Illegal drugs are stupid and everyone who does them needs their asses kicked. Everyone who thinks marijuana should be legalized is a stoner, also.cgoqszlolcano
Anyway, I think they should all be decriminalized at least. Portugal and the Netherlands have decriminalized drugs, and it's been pretty successful. There should be compassion and treatment for those who develop drug problems. Also, think about all the legal drugs people use to get through their days. The office worker running off caffeine. Antidepressants so people can function better. On the recreational side, people drink in college excessively, and can fall into alcoholism. There's plenty of help available for alcoholics, so why not take a rehabilitation approach to illegal drugs as well?
Lastly, the war on drugs has utterly failed to stop, and even reduce, drug usage. However, it is great for capitalism: making criminals out of harmless citizens, putting them into privatized jails, plenty of money going towards excessive law enforcement, and so on.
Nice article about Portugal's decriminalization:http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1893946,00.html?imw=Y
[QUOTE="cee1gee"][QUOTE="howlrunner13"]so a hard working mother who busts her butt everyday and pays her taxes and does everything right, an decides to smoke once in a blue moon..has to have her body invaded? comon man wtf Yes. She does illegal drugs, therefore she is a criminal. That's the way the Law works. Don't like it? Too bad. Why is this so hard to understand? Because it's a "crime" that doesn't harm anyone besides the user. The "war on drugs" is just a way for USA to make criminals out of some citizens and send these citizens to privatized jails to fill up and trade stocks of.Let's see.
Marijuana = illegal
doing illegal things = criminal
What's so hard to understand?
