correction: 500 000 criminals who rape, steal, kill others directly or with their cars, including 100 000 who are "non violent" because they either plea bargained down their original convictions as drug dealers, who abused their wives and kids, but the "loving wife" refused to press charges, so the cops used "simple possession" to protect her life, or who are "non violent" because DUI is considered a non violent crime.
Nor are drug dealers responsible for the 3 million kids in foster care or raised by relatives because the parents are too high and drunk to care for their kids.
However, if we executed all the drug dealers, we'd have less social problems
Are you trying to eliminate the competition so you can prescribe more happy pills?
How about we execute drug co. shills for pushing their brain eradicating vaccines on newborn babies.
In an around about way, the author addressed this here:
Not being laboratory rats, human behavior is mediated by--and cannot be explained without reference to--values, conscious choices, and probity of character or lack thereof.
It is the parents that are choosing to put their pleasure before the welfare of their children, not the dealers deciding for them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and if we took away all the guns.........
Just like leftists, you drug warriors can only FEEL about social issues; you can't THINK.
I agree, but that's only if we included tobaco and booze.
Good idea! You take out Joe Camel, I'll get that Johnnie Walker guy.
