Just legalize them and tax them. Make them safer. There is an additive to put in cocaine to stop heart attacks. Scale back heroin toxicity. Act like they are alcohol. Take the money used in the Stupid War and use for treatment-- treat it as a public health problem instead of eroding the Constitution. Pot and shrooms and X all are not harmful at all. The new X on the street is what is killing people. IMHO, the War is nothing but a power play by the Fed to erode our Rights. Did you know that DuPont patented nylon in '35 (or so) and pot (hemp to make ropes, clothing, etc.) was made illegal a year later? Know who the first head of the DEA was?

To MNI: Follow-up So you don't jump on me about alcohol. Alcohol can be used a tremendous amount without causing addiction. Beside the organized crime we suffer from today is due the prohibition of alcohol earlier this century. I'm just about personal liberty, if you want to do something and it doesn't negatively affect me, so be it, go ahead and do it. My owning a gun has never affected anyone around me, except in a positive way. Believe me it does make you safer when there are no police around. They usually only show up after something bad has happened.
