How does one get to a point where they think drug use is a worse crime than murder?

People who think petty crimes justify murder boggle my mind.

Drug user: GUILTY, EXECUTE HIM!!Murderer: Innocent. Victim was ...a drug user!! Set that murderer free!

Uh... murder and theft is the crime. People steal for TVs, so does owning a TV justify getting murdered because some people steal, and in the process may murder, others for a TV?

Obviously not, because the crime is the stealing and the murdering, not the desire for TV or wealth or whatever else.
