THE METH SCOURGE

Terry Silvers became hooked on meth, quit his job of 19 years to avoid 
treatment, physically assaulted his wife in the presence of his daughter 
and is now in jail on charges of manufacturing meth. Yet David J. Jefferson 
characterizes Silvers as "one of the victims in this war." Silvers is a 
"victim"? Please! He is paying the consequences for his extremely poor 
decisions, but his wife and children are the real victims.
