Unsupported claims?

Yes, yours, in post #7.

The war on drugs has been lost.

A war is lost when it produces no clear gains and substantial collateral damage---such as deaths of innocents in drug-turf wars; deaths of users due to impurities or unexpectedly high potencies; enrichment of criminals; corruption of the justice system by enriched criminals; and lessened respect for the law in general.

Hate to tell you this Baghdad Bob but your dope is still illegal, the war on drugs is still in full swing and except for a handful of libertarians no one really cares in this country.

Wow! That describes the first few months of our involvement in WWII.
