Well, so be it. That's the result of the choices you made. If I assault a bunch of women, it's then going to be more challenging for me to find a date on a Friday night. That's what keeps people from committing crimes - your life is probably going to suck after.

I've got a problem with the # of people in for drug offenses - it isn't high enough. 511 people have died from fentanyl ODs in SF alone this year.

If you’re so worried about fentanyl deaths then start with the pharmaceutical industry that with legal backing made OxyContin knowing what it would cause. But it saved them from losing 25% of their profits so who cares!
