Yeah, if drugs were free they wouldn’t have to steal, mug, and rob for the money to buy them.

There used to be a time when the drug community wasn’t generally a highly violent one. Most people, if drugs were found on them, were simply fined and sent home. Now, they go to prison, experience extreme violence, and come out violent and generally dysfunctional.

Now, if you want to win the war on drugs, you will have to use extreme measures, like immediate execution for the crime of having a bit of cocaine on your shoes from having walked by some high bum.

Or do you just get pleasure at the idea of seeing non-violent drug users get super tortured. Do you go toned at night hearing screams and smiling?

I do apologize for my earlier harsh response, but there is nothing to indicate that current methods of drug enforcement is working, despite the extreme measures taken to try and control it. If it’s not working now, going harsher is unlikely to work either.

All we are getting out of the situation is destroyed lives, corrupted politicians, police, and agents, and a militerized police force more interested in taking your rights away than preserving them, and (early on anyway) minor drug users who end up, when imprisoned, hooked on worse drugs than what they were convicted of.
