WAR ON DRUGS MAKES NO SENSE! new stratigy

[DJLink]

IMO(In my oppinion), most drugs should be legal, this war on drugs creates nothing but problems. Drug addiction is a medical problem, not a criminal act. The prices created by drugs beingextreamly illegal and criminalizedgreatly perpetuate violent crime. If you really want something "illegal"you can get it, but at a high price and with risk.


We could use all the money we spend fighting drugs and collect money form the legal sale of drugs(so other countries and terrorists don't get rich offsellingto theUS.This extreamly large sum of money could be used to educate poeple make better schools, pay teachers a lotmore(so we have talented teaching the kids of USA).


And as a an experiment, set upprograms(like a required fitness program and aJob to make America better(a lot of things need fixing in this country such as bad nieghborhoods and other social problems andwe just don't have the money or man powere to fix thes probles) my solution would"kill 2 birds with one stone"we would have plenny of money and we will also beable togive a chance totheperson who was arrested for drugs, to improve thier lifefeel good about themselves,instead of throwing them inpenal system whichcostssociety lots of money ruins people's live.Ifthe person caughtusing drugs(drug addicts only, puts drugs beofrefamily, job, etc)cannot complete such a program then in IMO they are a lost cause,and they should suffera greater penalty, like loss of cetain freedoms, but not jail unleas they are hurting someone besides themselves. Doing mostdrugs in anything but moderation is not heahtly. This usually happens when someone is bored,not happy, and not busy and in general doesn't feal good about themselves.


If you can't keep your priorites in lifestraight, and put drugs beforeFamily, school, work,exercise; thats darwinism and evolutionat its finest. Those people areusually doomed and are leaches on societyand having drugs illegal only worsens the problems for themand makes it less likely that they will ever recover to be a positive on society as whole, b/c prices are so high thatsome endupsacrificing anything to get what they want. and its hard to get you life in order from a jail cell.


The people that are the most affected are the ones thathave good careers, have they priorities straightor are on path pursuing there dreams. B/c they have so much to loose, if caught for having a little fun every once in a while, when they have everything else done thats really important. If they get in trouble they can loose everyhting they haveworked so hard for and thier futureis forever changedin almost all casesfor the worst. Even though they were positve force on society, our ldrug laws are negative force. These people that had their shit together are now faced with lawer fee's court costs, investigation, costs, felony convictions, no more right to vote, for something you volunteerely were doing to yourself. I understand with violent criminals loozing thier rights, but drug offenders, that is the most hipacritical bullshit ever. They were not hurting anybody but themselves, and everyone should have the choice what to do with thier own bodies.


Why is not letting felony drug offenders have the right to vote total bullshit? B/C Almost everbody in power todaypartied withilligal drugsin college or at one point in thier life, the majority of our presidents since and including JFK used illegal drugs, and if they ever got arrested they would have never became president. How the f**k to you think JFK stayed awake for 2 weeks straight during the cuban missile crises!

The US pays Colombia to allow us to come in and spray fields of coca and poppy. We pay them almost 3 million a year not to mention all of our aircraft and contractors down there. I was on a ground crew that took car of the aircraft and the pilots used to tell us that it was a joke. As we sprayed round up on the fields more would pop up, the farmers would plant banana trees in the fields and then say americans are killing their crops. We had Spray zones, fly but no spray zones and NO fly zones. The spray zones where the areas that the Gov't compensated the G's for killing the crops, the fly zones were the real crops and the no fly zones were the Gov't crops.





Go figure we pay the Colombians to spray in their country. ITS A JOKE
