I am always interested to learn how other FReepers think on threads like this.
I generally like all of us and always have.
I suppose “keeping foreign drugs from poisoning our population” is a little like “keeping guns from shooting people.”
We’ve got to just take them away, or have other nations do it for us?
Sadly, many will die.
It is, however, death by suicide.
That’s my view at this moment, anyway.
Here’s to those who turn away from drugs altogether.
I think that Western Civilization, and the USA as part of it, are in an advanced state of decadence, which is in fact suicide.
Whether or not decadence can be reversed once it has afflicted a civilization is an unanswered question. Donald Trump believed that it could be. So convinced was he that he risked everything he had to save his beloved America from it. But the forces of decay are strong, and those profiting from it have done everything possible to destroy him, his family, his wealth, and his supporters and have certainly done everything they can to prevent the reversal of decadence. Thus, so far the decadence continues.
Open borders, the poisoning of America with drugs, the entire "woke" movement, the Biden and Obama Administrations, et al. are manifestations of decadence.
The American People can save themselves. No one else can.
