I wish we heard more stories like these. It might dissuade people from getting involved in drugs in the first place.

No, it probably will not dissuade people all that effectively. That logic is part of the problem.

Well if nothing can be done to dissuade people from criminality we might as well not bother having a criminal justice system and put up with it.

>>adnam+Vd
The best way to dissuade people from criminal behaviors (in my opinion) is to make the impetus for the behaviors less attractive.

>>fhood+ye
The best way to stop people doing bad things they want to do is the fear of certain and severe punishment. "Getting involved" is not something that you do by "mistake", you have to want to do it first. The only "mistake" is believing you won't get caught, presumable because so few do.

Your first statement there belies the fact that you know nothing about psychology. I'd suggest going to your local library and reading up on reward and punishment as it relates to behavioral design in a society.

It's always so exciting to have my knowledge of Psychology called into question by a "DevOps engineer" in Minneapolis.
