Violence is never the key to any country in any way, shape, or form. Violence or even the threat of violence keeps us on edge, our fight-or-flight response is activated consistently and we as humans have no choice but to walk around with this ball of fear or knots in our stomachs. Support should be the answer to drug addiction, an addiction is an altered mindset where you are dependent upon a substance. We are so quick to punish drug addicts but not money addicts who hoard 1% of the entire country's money. Addicts need help not punishment, one becomes defiant under the confines of a society that ridicules them on drugs and even when they make an attempt to get clean. Hugs, love, community, and comfort is what humans crave; drugs take that place.
