RE: WTF: Blood on Hands

Remember everyone condemning the Philippines guy for shooting strays and drug users and dealers in the streets?

I do! And all that condemnation... and now look, all the support.

It is savage.

You gotta ask where the problem stems from in the first place.

Laws of economics. Supply and demand. When there is a demand, no matter what it is, someone will supply for a price. The supply of drugs isn't the issue, it is all the demand in the US - but no one seems to want to deal with this. Perhaps rather than blowing up suppliers, they should walk through the streets in an emu parade, killing drug addicts.

Sort:  

Of course it's supply and demand. If we lived in a happier world, would people turn to drugs to anaethesize themselves? If drug companies didn't invent things for pain relief to make people addicted for profit? If we didn't have greed and a desire for money, if everyone's basic needs were met, would the drug problem be this bad?.
