Drug users are actually ill people
who need to be helped. Rehabilitation is one of the main things that they
should get. Instead of punishing and
stacking them in prisons which are getting full, the goverment should
provide rehabilitation for them.
Most users are actually victims
of persuasive peddlers and they suffer from consuming the drugs. Therefore, by
rehabilitating them, we are actually helping them out of a trap, which they might
accidentally step on. Then, they can start a normal life again.
On other hand, if we only arrest
drug users and send them to jail, it dosen’t solve the problem, bacause the
drug users will still be addicts unless being properly treated. Jails will be filled
up with drug users. Moreover, the users will still be users after released from
prison. They then, will be arrested again.
By providing rehabilitating
programmes for drug users and forcing them to participate on the programmes is
way better than only arresting them and do nothing on their illness. Moreover,
the prison will not be so full and packed up with user if the participating on
the programmes. Only drug dealers, traffikers, and wholesalers should be
imprisoned instead.
