The War On Drugs

[progressive hunter]

The higher the homeless rate goes. The higher the poverty rate goes.

you have that backwards,,

so youre OK with locking people up for choosing what they put in their own bodies,,

you know that makes you a fascist and worse than any dem dont you???

whats next?? sugar?? how about tobacco or alcohol?? if some one steals a car to buy cookies should they go to jail for having and eating cookies??

Today, no. They aren't choosing what to put in their bodies. They choose to put Xanax in their bodies and are dead in less than five minutes. A child finds what mommy bought thinking it was Valium. Mommy chose Valium. What she got was poison. A 5 year old girl finds a whole box of chalk at the playground, not even used. She's draws a pretty picture and is dead within a few minutes. She chose to play with chalk. She was poisoned. In every case the idiot's choice was used against them and they became part of the 300 a day dead by overdose.

OK,, thats their choice,,

ours is to become fascist that think we can control other people or jail or kill them if they resist

I choose to not do that and let them live or die as they choose too,,

you have that backwards,,

San Francisco says you are wrong. Portland says you are wrong. Seattle says you are wrong. Los Angeles says you are wrong.

how so??
are you saying people are homeless before they are poor??

No it isn't. They didn't get what they chose to take.

 

[progressive hunter]

No it isn't. They didn't get what they chose to take.

kinda like a child that finds a lighter and dies from the fire they started,,,

guess we need to make them illegal also,,
and then we have to talk about pools, cars and many other things that result in accidental deaths,,

Some people just can't seem to mind their own business - they want to force everyone else to conform to their preferences. Bullies, essentially.

What does that have to do with the thread topic? That's a no brainer. Why is it that the most homeless are in Democratically controlled cities? Their own policies make income inequality and homelessness worse.

Drug use is a health issue not a criminal issue.

 

[Moonglow]

China is using Mexican cartels to kill 300 people a day. A 9-11 every ten days. Maybe the Netherlands doesn't have a China waging war on them with drugs coming in by the Ton.

Those cities that have legalized or decriminalized drugs have not seen a benefit.

There are zero states with legal weed or drugs, with the exception of nicotine and alcohol.

Uh... speaking of meds, ....

Do you seriously not know when people are being deliberately poisoned? Are you honestly on the side of the nation waging war by poisoning the young of the civilian population?

The lizard people?

 

[BlindBoo]

Do you believe in laws or not? Or, do you just follow the ones you want to follow and ignore the ones you don't think you should have to follow?

Not ones that make criminals out of people for just using certain non government approved recreational substances. One that make criminals out of murderers, thieves and rapist yeah, all for um.

 

[Blues Man]

Most of those who are in favor of decriminalizing drugs claim that that would stop a lot of crime and illegal drug trading because it wouldn't be illegal anymore. According to this story out of California about weed, that hasn't worked so I find it unlikely that it would work if we decriminalized all drugs. Who wooda ever thunk that criminals could produce drugs cheaper than the government or private business?

California voters legalized cannabis last decade. So why is the illegal market more successful than ever?

Whenever the government taxes any product there will be a black market. There is a black market for tobacco, alcohol, and every other product you can think of.

I confess. I'm addicted. I must have caffeine in the morning or my head explodes.

Why is pussy so high then?

So, as long as you can justify breaking the law, then it is OK. Pretty much everyone can justify breaking just about any laws there are, including murder. If a person is a bad person and the world would be better off without them anyway, then that justifies murder, even if other people feel differently than you do.

Not sure what you are trying to say. Maybe you should quit beating around the bush and just say it.
