PURSUIT OF DRUG USERS WASTES POLICE RESOURCES

Speaking as a retired detective, I don't care whether drug courts are
effective. My problem is that either way, you will have my profession
wasting precious police time chasing the Charlie Sheens and Willie
Nelsons of Georgia. As the Thin Blue Line gets thinner, and
pedophiles are thick in the chat rooms trying to meet teens in real
life, chasing drug users is simply insane.

Who still believes that the government can fix stupid? Families
should look after loved ones with a drug issue.
