[HEY4QDEMS]

Just speaking hypothetically, how much would that be like drug warriors that try to explain away the current mess?

I agree with you that we are currently in a mess, but legalizing drugs is not the answer.

If you don't believe me, ask the widow of the pharmacist who was killed by the addict trying to score some Oxy-Contin.

"If you don't believe me, ask the widow of the pharmacist who was killed by the addict trying to score some Oxy-Contin."

Why? Does her husband getting killed all of a sudden make her an expert on drug legalization?

Is that in the same sense that legalising alcohol did not clean up the mess Prohibition created? Drugs, including cocaine and heroin, were legal in this country for years. The real problems didn't start until the Feds started their "War on Drugs". 30 years later, we've got a bigger problem than ever and no end in sight.

Why would someone kill someone for something they can buy over the counter?(if drugs were legalized)

As for the FSP taking over, 20,000 can not take over, but 20,000 activists can perswade others to vote their way.
