Prohibition worked out pretty good. ...... for Al Capone.
It also brought us the wonderful Kennedy legacy.
On the positive side it did bring us NASCAR.
It all boils down to, are you FREE to do to yourself as you wish?
Either you're FREE or you are a PRISONER.
To deny some one else their FREEDOM, makes you a jailer, or SLAVER.
I have been reading the comments with some interest. In this land of the FREE and the home of the brave prior to about 1935 one could walk into you neighborhood drug store and buy cocaine and morphine (think Coca-Cola). Coca-cola was called it because it had coke in it. The country ran fine when a free person could buy what they wanted to.
Lets have a little rationality and a little less party line. The drug industry in the US is the 2nd or 3rd largest business. Consequently, you know that the senators, reps, judges, cops, federal agents, federal justice officials, and some military are all on the take. No large drug dealers get prosecuted. Watch the case and they all are small fish.
fine if you want to be ‘free’ to get trashed, i shouldnt have to pay for it.....when your ‘freedom’ to get trashed causes bodily harm to your or someome else, cause you are trashed government supplied drugs, or property damage as a result of you exercising your freedome, that then interferes with my freedoms to avoid such occurences, and that is where i draw the line....
