Drugs are bad.

So I work at a drug treatment facility and I love my job. I feel like it is the only place I feel in reality in all of Utah because of the different people that come in for treatment. Guess what Utah County there are black people, homosexuals and non-members here and they are some of the coolest peeps ever. Mind blowing right? I bet I just shattered your universe.

I think one thing that comes with addictions is the stigma that "all addicts are horrible people" and that people should stay away from addicts because they are bad and have serious issues and "Why can't they just stop?! Gosh those filthy junkies!"  Riddle me this would ya? There once was a person who came in for treatment who's full time job was to watch child porn. Yes child pornography. BUT not for the reason that any old filthy animal watches that shiz for. Her job was to document every single thing from the actions to the door knob so that the courtroom and jurors wouldn't have to be subjected to that crap during the trial of the creep ass that made that shiz. Even though she was genuinely trying to do good in the world by putting those pedophiles behind bars, she got addicted to drugs because she needed to numb herself of the despicable things she saw and had to document. Would you do drugs if that was your job? I SURE AS HECK WOULD! Then people can just come back and say "well she should get a different job!" and then I reply "Well if she isn't documenting that then someone else has to! You can't teach no computer program to document the disgusting crap!" Isn't that horrible that people think that person is "just another junkie" when she is indirectly protecting the innocent children of those judgmental people? Not only does she deserve some respect but she deserves at least a thank you.

 In incidences like this I'd like to think that God understands. BUT I just DON'T understand how people just can't be more understanding and instead of helping others they expose the world to other's issues. People need hobbies...seriously. Everyone has a story and a past but I choose to help people have a better future. Drugs are bad but not all druggies are bad people. The end.
