        There is no justice in punishing people who’ve become addicted, and are just using to satisfy the addiction.

        You know who becomes addicted? The kid who runs/drives/rides in front of a car and ends up on major pain meds. Maybe ticketing parents who let their kids do that, without regard for the evidence of its dangers is a good idea after all.

        Tell that to the kid in my city who got run over by a semi truck a couple of weeks ago or the dozens per week who are admitted to the ER with scooter and ebike injuries.
