Of course they shouldn't be executed, but sometimes I struggle with how I view drug dealers. On the one hand you are selling poison to your community. On the other hand, in 2016, with all the negative press drugs such as cocaine/crack, heroin, and meth have received, if you STILL choose to use them, that's on you.
On the one hand, they are taking advantage of the weak. On the other, this is America and money must be made. And while I think everybody has a chance, of course some people have a much smoother path to success than others due to race or other factors. When I hear all the complaints about how Walmart and McDonalds need to raise their wages, what I'm really hearing is "these people have no other choice but to work at your shytty establishment, can you please help them out". Well damm, if it's like that out here in these streets for some people, where its McDonalds or nothing, I can see it from a dealers perspective a little more.
