1st) We really have no “WAR ON DRUGS”. What we have is at best a big joke being played on us by these politicians, at worst, another “FEEL GOOD” law that means absolutely nothing. Now, the City State of Singapore and the country of Malaysia has a real “WAR ON DRUGS”. There is a death penalty for drug dealing, or even the use of drugs. Because they saw what unlimited “FORBIDDEN” drug use has done to China. When SINGAPORE became a country, in 1960, they had a big problem with opium addiction. What they did was arrest every opium addict they could find and put them in a hotel in the city. They were supplied with as much opium they wanted. Nothing else. No food or water. Within a month, opium addiction was eliminated. Then they put a death penalty on ALL elicit drug use or sale. Now, whenever a druggie needs a hit, they sniff cow shit for their high. It’s not forbidden to sniff cow shit. Now that is what I call a “WAR ON DRUGS”

If we aren't seeing dead enemy soldiers, then it's not a war.

I'll believe it's a war when they can point to the bodies of drug traffickers.

Getting tough doesn't always work - it hasn't for Indonesia or Iran. And then there's the little matter of making the punishment proportionate to the crime.
