You do know this hasn't worked right? That drugs are just as easy to get right now as they have ever been?
I know, why don't you spend ANOTHER trillion dollars on the effort. After all, that is the government solution to every perceived problem; Restrict freedom and throw more money at it.
Worked in my town. Why isn’t it working in yours? Every public entity is going to have a certain amount of police per capita. Your claim that the drug war causes the need for more cops in some kind of control machine is bogus.
The only worthless lot is the DEA and you can certainly disband them and cut a lot of useless spending.
Legalizing dope may make sense to you, but it doesn’t to most sane Americans who don’t want that krap around their children.
As I said before when you live among scum, it’s like lying down with dogs, you’re going to get fleas. The problem is not the cops, it’s not about cost, it’s not about lost rights. It’s about being willing to live with scum-sucking drug addicts.
The blithering about the cops, the cost and loss of rights is no more or less than propaganda talk by the already addicted scum that wants it cheaper, that wants more of it, and doesn’t give a rip about how many other children acquire their addictions.
