"Give me Librium, or Give me Meth" indeed!

I have to hand it to you - that is a great line. However, you mentioned the cost of a new bureacracy to provide free drugs. One wouldn't be needed. Can anyone here tell me the government's cost for the WOD's?

Do you think it might be a fair trade off to empty half the prisons of convicted drug peddlers or users, clear half the court calenders for drug offenses for selling or using - stop a vast majority of violent crime caused by the illegal selling of drugs?

Getting people to stop using drugs is like making laws to stop people from eating big macs or Oreos. Since they also give one pleasure and are also bad for you - do you advocate banning them too?

It is laughable, that legalizing drugs will somehow end crime.Junkies will still rob to support their habits, crackheads will still steal, and domestic abuse will still contine. I won't even mention the black market for drugs sold to minors, which will still flourish, unless you agree with fools like Harry Browne, that " ten year olds should be allowed to purchase heroin and shoot up, if they so wish"
