Or we can admit that the "War on Drugs" is a failed policy, just like prohibition. "Users will find a way"... Once we admit that, we can look for something new to try that truly helps abusers and keeps the $$ from the hands of our enemies and cartels.gigag04 wrote:Not sure how that's relevant, and the comment has the feel of a cheap shot. Even a cursory glance at the "med weed" field will show that it is easily gamed by potheads to buy dope. Fix the system so those that have a real need can get treatment they need, legitimize the distribution to mainstream medical pharmacies, and fire all the drug dealing doctors that write out scripts for bogus usage to potheads, and I might be swayed.Oldgringo wrote:There are those wo would say the DEA is a sham just as is the BATF...gigag04 wrote:Med weed is a sham...
Is it really necessary that I fill out a form to buy OTC allergy meds because Sudafed can be used to make Meth? Is this really where we want to go with drug policy? Foolishness. If I can make meth in my bathroom, just like I can make beer in my laundry room, current drug policy will never be able to get ahead of that fact.
Time to admit the plan we have CANNOT work no matter how hard we tweak (pun intended) it and try a new direction.
