We have had people given life sentences for pot possession. Please! Lock up the murders, child molesters, etc. the War on Drugs has been an abysmal failure, resulting in a loss of rights, freedom.
Why does government try so hard to keep the leeches of society alive and reproducing? Even going so far as letting them to continue to consummate while they are imprisoned.
If the idiots on welfare want to kill themselves with drugs, let them I say.
I agree. Poor personal choices should not be criminalized. The consequences of drug use inevitably deliver their own punishment without the need to pay taxes for additional police, judges, layers, prisons, and prison guards. The "War on Drugs" is nothing more than a patronage game for politicians.
