I remember America before marijuana became widespread—it was better then. Before the pot revolution few families had members who were drug users. After the pot revolution drugs of all kinds proliferated resulting in early deaths, broken families and abused children. I have a niece who got involvled in drugs in 1970s she was murdered at the age of forty after using drugs for many years, she was locked up many times, had numerous pregnancies and abortions and ended up dead on the streets after a beating. An uncle of my son-in-law died of a drug overdose after using drugs for many years. His life was a slow tailspin in which he lost his business, his wife and his children, stole money from his own family and ended up living in the streets where he died.
This insanity began in the late 1960s and it hasn’t stopped since.
If anyone has had problems with drugs or knows someone who does, will you share your story with us?
Marijuana didn’t cause the decline of Western civilization. At most, it is a symptom.
More to the point, the cure of armed thugs smashing down doors of innocent people is worse than the symptoms.
