Here’s a question for you all, you’re somewhere with a friend and that friend has had way too many drugs – they’re in the state where they no longer know who they are let alone what they were doing and they do something stupid – say steal a car, smash a shop window, punch an old lady, stab someone, at the end of the day it doesn’t matter the action, nor it’s severity, I’m sure you get the idea.
Now, this person gets picked up by the cops, charged. You know a lesser charge will be laid if it is made known that they were heavily under the influence.
Do you speak up?
Well?
Now the situation could be as small as them smashing a window and being ordered to pay damages and it would be as big as them killing someone and your knowledge saving their lives. There’s no limitation here but to your imagination. But what would you do?
Is it always protecting number one or do you have a line that you will cross?
This is something that has intrigued me for a while, in any illegal activity it has always been look out for yourself (and those above you) and hope like hell nobody below you sings when caught. Amongst drug users we’re all doing something illegal and for many people that something illegal often brings about something stupid.
Now if you get caught out doing something stupid, would you hope that your friends would come forward and help you or would you know that there is no way they’d talk. If your friend needed you to admit to doing illicit substances to the police in order to help them, what would you do? Where does your conscience sit on that?
I hope this is clear, it’s hard to put into words what I’ve been thinking about and no one scenario covers it all so I’ve been as broad as possible.
I've included a poll for those who don't want to actually write their thoughts but I'd love some feedback on how this all plays out in your own mind.
