ADDICTS SHOULD SHOW SOME GRATITUDE
During the Great Depression, hundreds of thousands of people faced
unbearable circumstances with courage and hard work.
Making it easy for drug addicts to take the easy way out of their
problems belittles that example.
Helping them continue their habits insults the many people who face
adversity squarely without assistance.
If they were even grateful they would not smear the neighbourhood
with excrement.
It's time to hold people accountable for their actions instead of
allowing them to drag our city down into their squalor.
