) crackers now flounder in.
They say that we, who are willing to lead them into (ill-funded) treatment, lack compassion.
I
cannot wait until the day that the SIS 'studies' have been debunked as
pure scientism so that we can forge ahead with real and meaningful
salvation instead of Band-Aiding these poor souls to death. Perhaps this
is but a pipe dream.
