Should junkies be considered disabled and afforded the same rights/protections as actual disabled people?
I saw a story on FOX news on how newport beach was enacting some ordinance to requiring drug treatment homes/sober homes to file for permits and they mentioned that in California that junkies are considered disabled.
I say hell no,junkies should not be considered disabled, willfully taking an addictive substance should not get you disabled status.Even if you are no longer a junky you still should not be considered disabled. If a employer does not want to hire someone with a drug habit or who has had a drug habit then that is the employer's business.junky
