You are starting to piss me off, a little bit, not much.

Anyways, how many times have I told you social numbers are junk? No one knows how many people use marijuana. At all. So how the heck do they know that 30 percent are kids? They don’t.
Those are junk numbers.
No government effort will stop kids from doing drugs. Period. Just like learning, getting a job, staying in school, it is only the parents that can do it. You should not be taking Hillary Clinton’s “It takes a village( nee, government)” argument here on Free Republic.

Again, private efforts are more effective than government. So long as the government attempts to badly be the daddy in the drug war, things will get worse, not better.

Grow up. Demand others grow up. Stop looking to government for solutions.

"Those are junk numbers"

So instead we should go by your feelings. I'm sticking with the numbers.

"No government effort will stop kids from doing drugs."

Keeping drugs illegal reinforces the parent's efforts.
