The only person these low lifes will be robbing when they're behind bars are other incarcerated low lifes. It's a match made in heaven :)

Fiddy you are like most people. You are not even close to knowing the real facts. Just check out
the very detailed latest actual statistics from out West in the link below.
Just a few facts contained in this data. Alcohol accounted for a bit over 25% of overdose deaths.
And year after year the vast majority of overdose deaths are ordinary working people in their own
residences with no one around to help them when they overdosed. Most of these unfortunate
people got hooked to pain killers all too frequently prescribed by doctors for chronic pain from
worksite injuries.
Street people which are shown on all the media are only a very small fraction of the actual people
overdosing each day, week, month, year.
Overall this is a terribley sad epidemic which seems to still be increasing.
