    Pure, utter, irrational fear has amazing coercive abilities;)   j/k people.
    But seriously, there has to be a limit on whats acceptable.  With alcohol or smoking, responsible people don't go too far.  The addicting qualities are limited.  But drugs like Crack remove any rational behavior.  Make it all legal and it'll ruin a lot of innocent lives in the short run, but maybe its for the greater good?   You don't just use Crack casually like Beer, Wine or a Cigarette.  The instant death penalty is still the easiest solution=)



     

     

    Crack already ruins innocent lives.  But it ruins the lives of those who were going to let any substance do it.

     

    Believe it or not, you can use crack and heroin responsibly.  You don't do these drugs once and instantly become addicted, that's just a lie fabricated to scare people away from them.  You could use heroin twice a month and you'd do no more harm to yourself than drinking every weekend.  The problem comes from excess.

    Beleive it or not, there are a few way of doing crack (and I mean making it, not doing it) and some of those way produce a substance more addictive than other crack.  If you take it from the strongest crack YOU CAN SMOKE 1 PUFF AND WANT MORE AND MORE AND MORE until you become a whore for it. I saw it first hand.  A girl I know was doing the lesser one and was not addicted and then she met a guy who knew how to make it stronger and BANG crack became her everyday problem.



     

    There is not a recreational drug in existance where 1 hit/snort/dose/etc. = addiction.  Not possible.

     

    I'm talking physical addiction.  Strong willed people who have done research about the drug will not get addicted to a substance unless they allow themselves to.

    Right now it's cheaper for drug cartels to use current illeagal drugs to fuel their wallets.   If you introduce competion to their work that would happen from leagalizing it, they would look for the next illeagal drug(s) that's(re) likely worse.  
    The people who do fund their wallets with illeagal drugs have made it painfully clear that they do not care about human life, that they have enough money to do almost anything they want, and that they won't stop their business no matter what happens to it.   This is why I draw this conclusion, as evil and cold hearted as it is.

    Basically the Governement is deluding you that the war on drugs is supposed to go anywhere, becuase it's not because it can't.   They are just keeping things stagnate so they don't get worse.

    Actually it is the people who support the war on drugs who are the ones who make it painfully clear they do not care about human life, in fact, the only reasonable reason to support prohibition is because you think it's cool when people die.

    It is what prohibition did the last time it was tried, and it is exactly what it is doing this time around.

    If you like people dying, especially if you like kids being murdered, then you must love the war on drugs.



     

    No what it tried to do was put germans out of buisness. It got all its backing during WW1 when Germany was the big bad buy. And after a few years of no luck with this bill, everyone took notice that pretty much all beer was german and so to hurt the germans they had no trouble getting the support they needed to pass the bill. Then just a year later with the end of the war they all regreted their choice as everyone wanted to drink again.

    Why do people think that they will get a town of money when taxed? Drug lords don't pay taxes now so why would they want to later.

    If the Powerball lottery was like Lotro, nobody would win for 2 years, and then everyone in Nebraska would win on the same day.
    And then Nebraska would get nerfed.-pinkwood lotro fourms

    There isn't anything else for them to move on to because everything is covered. The illegal drugs that are in existence already cover the span from arguably bad to definitely very self-destructive/suicidal. Pharmaceuticals are the big thing in the US anyway and have been for about a decade. I will laugh if they legalize the cartel drugs only for them to faze out of popularity altogether.

    Legalize everything.  It can't possibly be a free country if the government controls what we put into our own bodies.  Arrest those who break laws, whether under the influence or not.
     
     

    /AGREE!!!

    Hey government!  It's my f'n body.  What I want to put in it is up to me!

    No, I do not take any illegal drugs.  And I do not think that putting non-violent folks in jail is a good thing.  Prisons are for people who are a threat to society; people who want to hurt others.

    There are already laws that make it illegal to use drugs and then do stupid things like drive.  That's enough.  Outside of that you could kill this whole problem with drug legalization.

    We are still living under prohibition laws.  And those cause nothing but violence!
