to all the long-haired, maggot-infested, dope-smoking FM types..

That's his colorful description of leftwing hippies. He doesn't express an opinion that dope smokers should be put into jail any more than he does that FM types or maggot infested people should be put into jail.

"Let's all admit something." [...] "There's nothing good about drug use," he was saying. "We know it. It destroys individuals. It destroys families. Drug use destroys societies.

Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods which become consumed by them.

And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up."
