Nothing at all. I see and deal with addicts everyday at work. It's a tough thing to deal with. For me and them.
Whats so disturbing is, many of them are really good people. They've made a terrible mistake that's very difficult to correct.
I kid you not, if many could "kick" the habbit they would be on top of the world and at one time, many were.

I won't even start talking about the girls.
you really know what you're talking about. My only experience comes from managing a mens shelter but what you speak of, I see it every day.

If we want to hit on alcoholism, that goes hand in hand with a Coke addiction. The two go together. Majority of Coke addicts are alcoholics. The two make a great blend.
Sorry, never saw the shirt. Don't care to either.
To the OP - For the life in me, I have no idea what the heck being a Liberal or a Conservative has to do with Cocaine. My ex was/is a Conservative, as am I. Liberals are users/addicts too. The drug does not recognize political stance. Pointless poll.
I do understand your point but you'd be surprised.
Not all addicts "look" like a addict or at least the image people have of what an addict looks like. You can be an addict and be a high powered attorney. It's called a fuctional addict. Many addicts are functional and remain that way for their entire life.
Another point is, you may not know the person is a addict.

Why would you want to married to someone addicted to drugs. This most be a joke....Its like asking to be exposed to unthinkable violence and a multitude of STDS that are uncurable and potentially fatal.
Coke...sexy.....what's wrong the world today, and why do women have to be so desperate as to think drug addiction is sexy?
Really tried to skip past this thread....it just wouldn't let me. Knowing full well that this response, regardless of its content, is giving OP exactly what he's after: attention from us.
Then thought about flagging him to a mod, but what's the point? Free speech & all....Suppose I could start using the ignore feature...that would certainly be a good option.
But no, I'll bite. Mr. JJ, what is your reason for the OP? What is the story behind it? Anything, anything at all? If you don't respond, I'll take that as an indication that you're posting another one of your many inflammatory threads....or busy washing your white hood.....

How many "politically indused" thread polls is Jeff Jarret's going to make?
