It's been 40 years since Richard Nixon declared war on drugs.

If enough drug kingpins and high level dealers had been tried, convicted and summarily executed, the "war" might now be just a footnote.

You can't even keep prisons drug free so forget banning drugs in a free society.

Execute king pins and more will rise up. They're already forming armies and have more money than some nations.

Decriminalize and legalize and you pull the plug on the profits.

Nope.

The law enforcement industry needs the illegal market so they can stay in business.
