Hey everyone, I just had to share with you this video on addiction and why the 'war on drug's is massively failing. It talks about the importance of compassion and never giving up on people with an addiction and how punishing people for having addiction is mostly detrimental to the rehabilitating of that person.

They give a great story on the life of Billie Holliday and how she was brutally persecuted for being an addict and an African American which eventually led to her death.

Anyway here is the video (if I manage to post it properly) .....

Let me know what you think.

The first part is the more political aspect of it and then the second half is more personal experiences.
