In response to the alcohol & tobacco companies- these are LEGAL produts and perscrption drugs are legal when taken by the person perscribed to. HOWEVER ILLEGAL narcotics are what they are ILLEGAL!
No one blames the dealer completely- but they took part in something that lead to a death. It's no different than someone helping a suicidal person hang themselves??
This is an age old debate that will have many different opinions but the outcome will be far better if drug dealers feel stiffer penalties PERIOD!
As far as mothers are concerned- you can preach to your children & you SHOULD but peer pressure is there. I hope your child does steer clear of drugs- but the reality is always there. There iS always A POSSIBILITY.`
