when crack swept through inner cities and nearly destroyed the nation, legal or illegal had nothing to do with it. cheap, widely available and addictive did. thinking that expanding on that plan is a great idea is pure insanity.

There are places where they have experimented with decriminalizing and focusing more on rehab and prevention than law enforcement and it has worked for them.
The war on drugs has been a failure. Pretty much anyone who wants heroin, meth or coke can get it without a whole lot of difficulty. It's time to try something different. Legalize, regulate, educate, and rehabilitate. The drug problem in this country is a medical issue, not a criminal issue. We need to treat it as such.
