“Plus the war on drugs in full effect..”
No, it is not or we would have stopped idiots from cooking/using them instead of stopping law abbiding citizens from buying ALLERGY pills!
As far as I’m concerned we should build BIGGER prisons just for DRUGGIES! They are more harmful than petty thieves! They steal, they lie, they harm innocent people and ruin families. They think of no one but themselves and where and how they get their next “fix”, nothing else matters. If some drug cartel slits a family members throat, they don’t care as long as they can get high!
Druggies should rot in jail, IMO, since they cost billions of taxpayers dollars and many, many lives. They ruin not only communities but entire towns/cities and anything they touch.
They are the most selfish people to ever walk the face of the earth, everyone else be damned. Lock up druggies and you solve a lot of problems!
And how exactly would you stop it?
Drugs are easily available in prison and North Korea, how do you expect to be able to stop it?
Note that most of the issues you’re talking about are all consequences of the war on drugs, and not the drugs themselves. Cartels only exist because of the illegality of some drugs. If they were legal, druggies wouldn’t have to steal.
Right and prohibition worked real well..
