There is a really great documentary on dealing with drug issues in Seattle. It's called "Seattle is Dying" and it's on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpAi70WWBlw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpAi70WWBlw The short of the video is that you need rehabilitation for these drug users AND you need accountability. When you pick up a drug user, you give them two options: rehab or jail. Fail out of rehab, go to jail. Unsurprisingly, most people pick rehab. In either case, the problem is solved for the rest of society. We give people the resources and help to solve their problem without letting them jerk the rest of us around. It seems like a fair compromise to me.
