Illegal drug possession is against the law and many drug addicts turn to crime to support their habit. Others, impacted by the influence of illegal drugs, commit other crimes, including crimes of violence. One side says we should lock them up so they don’t continue to victimize the public, the other end of the spectrum claims that drug treatment is the answer to minimizing crime and healing the addict. What do you think?
