“There is NOTHING conservative about the War on Drugs.”

Government should allow cocaine, heroine, etc.? Have parks filled with druggies like in Amsterdam?

I think conservatives have every interest in the preservation and prosperity of society - including battling mind altering substances that cause crime, delinquency, violence and death through the churches, families and yes, through legal mechanisms that recognize the interest in society of preventing this.

To all you purist libertarians, I ask you one simple question, do you support any laws, at all? If yes, why would you not support laws or efforts against illicit drugs that are in the general and recognized interest of society?
