good post.

For years my sister lived on the street, getting high all the time, then went into prison for stealing to support the habit.
She tried to kill herself while in prison .

I’m totally against it because of how it ruined the family and what it has done to people I know

I do not believe in giving the federal government the power to use force to impose drug laws. Like Prohibition, the result is the problem more than the well-meaning but flawed policy itself. Violent organized crime, unchecked and unconstitutional power to seize and incarcerate, and deterioration of the 10th Amendment are bad things. These things continue to grow in power and consequence, all while their effectiveness remains poor.

good post.

So you agree with Cap74 that the War On Drugs is not the answer to the drug problem?

I understand were you are coming from, FRiend. I hope we figure out how to fix this country. I'm a libertarian, for better or worse. But I'm not a leftist. I consider myself well to the right of the Republicans.

I read your home page. You and I probably agree on a lot of things, especially about history. We probably disagree on a lot too. We on the Right need to remember that we have a common enemy, despite our disagreements on some things. Best of luck to you and your family. We're all going to need it.
