racist, right?

and how the war on drugs is fought in certain communities (urban)

and not in others (suburban)

even though there is no significant difference in use and dealing

you can see how that is racist, right?

to JCM, I think the reason people support the war on drugs is fear from propoganda

have you ever seen Reefer Madness?

to see it now is F'N hilarious

but they did the same shit with Bath Salts a few years ago

remember we were all going to have our faces eaten off by zombies?

typical US fear mongering to fuel the prison industry, $$$.

I think you're conflating use and dealing, IMO

hunh?

decriminalization and youthful offense
Dec 10th 2014
4
none of it should be criminalized at any age.
Dec 10th 2014
7
      use vs. sale though
Dec 10th 2014
8
           i'd be okay with selling it being illegal
Dec 10th 2014
9
           selling a few dime bags... no biggie
Dec 10th 2014

                how will arresting a kid get them off heroine or coke?
Dec 10th 2014
11
                the kid could be in the same position on booze.
Dec 10th 2014
12
                     she could.... but she isn't
Dec 11th 2014
15
                          arresting her will not help her at all.
Dec 11th 2014
16
                               heroine, crack, etc.. should not be legal
Dec 11th 2014
17
                                    you realize legalization would come with regulation, right?
Dec 11th 2014
18
                                    I seriously doubt it would...
Dec 11th 2014
21
                                         your friend does that even though horse is illegal.
Dec 11th 2014
24
                                              making it legal doesn't make the drug cheaper...
Dec 11th 2014
26
                                                   It might but probably wouldn't.
Dec 11th 2014
28
                                                   what if i told you it's safer and cheaper to give addicts free drugs?
Dec 11th 2014
32
                                                        I think this is what a few European countries are doing now
Dec 11th 2014
34
                                    thats very sad, but arresting ppl for heroin doesn't help.
Dec 11th 2014
19
                                         nah, I think there has to be consequences in life...
Dec 11th 2014
20
                                              robbing and stealing are already crimes.
Dec 11th 2014
22
                                              even if you decriminlized it they would continue to rob and steal
Dec 11th 2014
25
                                                   we want legalization, not decriminalization.
Dec 11th 2014
27
                                                        This is actually a tough balance. We're seeing it with weed
Dec 11th 2014
31
                                                             yep...why would I stop buying from my guy
Dec 11th 2014
36
                                                                  but there is a point where the convenience is worth it.
Dec 11th 2014
38
                                                                       honest answer. I would get both...
Dec 11th 2014
39
                                                                            Right on. The market structure of it really interests me
Dec 11th 2014
42
                                              robbing ppl to support a drug addiction would remain illegal.
Dec 11th 2014
23
                                                   I like the idea of free drugs in controlled areas...
Dec 11th 2014

portugal been doing it right!
Dec 10th 2014

couldn't agree more, with everything you've said in this post.
Dec 10th 2014
14
do ppl that don't want legal drugs hate drugs that much?
Dec 11th 2014

I like trees, I liked opium, mushrooms, etc...
Dec 11th 2014

      my father is a dope fiend and i still want heroin legalized.

      ^ shout it from the mountain tops.
Dec 11th 2014
41
      not to mention the money that would be made from taxing it
Dec 11th 2014
45
           i feel that's the wrong angle.
Dec 11th 2014
47
                i agree with you...
Dec 11th 2014
