@Gunmetallink12 soooooooo true.. our government is a joke, theyd rather spend billions of dollars trying to jail innocent people then spend money on transportation or educating our youth

The theory is that once drugs become legalized, the negative aspects associated with them (robbing, overdosing, etc.) will become eliminated. And in some cases, choosing to take drugs is, in fact, a "smart, healthy" thing to do. Don't let yourself be brainwashed.

I absolutely agree with you, I'm simply opposed to sweeping generalizations about drugs. Plus, if drugs were legalized, it's safe to say that the drug-related problems in low income/black communities would disappear.

Not to bring a race issue into this but Being a black male growing up in a black community in my opinion I personally feel that drugs was one of the major contributors to the downfall of black community still to this day. Many people are working class people in the black community and for the majority of them to waste they're income on getting high to cope with all their problems instead of providing for their families is terrible. If you think drugs are good then that's your opinion.

That's the silliest thing I've ever heard.

Many have forgotten that we have lost much freedom of action since the first world war.At the beginning of the 20th century all "drugs" were legal,nobody gave a rat`s ass what you were smoking in your pipe.There was no income taxes,people were living more independently in rural areas,on a family farm.This was the best system for peaceful living,now it has deteriorated so we didn`t improve as a society but have devolved.

@brutalhumandeath please do not associate the people of the U.S. with the U.S. Government.
It is time to legalize all drugs. The so-called "war on drugs" killed thousands of people. If an individual wants to take drugs in his/her home, no one has the right to stop him/her. It is individual freedom. Criminalization of drugs is a violation of civil liberty.

that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard. your saying that you guys are a nation of decency and the rights of others because you put thousands of innocent people in jail for smoking a natural plant when all it does is make them feel good. that alone proves that you guys are an indecent nation and you do not respect the rights of others. at all
