Even this comment section alone demonstrates that this is a very loaded topic and that's one of the main reasons purely logical argumentation won't help drive the discussion far. If someone has a person close to them that's had (or has) issues with drug abuse, it won't be easy to have a neutral discussion on the matter. What I find contrasting though, is that this doesn't seem to be the case with alcohol abuse. This probably stems from a number of reasons, normalization of alcohol being one of the largest, but I would also argue that lack of education is probably one of the highest contributing factors. Without delving into the subject of whether regular heroin use is or isn't healthy, as I simply don't know enough about the matter, I think it's good to educate people on the topic. Educated people make better choices, regardless of what they choose to do in the end.
