It's obvious if you watch the video that this dude has serious emotional issues. He's a sick person, being punished for breaking an unjust law. And on top of that, the penalty is absurd.

3rd drug related offense in 3 consecutive years. Jolly is a poor excuse for an Aggie and I hope he gets help.

He violated probation twice. No matter what you think of the law, dude is a dumbass.

It's not unfair. It's the same thing with every drug addict, "I want to get clean, blah blah blah." Very few actually take advantage of the various alternative adjudication methods. It's a shame, and everyone wants addicts to get clean, but after a while excuses just fall on deaf ears. (I am by no means saying I agree with any or all US drug laws).

he's broken the law multiple times and broken the terms of his probation multiple times. he gets what he deserves.

Yes, that is a totally retarded opinion. It can't be a disease because the user puts themselves in the predicament.

That's why herpes isn't a disease, because Johnny thought condoms were too expensive.

No, but he wanted to have sex. Just like Johnny's brother Joseph wanting to get an opiate buzz from some morphine.

so neither require a conscious decision on the part of the person? Wow, who knew alcoholics came that way without ever taking a drink.

They both require a conscious decision, but I really don't see how that refutes addiction as a disease. Both herpes and addiction start with a foolish string of decisions. That doesn't change what the end product is.

Rehab, detoxing, and dependence therapy exist because?

Kick a romance with opium and then say it's a simple matter of "up and quitting." You also have to factor that most addictions stick with someone for a lifetime.
