You start off by experimenting with some friends at school because its "cool", then the next thing you know you are stealing to support your habit that by now is almost completely out of your control. You have NO IDEA on what you are talking about.

I am an alcoholic myself so I do know what I am talking about. I have been through rehab and I had the chance to talk to many addicts, so I do indeed know what I mam talking about. If you steal and go to jail, you don't go to jail because you took drugs, you go to jail because you stole. It is no different than if you steal so you can buy you some booze. You don't go to jail because you drink booze, you go to jail because you stole from someone. Stop comparing victimless crimes with committing crimes to support your victimless crime. Two every different things.

LOL... lets see alcohol vs cocaine. Get addicted to cocaine then tell me is a victimless crime. Its not the same thing, no matter what your sponsor says. That cocaine/heroin/meth will make you do things you WOULD NEVER, EVER do sober. You absolutely lose control. Not many people that were as addicted as I was get out alive or without going to prison. I am not saying I was not responsible for my actions, because I took the drugs, but when you are coming down off of those drugs, the pain is indescribable. You will do just about anything to alleviate it, and that will always, ALWAYS create victims, legal, illegal or whatever.
