[QUOTE="CHenry, post: 3131078, member: 6281"] Addiction is a problem and prison is NO fix for it. All non violent crimes should be treated as such instead of locking up people because we are just mad at them for getting high on whatever it is. I'm not saying make heroin available, just don't make a felon out of those using it peacefully. Distribution I think should be a different matter which in this case I guess applies. But the guy is still in need of rehabilitation, not training on how to become a hardened criminal in prison while still having all the access to heroin he wants. And 90% of those cases get out of jail to become our neighbors if they can find a job, or they end up back in prison. America has to stop locking up its people, taking their freedoms away forever, over a crime that hurt no one but themselves. Simple possession of any drug in OK is a misdemeanor now and $400 ticket which is a damn good start. [/QUOTE]
