CUTTING OFF DRUG DEALERS

I am writing after reading about the person who works for the drug
cartels, and dissolved bodies in acid. This breaks my heart for the
loved ones of his 300-plus victims.

Kicking a drug habit is not that easy, but there are ways if you want
to find them and truly want to rid yourself of this stuff.

All who continue to use illegal drugs, whether recreational or with a
problem, fund these sick people who will do anything to keep their
business alive, including putting your body in a vat of acid so that
you simply disappear.

I write this as a 47-year-old man, to our younger folks who either
struggle or recreationally use illegal drugs. These are the people you
indirectly support. Is this your wish in life?

If you are a recreational user, find a new recreation. I have found
that there is no such thing as a recreational user, but there is
someone who is in trouble.

If you are in trouble, call someone. Get off of this stuff and put
these guys out of business. This is the only way.
