I'm a libertarian that frequently posts here. I am against abortion, homosexuality and the porn industry. I am, however, against the war on drugs, as any well read and sane person would be at this point in time. The drug trade is going to continue whether you like it or not. The only question is whether Juan down on the corner of Main and Sixth is going to control it with his .357 magnum or you and I are going to control it through the democratic process. BTW, the Bible makes no mention of the use of drugs except to warn that one should not be a drunkard, and, of course, the Lord's first miracle was to provide a wedding party more wine after the last had run out. He partook Himself. So there is no Biblical foundation for the war on drugs. Much to the contrary. From the first moment in Eden when Eve added on to God's law in reply to Satan, saying, "Oh, we musn't even touch the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil," Man's greatest sin has been trying to add to God's law what is not there. This is what Jesus condemned the Pharisees for repeatedly, going so far as to call them "vipers."

You can win the war on drugs.

#1. Mandatory Death penalty for Drug Traffickers

#2. Close the Border with Mexico, Step up the Border Patrol with Military forces with orders to shoot those who attempt to cross illegally.

#3. Authorize Coast Guard to Fire First and Ask questions Later when encountering Boats that are running drugs.

#4. Use AWACS Planes, Satellites, and Spy Planes to patrol OUR Borders and the Seaways around our Southern Border.

#5. Mandatory Stiff Jail terms for those who use drug, make even a small amount of drug possession a Felony.

If Step 1-5 Fail:

Work on a Plant Specific disease that kills only the plants used to make drugs.

Invade the South American Countries that produce drugs on a large scale and destroy the fields, dealers, and runners.
