It's worse than death camps. I'd rather have them just shoot me and end it all than stick me in a hellhole prison for 20 years just for having a bag of powder in my pocket.

Would you send your kid to a Nazi death camp that was known to be - "less harsh?" That is exactly what you would be doing.

I don't think that's an accurate comparison. I think it's more accurate to compare the Program to Hitler Jugund. The design and intention is to turn dissident children into compliant rule followers. To break the more spirited ones, very litterally indeed! The death camps are our very real prison industrial complex.
The scapegoated class in this country is not defined by religion or ethnicity. But we sure as hell have a scapegoated class. It includes most teenagers and all adults perceived to be illicit drug users. Even when it's right in our faces, people continue to believe the sterotypes over their own observation.
Case in point? Compare media/public the handling of Rush Limbaugh to Darryl Strawberry. Rush is a good Nazi and he looks like all the other good Nazis; white, male, affluent and rotund. Strawberry looked more like "those people" who we fear, but suffer to walk freely provided they "know their place". But it's not just ethnicity; not by a long shot. Tommy Chong sits in jail today for all the same reasons why Darryl Strawberry dissapeared into Phoenix House and has not been heard from since.
No, the programs for teenagers should not be compared to death camps. There's the obvious reason that it's insulting as hell to people who actually do have some connection to real death camps. For another, it's a grave mistake to think that this is as bad as it gets. Death camps are a different aspect of totalism. It would be a huge mistake, in my opinion, to overlook that other aspect of it.
If you think about why you hate me, you might find that it's not me.
