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?

I mean 1, you're absolutely wrong people can and do argue all of those things.

2 Narcan is kind of like abortion. Sure there's a time and a place, but if you're getting narcanned multiple times a month I'm starting to lose pity.

3 as someone who had a disease and almost died, sorry frick right off with that "it's a disease" bullshite. I'll give you mental disorder, but there is a difference between someone dying of cancer and someone dying because they cannot stop taking drugs or alcohol.
