New colonies and a war on drugs

I believe you spelled it wrong. It is "Okay" not "Mkay".

Somebody hasn't watched South Park.

... And here I thought my impression of you couldn't get worse. You don't even watch good shows.

Wrong. I have watched it why do you ask?

didn't even see the movie NOT A TRUE FAN!!

Because what I said was a South Park reference and you did not get it at all.

So, Mosh, you said there were a lot of teenagers addicted to hard drugs in your neighbourhood and school, in a country that has a high legal drinking and smoking age and forbids drugs. Now, in my school, there were of course people who did weed, and even grew it themselves. Are they now addicted criminals that run over people on their Saturday nights for fun? Well, no, not really. As far as I know, they still smoke pot with each other in private from time to time. And this is in a country where marijuana is somewhat legal, you can purchase alcoholic beverages when you're 16, and liquor and tobacco when you're 18 (which is also the driving age). Comparing our situations would suggest legalisation of soft drugs and a low legal drinking age are actually better.

The war on drugs has not worked yet, what makes you think its gonna work in the future?

Yes, I'm sure the inhabitants of Africa will be absolutely delighted to see their countries lose the independence their forefathers fought so hard to gain. It was European imperialism that led to the tribal wars we witnessed in Rwanda and Zimbabwe, largely due to borders being divided up along European rather than African terms. And if you think we can eradicate such rivalries when a hundred years of imperialism could not, then you are horrendously mistaken.

As for drugs, your proposals are akinto those employed in the former Soviet Union. How exactly do you propose to work a man whose body and mind has been ravaged through drug use?

Well the plan would be to fight harder and to take more steps to stop it like increasing the consequences if you do use drugs also. I would hope for increasing in law enforcement budgets and to give more funding to continue anti-drug commercials, increase education on it. Also I would start "Marijuana Hunting". I will work as hard as possible to only give marijuana to who medically needs it while also making sure it is practically extinct to everyone else.

You could have made a mistake or a South Park reference. Either way I don't see why you had to post it.

Lighten up dude, it was just a little joke.

I've already addressed increasing the consequences but hey, if you wanna keep pouring tons of money into a war you can't win instead of actually making a decent amount of it from legalizing marijuana then go right ahead.

Of course you don't, conservatives are supposed to be uptight.

Oh look! Idealistic nonsense and general ignorance towards criminal conditioning.

Why is everyone on this crusade against marijuana? I will never use it, but cigarrettes does more damage to you than marijuana does for chrissakes.

Interjecting the factor of "why" into the equation is likely to fry its neural processing unit.

I think marijauna should be legalized due to the fact, the government could make money. I don't think cocaine and heroine should be legalized. Sly made a good point with cigarettes doing more damage to you. Also alchohol is also worse than marijuana

Just about everyone has been saying that about cigs in this thread and no-one suggested that cocaine or heroine be legalized.

I was just stating my opinion on the matter.

I think what you guys fail to understand is I'm proposing an ENTIRELY NEW drug war. Which would be much more powerful than this one and wouldn't have many similarities besides fighting drugs.

I am also happy I found a supporter. And it doesn't matter that he is fascist. Political ideology does not come into this.
