Better yet, people should just quit smoking the stuff. That will save billions too, and free up law enforcement for other tasks.
We don't need legalized mj, there are enough pot heads walking around in a daze as it is, we don't need to encourage it.
Same can be said for tobacco. Use of drugs as a recreational vice is bad for your body, but it's your body. I won't tell you what to do with yours and you can't tell me what to do with mine. Alcohol and tobacco have been around for a long time and they won't go away tomorrow, or next century. Drugs are not going away either. If we spend so much time and effort fighting a losing battle, the real bad guys will take advantage and strike us in the gut again. Take the TAX DOLLARS and spend them looking for terrorists not drugs.........
Could it be that altering consciousness is instinctive - not only to humans but to others of all species as well?
If so, then wouldn't outlawing 'drugs' be the equivalent of making instinctive processes illegal? Thus, does this not make the WOD as reasonable as , perhaps, the War on Sex or the War on Sleep, perhaps even the War on Breathing?
Go back to the minors with this argument, rookie.
We need to leave people the hell alone. That would free up government to do it's only legitimate job, defend the rights of the people.
Oh good, maybe we can waste even more money on educating everyone to why they shouldn't do it since the national WODs has worked so well.
Same could be said about countless other things.
