It's called making an example out of someone.
Edit: Lots of people not understanding how that's exactly what cops and shitheads in power think about sending people on drugs to jail. That's scary.
They are more than happy to send your ass to jail for decades because of minor charges that don't hurt anyone but yourself. You're just a number to these assholes. They will make an example out of you if they can.
How many examples do you think are needed before people stop doing drugs?
Me? I don't think anyone should go to jail for doing drugs.
So then I guess I'm not seeing how it serves as an example..
Idk man. I was just saying how they think of it.
I think people thought you were defending their stance
That's the only thing I can think of lol
Yup that's exactly how it came off (to me).
Why, because I answered OPs question?
That's correct.
Lol that's just stupid
Misunderstanding someone on the internet is stupid?
I made it clear multiple times that I'm not the person that thinks like that. So yes, it's stupid.
If so many folks were mislead by what you said, perhaps consider that you share some responsibility in communicating clearly.
This entire thing was days ago, I really do not care.
Have a good one, my friend.
You too!
Then maybe stop making examples.
Hopefully they will. But we all know how much they love the war on drugs.

How's that working out?
Great. For drug traffickers, prison system and politicians.
Oh you mean drug addicts ... fuck them you don't actually care about those right? /s
And the companies they work for almost for nothing.
Just to be clear, are you asking me as if I'm a cop that thinks like that?
By sending them to ~~crime school~~.. I mean jail/prison.
