I don't want to sound like "the bitch" here, but as for compassion, yes indeed, for their inner suffering which we all endure btw, as for being an addict, no one pushed that seringe in their arm but themselves! This is self inflicted and I think dignity starts by not putting urself through that kind of thing! So nope, I don't really feel sorry for the guy! These shots are awful indeed and I hope he gave u permission to post them in here. Now if he did, I have no probs with that, it shows what drug can do and it can be a wake up call for some! ;) Just my 5 pennies! :)
