We still need to learn the lessons of 1930s prohibition. If we can't keep drugs out of federal prisons, there is no hope to keep them off the streets. The war on drugs is over.
Not True, unless you intend to include ALL drugs...
We can legalize weed all day long. But as long as heroin and cocaine exists, (And they will Never be legallized) , there will be Cartels.
Weed is not necessarily a gateway drug, but it can get boring for some folks..(Same with Alchohol ).. We have legalized Alchohol, and the Cartels still exist. When we have Weed legalized, Cartels will still exist.
The only way to stop Cartel activity is to stop 'paying' into it...People pay into it when they purchase...even the tiniest joint or gram...
Teach your kids to abstain from these drugs... an the problem will go away.
FYI Grant, I'll never get bored with "Drankin alkyhol"
