Why Do You Support the Drug War?
After asking many questions on this site, many people respond with: Drugs are illegal, therefore they are bad. If they are bad, people who do them are bad. Hence, lets put drug users in jail with the rest of the bad people.
If you oppose drug use simply because it is “illegal” then you support slavery. After all, failing to return a runaway slave in early America was illegal. If you were alive during alcohol prohibition, would you stop drinking because it’s illegal?
Anyone who says that drugs are bad and has no justification or facts to back it up, and just exclaims that they are illegal should go back to school. Learn to THINK.
Or people will say that drugs are bad for you, so they should be illegal. So to these people, stop watching TV, driving cars, drinking booze, and eating any food other than rice and beans. Or you are a hypocrite.
Or you might say they’re addictive, and drug laws stop addiction. Wrong. Try imposing your morality on Muslims, they’ll kill you.
So why do you people continue to clamor for prohibiting the most basic of freedoms – Cognitive Liberty – just because you have never done drugs. Whether because they are illegal, addictive, unhealthy or whatever, what gives you the right to control my consciousness.
Believe it or not, most drug users lead normal, productive lives as pillars of their communities or normal people. You cannot tell an opiate user or stoner from another person unless they let the drug control them.
Is it to “save the children”? Try taxing and regulating, like alcohol. How many kids can go into a store and buy a fifth of vodka? Not many. Drug dealers don’t ID.
So save the children, protect our liberties, and enrich our lives. Put an end to this silly crusade, and STOP PUSHING YOUR MORALITY ON EVERYONE ELSE!!!!!
David, crack babies are a proven myth. They don’t exist. If you used your brain and Google (two fantastic tools) you would know this.
CRACK BABIES ARE A MYTH!!!
