I've had an interest in politics for quite a few years now. In that that time not one person has ever said to me that in hind sight prohibition on alcohol worked as it was intended. But when the words are changed from alcohol to a controlled substance like Crack well then it's different somehow according to these same people.
I would like for dangerous drugs to be off the streets just as much as anyone. But wishing won't make it so. But I will say this. As someone who had a cousin killed in a drug deal. At what point does banning something result in more damage then allowing it to remain legal? And another question. How can we come to this forum and say firearms are neither good nor evil and people are, Yet at the same time we label a drug as evil. How are people exempt from the issue of drugs being good or evil. A person has to bear in mind that most drug are quite recent.
At what point do we conclude that people should be allowed to make their own choices independant from govt. influence even it it means their own demise.
