When it's your son, daughter, brother, sister, mom, dad, etc you'll feel differently than they deserve to die. And don't pretend it would never happen to your family. Addiction doesn't care who you are or where you're from or what race or socioeconomic status you are. Equal opportunity disease with lethal outcomes.
This argument can be used for so much, it's "why won't someone think of the children repackaged".
If my kid committed a DUI, I would want lesser penalties, if my kid got hit by a drunk person I would want greater penalties. It's human nature.

Nobody is arguing for less penalties for drunk driving though, or theft to support a habit, or any other crime. He was arguing we shouldn’t Narcan people who have the disease of addiction and overdosed as a result. Should we not give insulin to diabetics because they couldn’t control their eating?
