Resistance is futile.

What do you mean? Last I checked they were still around here.

Oh crap I need to run to the mall tomorrow and check.

Maybe he has a problem with ONLY doing math?

After all, then he wouldn't have time to spend in his laboratory.

Wasn't there an episode focusing on him finishing his homework a minute before the bus was supposed to come?

Even Dexter hated the bullshit.

[Komodoensis]

Last year, there was an average of 1 person every half hour killed in Mexico, due to drug wars.

[Lithium]

That's pretty messed up.

For one of my classes we're required to do several hours of community service and the first event we have is to talk to some ex-prisoners in this rehabilitation house nearby. A lot of them are in there for drugs, I wonder how they would respond to that.

[Exeres]

I wonder how they would respond to that.

It's business for them. You might get a few remorseful people but they all knew how violent their work was.

[Kamak]

Not everyone that is jailed for drugs is in the distribution business.

There's a lot of users that get arrested, though that mostly depends on local law.

[Exeres]

Users create the demand, they're just as much to blame as dealers.

[Syobon]

So if I buy groceries from a shop, and the shop-owner decides to use that cheddar to buy a gun and shoot someone, I'm just as much to blame?

[Exeres]

That analogy is only accurate if he kills people to keep his grocery store in business, and if you are also aware beforehand that people die as a result of his business.

[Kamak]

So you think all drug users know what goes into making/shipping/distributing their drugs?

I doubt the average drug users knows how much bloodshed goes into getting them their drugs. They might know that there's some level of violence that goes into it, but I doubt most users even conceive of how bad it is.

Shit, I doubt most people even know what it entails to bring food to their table (granted, farmers and truck drivers aren't getting shot by rivals and government agents).
