As you know the KLA, al-Qaeda and all the Muslim extremist groups are financed by drug money.
You would be correct to say, ‘if no one used drugs they wouldn’t be getting the finances.’
You would also be correct to say, ‘if drugs were legalized the money from drugs would dry up.’
Drugs are far more dangerous than alcohol and more damaging. You wish to argue that legalizing pot would legitimize it and make it a controlled and regulated trade which would keep it out of the hands of minors, etc. Just like it keeps alcohol out of the hands of minors.. Uhem. Truth is, most of you just want to carry on the activity you should have been arrested for long ago without fear of being arrested for something so innocent as breaking the law. All this crap about the war on drugs being destructive is just a side show diversion - much as the shouting concerns about iraqi civilians and unilateralism is just a diversion to cover the fact that closed minded liberals hate Bush and will do anything to make him look bad. One argument serves another - like the notion of legalizing abortion so that it can be used in "rare" cases where the life of the mother is in jeopardy - a red herring argument used to break the doors down so that poeple could set up an industry of murdering children as a form of birth control. I'm sure satanists in many of those clinics are greatful for Roe v. Wade allowing them to murder children for their religion in the guise of providing a "health service".
Sorry, sell it walkin.
