Here’s a conservative solution:

1. Legalize the drugs. Tax the hell out of them.

2. Abolish the beaurocracy surrounding them.

We’d get:

1. tax revenues

2. this crime would dry up in seconds

(And no, I don’t do drugs. Never have, never will. I just am pissed we’re wasting tax money on trying to protect morons while turning the southwest USA into a free-fire zone.)

And the libtards would be too stoned to vote. Diabolical.

What you propose makes a hell of a lot of sense.

Which is of course the very reason it will never, ever be implemented.

I am split on this but since so MANY teens think there is nothing wrong with Weed I am troubled about the quality of weed they are procuring for their personal use. It could be laced with crystal meth or some other dangerous drugs without their knowledge. This could be the prime reason that it is such a “gateway” drug. The dealer would want to get the kids “hooked” without their knowledge.

Sure, I’m all for it as long as I have the power to use unbridled deadly force without criminal liability to protect myself, family and property from a surge of stoners driving the streets and highways puffing on and sucking down legal and tax evading black market drugs.

In other words, let us become like the drug dealers in aiding a abetting the death of our youth. I have a better idea. Let’s have a real drug war and start executing drug dealers. That would be a real war and I suspect have quite a curb on the dealers who are destroying the youth of this nation.
