Btw I would be thrilled to see the war on drugs ended. Can you imagine the sudden cessation of gang violence, the change in the inner cities and at the border? Mexico would catch a break too and that might make staying home a little more appealing to them.
Next up, declare victory in the war on poverty (it wouldn’t be unrealistic to declare such, I mean have you seen the size of your average SNAP recipient??) and pull out of it too! Of course considering the munchies in the inner cities at the end of the drug war, there might be riots over that, LOL.
We would have to legalize all illegal drugs, not sure I am willing to do that...even then criminals are involved in much that doesn’t involve drugs...completely legalizing marijuana would have an effect but there is too much other crime on the border and in the inner cities for it to be a cure.
If marijuana had not been criminalized to begin with I think things would be better today, I don’t think the whole “war on drugs” would have had support. I could be wrong but that is how I see it.
