Kinky On Drugs

Sound like fun? Well actually it is politics. Not near as much fun as kinky on drugs. This is about a different kind of kinky. Kinky Friedman who is running for Governor of Texas.

He is running a good campaign in Texas. He has the politicians there running scared.

So I decided to look at his platform [pdf] to see what he has to say about the drug issue. Here it is:

4} KEEP OUR KIDS SAFE. Texas prisons are filled with drug addicts who are sick, not criminals. Let’s get them into treatment and out of prison, making room to lock up murderers and sexual predators for the rest of their lives.
Which is pretty much where I stand on the issue. The difference between me and Kinky? I have medical evidence to back up my position. Is Addiction Real?
