RE: Why Are Drugs Illegal? Should They Be? (War on the Drug War Part 1)

The reason why crim happens with drugs involved is basically because people are mugging each other off or not getting the money in time. Think it would solve a lot of problems if it was legal. It will be more expensive and reduce crime rate. there's no way it will happen unfortunately!!'

While I agree with your assessment that crime is usually a result of the prohibition of drugs, as opposed to the use of them, I disagree that there's no way it will happen. I think that if enough of us educate ourselves on how legalization and decriminalization has worked in other countries, and on the effects of the drugs themselves, and then we speak up about it on a near constant basis, they can't ignore us forever.
