Like I stated. Kudo's to anyone that tackles their demons!! But a little simple mistake? A heroin addiction isn't a second DUI. Second chance? All for it. But give me a break. A former heroin addict stumping for the Nebraska AD job? It pretty well shows me how dillusional this dude is and probably doesn't say a lot for you either!!! Let's get real!!!
Thanks for that. I appreciate it. As far as a second DUI! There's no excuse for a 1st one! You don't know what the guys past was all about. He seems clean now. I don't know his whole story. Haven't read his book. But you do understand that Heroin is an addiction right. My understanding is that addicting substances mean you have a hard time getting away from it once you're on it. I can honestly say that my life is pretty darn clean. This is the first time I'd ever heard him speak and I thought there was nothing in his comments to suggest that he was still a heroin addict or whatever other demons he may have dealt with. Just because you disagree with him you're going to attack his past. Sounds like politics. I'm sure I'm not the only one a little shocked by your comments.
I don't know much about any kind of drugs. So I guess I find a DUI more offensive. There is no excuse for driving under the influence. None. You make a mistake that is fine. But I'm stunned that you would act as though someone with a history of Driving under the influence would be so much better than someone on another drug NOT driving. Somone may have to correct me on this but heroin is more harmful to the user isn't it whereas most people that crash into others while intoxicated usually come out on the better end of the deal and even if not the other person was still completely innocent. So if you're incinuating that i'm a former drugee then that must make you one that drives intoxicated.
