I don’t care if you write a book here about the glories of drug usage, I still don’t agree with you.
I know from first-hand experience the effect of drugs (and not just pot), so you are talking to the wrong person. I’ve seen the effects on friends also. And we’ve all seen the horrible pictures of meth users, heard multitudes of stories of drugheads, even simple pot users, who waste away their lives.
Sorry, no way will I think that legal drug usage will help this country or any country. Save your book for someone else.
I didn't glorify drug use at all and I never would. My post was too long, but there are some complex issues involved here. We haven't really put our minds to this problem. Instead everyone just uses their gut and so many like you think you have the simple solution that will fix everything. Of course when you think it out these simple plans don't hold up, but people don't think it out. That's why we've had so much knee-jerk illegal drug legislation that has only added to our problems. Now we're finally getting to the point where our prisons are packed beyond capacity and we can't afford to build new ones, so the powers that be are thinking about other strategies that don't cost so much. Thank goodness for that.
