Show Notes

What is compassion in drugs and addiction?

Compassion that avoids consequences for committing a crime is not compassion, it is cruel.  Very Cruel – to the victim and the perpetrator.

The Homeless, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act, YES on Prop 36,  will bring more compassion to Californians through deterrence and bringing back drug courts.

Listen to someone who works with people who have serious addiction that resulted in crimes.
