Actually, ProudArmyParent, I’ve been told that they get even better drugs in prison than out here on the streets (by some who have been there) and I know that they make homemade wine.

Ok people I was in this group of people thank u lord for getting me out, but none of these people hurt anybody or sold drugs to kids they mostly sold it to each other but 20 years is just crazy.Ive heard of people getting five years for manslaughter so I am praying that they dont get that much time for this. They all have kids and they just need a chance to recover because it can be done, I am proof

art here is your answer to, “but what about the folks that can’t and/or have underlying mental illnesses that the drugs and alcohol mask? and what if these folks don’t have insurance or access to mental health care?’” he will have no trouble getting all the help he needs to stay drug and alcohol (and very soon tobacco,) free for a lifetime. Not chance of sliding back into their old ways, all taken care of for them by the state at tax payers expense.

Here is a thought that troubles me, an inmate getting a 5 year sobriety pin while he is in prison. lol What choice did he have?

Some of these (I don’t know all of them) ARE very sweet people and some of them are exceptionally likable. They just happen to be people who have made some very bad choices. Some of these are also mentally ill and need help. Some grew up this way and don’t know any other life. Some are also bad through and through and always will be. No amount of punishment will help certain people. We all know this.

It’s a shame to see so many lives thrown down the drain. Some of them had so much potential.

I just hope that all the children involved will be taken care of properly. I know the kids in one of the situations are with Grandma who is a pill popping junkie herself. I don’t see them being any better off with her than they were with the parents. So sad.

One of these individuals has been a “Bad Seed” for a quite some time. At 14 years old, He/She stole the Parents brand new car. Took a joy ride with some friends and totaled car while running from the Law.
Later on, the person was in and out of jail for numerous drug/burgulary charges. The Parents always ran to the rescue to bail this person out. The Parents paid the Court fees and fines, paid for cars they destroyed, paid rent and bought them a place to live, which ended up a meth lab, and are now raising a Grandchild left behind.
I worked for years with one of the Parents. They always said that He/She was a “sweet person” and they would change. Years later there sweet child will now spend years in prison, and neither of the parents can afford to retire. They have spent 100 thousand plus dollars of there retirement and now will have to continue to work, along with raising the Grandchild.
Most Parents will do all they can for there Kids. But, if they never have to suffer from the bad decisions they make, and are constantly bailed out, they don”t learn anything.
My eldest Son, now in his mid 20″s, has made some bad decisions in his life. As far as I no, he is jobless and homeless. He does come by for some food at times. I will always feed him. The life he has decided to live was not on my Dime, and I am happy too say my retirement account is just fine!
Its called TOUGH LOVE

It would help if our children didn’t see everybody their age (as young as 10 and 11) smoking pot, smoking cigarettes, drinking whatever they can find, popping mom and dad’s pills, running the streets at all hours of the night and such, we might not have so much of a problem with things like this. This latest generation is being raised to think that the only thing that matters is out partying the next kid.

Polythenepam, you can send them to Japan to bail water out of the nuclear power plants, or use them in medical experiments,….never offer them the glory of serving as a member of any of our military services in “Iraq or Afghanistan.” I have many friends and family who have served, and a few died, to give these idiots the right to even exist flies in the face of any common sense, tax paying American citizen.
