Door to door; ground to air ~ those expressions can have meaning in disposing of users, abusers, sellers, dealers ~ their heirs and assigns! It's a matter of political will and we don't see any in California. True - the problem is that one can picture it happening to actual citizens who own guns and there will be no shortage of political will.

Really... does it matter anymore what happens there? Ever hear of the Domino Theory? I will assume you do not live anywhere near California.

Druggies are the problem so why help them to get drugs of any kind?.
Being passive cures nothing.

Druggies are the problem Really? A bigger problem than the billions of dollars being put in the hands of cartels by the War On Drugs?
Being passive cures nothing.
Ending the War On Drugs cures the problems caused or aggravated by the War On Drugs.

The only way to get rid of the cartels is to bankrupt them by repealing prohibition on marijuana, which is the drug primarily used to finance the day to day operations of these cartels.Luckily, cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamines are utterly unprofitable, and the cartels studiously avoid dabbling in such things, so your plan is FLAWLESS.

Legalize all those, too. Hell, sell the crap in 5 pound sacks at Safeway to anyone who is over 21. My only caveat is that “society” doesn’t pay a nickel to clean up after you. The only possible exception is to toss your corpse into a garbage truck.
In the ER due to a drug overdose? You pay cash or they toss you out into the street for said garbage collection.
I am sick and tired of paying to babysit idiots. If they want to poison themselves, fine. But they do it on their own dime.

Ending the War On Drugs cures the problems caused or aggravated by the War On Drugs.
Reality check: Being passive cures nothing.
Reality check: Repeating your rebutted arguments doesn't un-rebut them. (And the War On Drugs has manifestly failed to cure the problem of druggies.)

Pot is used to keep the citizens uninvolved in what happens politically in our country. And spare me the sophistry of saying alcohol is the same. I already know that. So what should we do about alcohol being used to keep the citizens uninvolved in what happens politically in our country? (Note that criminalizing other 'de-involving' drugs does nothing about alcohol being used to keep the citizens uninvolved in what happens politically in our country.)
