arresting children for having or using heroin will not help them
kick the habit. it will make it harder because an arrest is an inherently
traumatizing experience-- especially for a child.

and to the extent that this is true,
ppl with heroine addiction need drug treatment for sure.
they don't need arrest records and they don't need to be in jail.
that makes everybody's life worse, not better.
