I’m so sorry. You are right people are clueless. This is intentional, and our government is complicit. Americans are being duped, conned, and lied to.

Once rare, heroin use on the rise
More people seek help; police seeing more on street

Opiates are now the leading cause of accidental deaths, surpassing car crashes and alcohol. http://elitedaily.com/news/world/prescription-painkillers-overtake-car-crashes-leading-accidental-death-us/

This didn’t just accidentally happen overnight. $Millions have been poored into drug legalization efforts since at least 1996. This should be a case study in social engineering, propaganda, and lobbying, disguised as citizen activism. Big Pharma’s political donations have turned the FDA into a campaign finance for favors machine, and the Fat Cat bankers and hedge fund managers who launder money for the cartels, may not have directly broken US laws but they still have the blood of American children on their hands.

When my child was less than a year old (though I had nearly twelve years in) I left the Marines to not be an absentee parent.

Your quip at me affects me to zero degree.

You and your spouse each made a choice.
It had really huge consequences for each member of your family.

Neither of you chose your son.

Yes there are clueless idiots.
Some cluelessness costs people’s children more than they should have to pay.

My car and my home have been burglarized three times since I moved to Texas. Zero parents who focused on their careers over their addict kids bother me when they get mad that I feel that the consequences of addicts continued usage reaches its predictable conclusion makes my life safer upset me.

No matter what job it was that they chose over their children.

I work the twelve step program together with some people who are addicts in a generic twelve step program.
I care about them. But they aren’t all going to get better. Some of them have stolen from me when I have given a ride to work or taken them out to eat.

Then there are the hardcases that have no interest in stopping what they are doing. They won’t work any type of program. They won’t hold a job. They won’t even bathe regularly, or tone their language down around kids and or stop making crude passes at everyone who strikes their sexual fancy. None of them are really a loss. Only God can fix them.

My condolences, for your loss. My son lost two good friends, by overdose, he was ‘lucky’ to have been arrested, for pill possession, now in his fourth year of sobriety. I can’t fathom how deep a tragedy it must be, for you.
