You do realize that from the time this country was founded until about 1913 there were no laws regarding the recreational use of drugs, don’t you?

You do know that due to the moral underpinnings of society previous to that time that that wasn't a problem in the least, don't you?

So we replace the moral underpinning of society with an uncaring, unfeeling, iron-fisted government? That’s your solution?

In light of the loss of moral underpinnings, should we ban the deadly (unlike marijuana) addictive (more so than marijuana) mind-altering drug alcohol?

BTW, you do know that southern Democrats who championed the 1913 anti-drug law did so to have a way of imprisoning black men on southern prison plantations. The big lie they uses was that black men wer doing cocaine and then raping white women. Woodrow Wilson, who was a well know racist, signed it into law. That same Congress and president gave us the income tax, the Federal Reserve, and the 17th and 18th Amendments.
