Now your using "two wrongs make another wrong" theory. There are say 10 people driving drunk right now. 5 stoned. Legalize drugs and that just went up to 10 dui, 30 stoned. 40 on heroin, 30 on crack, 60 ballin, 20 trippin, and my daughters chance of getting killed just went up. Tell you what... when you have children, then see how you feel. I may have agreed with you 2 years ago. Having kids changes everything. Youll see. You and Kel will see! :>

But there would be a higher percentage chance if it were legal and more people had access. See... there are many people that will not do drugs only because they are illegal. Like me. If it were legal, Id probley smoke pot and trip. But it is illegal and I am a good boy. So by legalizing them, you just boosted the number of users DRAMATICALLY making all the statistics jump higher.

Because you are making the increase in users jump drastically and then you are causing my families chances of getting hurt alot more. So them killing themselves is hurting me also. Or at least raising the risk of it. You dont take those chances with family. It all boils down to loving and striving to protect those you love.


PS: The reason the drug war is failing is due to political intervention. The drug war is another Vietnam. Get polititions to issue the order and then get the fuck out of the way. Police will do it their way in America and military will do it our way in columbia. That is the only way to fix it.
