@smurugan2shan Imagine how much more of an impact they could have if more of society gave them a chance #110fun

@Williumwithau Our world isnt perfect, but at least it is changing in positive ways. Thankfully we are moving in the right direction #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@digiauthor1101 Unfortunately its easier for one to make a quick judgement about someone than to really keep an open mind about them #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@jhunter1101 Cant imagine how that must have felt. Communities are supposed to make people feel welcome #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@jshafranGT21 @Sagashus Pictures are such an effective tool for changing people's perspectives #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@j3_engl1101 @Sagashus We need to realize that people who have dealt with challenges are stronger because of them

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

We need to see everyone as our fellow human beings and not overlook them because they are different from us #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

Its sad that others people's perspectives and judgements of you can limit the opportunities you can have #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

Its encouraging to see how much Dr. Levingston has accomplished #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

We need to focus on helping single mothers because helping them is also helping the next generation #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

We cant let the way we see people let us forget that everyone has potential #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

I never realized the discrepancy between how people cheer for fictional characters but overlook real people #110fun

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@digiauthor1101 So then why is alcohol legal? DUI is irresponsible and should remain a crime, so only arrest people who put others in danger

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@sduggal8 But less people would die from overdoses if they knew the dose and identity of a substance . Reducing death is morally right

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@sduggal8 If someone you cared about committed a violent crime/hurt someone else, you'd be much more likely to turn them in

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@sduggal8 My point is that its hypocritical for you to feel that someone should be punished for something as long as you don't care about them

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@sduggal8 Just because it works for some doesn't mean it works for all, 95% of addicts continue to use after prison, thats quite ineffective

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@Dauth_Ben Mass incarceration is also very costly and is not nearly as effective of a solution

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@digiauthor1101 If someone has an alcohol addiction theyll get help if they want it.Society doesnt strip away their freedom and force them to think about it

[John Zakrzewski @johnz_gtech]

@digiauthor1101 Wouldn't rehabilitation targeted at their specific addiction be more effective and ethical? How is preventing one from getting a job helpful
