People make mistakes. Young people make mistakes. Many people in places like Baltimore, young people especially, ARE victims of the circumstances around them. Most police officers and firefighters ARE in those jobs to protect and help people when they make mistakes.

Drugs kill a lot of people. Arresting them could very well save their lives or extend their lives. The justice system is a mess. I would advocate for more treatment based intervention and avoiding ruining someone's prospects of getting employment... Not just ignoring it all together like this.
Remember the way President Trump actually tried to solve problems? We are that side!
They either know what they are doing or they are very stupid, either way they are going to cause more damage.
