“She stood up to the drug world, but the drug world will hijack this thread.”
Only a matter of time.
How many “legalize drugs” folks will does one run into who are not themselves drug users?
Not many, I reckon...
As far as the drug war in Mexico goes, we ought to treat the drug gangs as Mossad treats the enemies of Israel...
I, for one, have never touched a drug in my life. The closest I’ve gotten to drugs is riding with a bunch of MJ users, in a van, when I was involved in selling door-to door. They toked and I sniffed.
We’ve spent, nearly forty years, probably over a trillion dollars and all we’ve gotten for our money is a huge prosecution bureaucracy and rich and powerful drug lords and corrupt politicians. Everybody else is chum for the water.
It’s not working. If people want to destroy themselves, let them.

My position isn’t in support of drug legalization, it’s about harm reduction.
I use no drugs - including the lethal mind-altering drug alcohol. I support drug legalization because the only demonstrable effect of anti-drug laws is to hyperinflate drug profits and channel those profits into criminal hands, with all the ills that ensue.
