BestXXXPorn · 06-21-2010, 02:33 PM

I for one am hoping that this legislation passes and it calls into question the entirety of the "War on Drugs"...

I'm pro legalizing EVERYTHING... but before most of you flip your shit, hear me out ;)

We have no control over the demand on illegal drugs. There will ALWAYS be a demand, regardless of what you do. The only consequence of major drug busts is the cost of drugs goes up. Nobody is going to quit...

Here's what we SHOULD be focusing on and things we have within out power to change:

1) Decrease drug related violence
2) Decrease the spread of disease

When I refer to drug related violence I mean ALL drug related violence... from street gangs to muggings to burglaries to whatever...

Now imagine this scenario: All drugs are made un-illegal, I phrase it that way for a reason. Marijuana could be purchased at any store with a license (similar to alcohol) however hard drugs that are chemically addictive would be available from clinics and doctors only. Let's look at what this accomplishes:

1) All gangs pretty much dry up as they no longer have a viable product
2) Nobody needs to murder/mug/rob/etc... any person for their "next fix". They can go to a clinic and purchase the drugs for much cheaper and pick up
3) Clean needles! Reduce the spread of disease...

So there we have the two main goals accomplished. I would vote that we use a portion of marijuana sales tax to help fund the needles and narcotics that the clinics need to be able to give out. I am all for reducing the amount of violence that surrounds the illegal drug market even at the cost of minimal tax money from drug sales to fund the narcotics that addicts need...

Anyway now I'm rambling but it seems there is just too much money in the war on drugs for them to ever stop and consider something like this...
