If anyone wonders why the war on drugs can be called "hopeless", watch the film "Traffic". Drives the point home.

Excellent use of primary source data. What, are we citing movies as evidence to back up our points now? Please!

I could solve the drug problem in about 2 years.

#1. Make punishment for anyone convicted of selling the hard drugs death by firing squad.

#2. Make the punishment for anyone convicted of using or possessing drugs a public flogging.

How many little yuppie white boys are going to want to go through that? These two acts alone would make the drug problem negligible.

Why bother with convictions? Summary executions would be even more effective than waiting for a trial.

How long of prison term for those convicted of publicly questioning the WoSD? Will that term be longer or shorter than those who do not cheer with enough zeal at the executions?

What are you some sort of Muslim?

Everybody knows that the cure for this nation's drug addiction is to decriminalize it. Make it legal, and it will dry up overnight!
