Only if, the lawyer representing them can share the same gallows.

As I've already said you can feel as sorry as you want for the addicts, but my sympathies will always lie with the poor innocents that they destroy along with themselves.

The difference between this and the woman who possibly has a mental illness and possibly killed her children due to that condition is that such an illness is not her fault and not something which she has obtained by robbing people and funding a criminal empire.Drug addicts are often thieves and the drug trade is a multi million pound criminal empire which leads to millions suffering.

If she's able to inject smack into her veins, she should also be able enough to make sure she isn't going to get pregnant.

Was just going to say that, so very true. The truth of the matter is she is just a selfish individual who doesn't give a toss about anything but herself

she chooses to carry on & not get help then my only sorrow is for the kids not her as they did not have that choice

Hmm well in my experience drug addicts are very sad people indeed and I find it really annoying how people blame drug addicts for how they have ended up. Many people suffering from depression turn to drugs as a last resort thinking it might make them better, and the next thing they know they cant live without it.

The phrase 'most drug users are thieves' is ridiculous. Plenty of drug users are on high wages in respectable jobs. People resort to drugs to deal with their problems, so you see many are indeed at the low end of wealth and need to steal and whatever to get their drugs, but just as many are high earners in well respected jobs.

It is the dealers that don't seem to take enough blame for these things happening. Only problem is that they are happy enough living off their dirty money to need drugs themselves, and too rich off the business for you to notice them in the street, and they aren't the ones directly causing you problems so why care.

sorry but drug users do NOT get my sympathy im afraid!

A lot of people get depressed, but they dont resort to drugs, especially the type ya inject!

I have no time for them sort of people.
