This is perhaps the most vicious example of "catch and release" imaginable. Catch and release these poor individuals so they can serve as a never ending source of employment across the spectrum from drug dealers to judges.   I would ask how much did that lady pictured pay for that meal?  What did she do to earn it?  Does she understand the concepts that effort results in reward and that self discipline (including avoiding drugs over lunch)  protects one from hazards?     If she is mentally incapable of functioning in society than shouldn't she be institutionalized to protect herself and the general public?  What actual good is accomplished by "warehousing" her in an enviornment of law enforcement and social welfare that doesn't end the cycle of behavior that is the source of the problem?
