"A far worse problem is meth."

Very true. Meth is dangerous and causes violent behavior.

"Very true. Meth is dangerous and causes violent behavior."

We just had a drunken meth addict (new neighbor) break into our house and steal all of our liquor. Meth is evil. I have too many friends who are enduring their children's drug addiction. Recently a friend sent me some photos that were released by a cop that compared "tweakers" first mug shot to current mug shots. It is unbelievable! After a year or two, their eyes turn dead, their teeth fall out, they age a decade and their faces get these huge red blothes. That's from picking zits and picking the scabs until it is raw. Sometimes they think a bug crawled into the hole and they keep digging.

I agree with liberals that the war on drugs should focus on the demand and on rehabilitation. Meth is easy to make. What draws people to it in this country? The war on drugs is not working, the libertarians are right about that. I think a better approach is to appeal to teenagers' vanity by showing them before crank and after crank mug shots. Show them a crank whore after she has picked holes into her face and withered down to a skelton. I think today's programs focus on what it does to your brain, and kids don't care about that. Talk to the guys about how it causes erectile dysfunction and stunts their growth.
