Drug offenses are different in 2 ways:

1.) They're based on medical/health problems/dysfunctions.  Many times
either the user is high and thus not thinking clearly or so desperate
that their own health/life becomes less important than the drug.

2.) They are "victimless" crimes.  A guy snorting coke in his bedroom
is no direct offense against someone.  That's not to say what they do
afterward isn't victimless, but the actual act of consuming the drug
affects nobody but themselves.
