""I didn't think when I started smoking pot that I'd be shooting heroin and cocaine two years later," said Justin, a recovering addict who also asked that we withhold his last name. "

Poor Justin; just another victim of the devil weed. I'm sure the DEA would never create fake characters for its press releases on the importance of the drug war.

And by all means, let us continue to criminalize narcotics addicts and restrict access to painkillers. I would rather a thousand people in real pain from deadly illnesses go without comfort than one junkie get high. Onward, America!
