“Drug dealers should be put to death…from the street dealer to the cartel..”

Drug dealers don’t generally force people to do drugs, and drugs do not act on their own and force their way into someone’s body.

Instead, it is the drug user who permits himself to use drugs and allows themselves to become addicted.

Essentially, it’s economics.

Without that demand, their would be no market, and without demand there would be no consumer.

It’s also a dangerous misdirection of the fundamentals of due or of responsibility, which is not even to people but to God.

Oh if we only got draconian about this or that, we would transition into Shangri-La.

No.

Somebody had to get the addict started, didn’t they? Dealers have to entice weak-willed people to try junk in the first place. This is really one of those chicken-egg arguments.
