I have to disagree. The victims are the
families and loved ones of the drug
abuser. And the innocent people they
kill with cars while driving. How many
parents and grandparents have had
bank accounts emptied by drug
addict family members. I've said
before, we tried all drugs being
legal before, prior to 1906. It was
a disaster.


That is not drugs. That I’d DU/AI or theft or other things. America is a drug riddled society fir 100+ years. Quit making us live under military police because of it.

Caused by drug addiction. Humans
are very weak willed, legalize all
drugs and it won't last a year.
It would be chaos.

What if parents taught their kids that driving is really dangerous, and their survival could well depend on them wearing seat belts and paying very careful attention to other motorists? What if everyone that drives expects other drivers to be compromised and distracted, and possibly impaired? What if we all looked both ways before crossing intersections?

I live near the most dangerous 4 way light I have ever seen, hard to believe how many Arizonans go through a red light apparently believing they have 3 more seconds before other drivers come through at right angles?

Just this summer they redid a main road running through this small town, some 4 lane, they reduced to 3 lane with turns. Actually reduced 4 lane to 3 lane. They also changed out several of the intersection lights without warning. Some went from the standard red/yellow/green, to a red/blinking yellow/ yellow/ green. Didn't even mention it in the papers, and I have to admit it can be confusing at times.

As far as DUI, it seems some of the breathalyzers aren't calibrated, as directed on the package. https://www.aier.org/article/drunk-driving-and-fake-science/

And would also change who collects the vig. No sense in letting all the Al Capone's get rich. Direct the profits toward some more worthy direction.

Even being illegal, there is no shortage of compromised drivers right now. As you said, keep DUI illegal, not that most of us haven't done it. It used to be the standard.

Plus let them get pure product not cut with who knows what. Get rid of meth labs in residential areas. Hard part is we have to accept if it thins the herd it thins the herd.

Controlled chaos. Make drugs legal
and people from all walks of life
will get addicted, just like in the
late 19th century. There were grannies
baked out of their minds on laudanum
and morphine. Little kids were addicts.
Can you imagine going into a pharmacy
in 1900 and buying as much morphine
and cocaine as you wanted?

In 1970 a friend gave me enough
black tar opium to have one pipe
of it. I remember vividly that it
was wonderful, everything in the
world was great, I was happy and
mellow for a couple hours. Luckily
he had no more of it. I totally
understand why poor people in
China spent so much time in
opium dens. It not only makes
anything bearable, your life seems
joyous..

Opium is morphine and heroin in
it's raw unrefined state. It imparts a
feeling of euphoria, among other
things. Extremely addictive, I'm glad
he had no more of it.

Is it now a goal of ours to assassinate the successor to Al- Baghdadi? How low on the terrorist command list do we go before we wouldn't kill them in cold blood? Who decides?

Hopefully the answer is yes

How about until they are all gone?
