Depends on what those Christians have in their Kool-Aid...

And I'm not saying, "Let's bust born-agains". I'm saying that going after raves and certain concerts is a necessary and logical part of the WoD, PRESUMING we wish to pursue the WoD. In either case, actual incidence of drug use or ownership would have to be witnessed by an officer of the law before any arrests can be made.

FWIW, I think it's utterly retarded to bust people for ownership of bottled water and glowsticks, or for the distribution of such at an establishment. However, where bottled water and glowsticks are distributed, there's a 99% chance that there's X and meth being used very nearby.

I find it hilarious, for example, that you can legally buy bongs, under the pretense that you can use them for tobacco. Even if, in theory, somebody out there at some point used a bong for tobacco, the vast overwhelming majority of bong sales are for pot. The DEA knows this full well, but bongs stay legal just 'cuz it's completely not worth the trouble of prohibiting them. Besides, by keeping tabs on who's buying bongs, you'll learn who's doing pot. That's why I build mine out of old plumbing equipment... :)

Basically all of the fractured behavior and acts of unintegrated values is the result of many people wanting to temporarily distance themselves from life on Earth, and others wanting to stop them using a species of force not appropriate to the task. That force had been tried before and failed before with exactly the same problems.

Using that force is like administering a medicine against social flu labeled, Side Effects: ptituitary cessation, bone deterioration, heart seizure, muscular atrophy, death.

The most you can reasonably do is educate people with true data, fully verified - not asinine lies calculated to frighten. Let them make their own choices and teach their children. Let those who want to die, die, and levy criminal penalties against those who damage others while on drugs, like alcohol.

That's the one thing we haven't tried. The drug consciousness really began when some people were getting addicted to opium derivatives in patent medicines because they had no information on the dangers. Later people were dieting on amphedamines and had no knowledge of the consequences.

I believe few people will stick their heads into a lion's mouth, if they know it's a lion's mouth. Those who want to challenge the odds know the stakes.
