Tragic story. The downfall of America is breaking my heart. Liberals/Progressive ideas can be blamed for it. Wake up America!

[AmetSpeaks]

Tragic story, but not a rare one.

In Netherlands Liberals thought they weren't liberal enough, so they just went and legalized drugs.Today after drug trade and organized crime has ruined their cities, they are desperately trying to restrict again drug use.

Liberals meet the psychiatric definition of schizophrenia, trying the same thing over and over again, expecting different results every time, cause simply they cant learn from other nations tragedies.For god sake look at near by Mexico.

I was a druggie for 26 years. I grew my own pot but never sold it. However, I did give it to friends as gifts. Today I have been clean since May 22.1995. The first thing I found out after I got clean was that I didn't have to keep looking over my shoulder for cops. Cops were no longer a threat to me. I came to view them as friendly, honest civil servants who protected my family and our rights as citizens. I know there are rotten apples in every barrel, but as a whole, cops are descent people.

I'm sure if we "fight it to win" the drug Cartels will give up, yeah, that's the ticket. They'll never give up because of the lives of millions of people being destroyed because they smoked a joint... As they release sex offenders who are expected to re-offend. Nobody has ever broke in my place willing to kill me for my beer. Alcohol is very dangerous. Pot isn't. Cigs and booze are legal...Gov. doesn't care about us, it's all about control and money with them. Are you with them, Bill?

You appear to have the pulse as well as common sense on a wide variety of Law Enforcement and Political issues. I would really like to hear your opinion with regard to the “Department of Homeland Security”, also; Your input on the T.S.A.’s apparent attempts at taking over certain aspects of State, County, and Local Law activities. Thanks for the videos. .

You have my condolences my friend. You are one of the good guys. Wish there were more like you. I'm against legalizing drugs but I am for decriminalizing the possession of pot for medical purposes. Not for smoking or consuming, but from extracting the THC from the top of the leaves and making it into a salve. Yes, it is a gateway drug no doubt. But when used for healing purposes rather than a potential high, it could put the pharmaceutical companies out of business. But it'll never be.

Ok so someone killed that woman not drugs, And to bring up pot is fucking crazy. The tax stamp act of 1937 is something that me and my tea party friends find unconstitutional. The illegality of drugs make them dangerous.

Our country doesn't learn from the mistakes made in the past. Prohibition made gangsters wealthy & violent in the 1920-33s. Powerful gangs corrupted law enforcement agencies, leading to racketeering. Stronger liquor surged in popularity because its potency made it more profitable to smuggle.

[TxRancher1951]

To prevent bootleggers from using industrial ethyl alcohol to produce illegal beverages, the government ordered the poisoning of industrial alcohols. In response, bootleggers hired chemists who successfully renatured the alcohol to make it drinkable.

[TxRancher1951]

As a response, the Treasury Department required manufacturers to add more deadly poisons, including the particularly deadly methyl alcohol. New York City medical examiners prominently opposed these policies b/c of the danger to human life. As many as 10,000 people died from drinking denatured alcohol before Prohibition ended. Does this sound like the "War on Drugs"?
