I think I will disagree with that- any addict in use is not in their right mind and is by definition "insane" and incapable of making a rational decision. I think it is time to call drug addiction a true mental illness and to have it treated with accordingly- by the medical community NOT the criminal justice system. Criminals prey on the addicted persons, and as their "drug of choice" is a controlled substance they can only obtain it by criminal means... put the crime out of drug addiction and address it as a medical epidemic... too hard for our pious and judgemental as well as money-profit driven society to really consider.
