I still find the legal precedent and protection drug abusers would get if all drugs would be decriminalized would put a terrible strain on society. You would not be able to avoid Not to mention the slippery slope of such a thing.

Headless bodies hanging from bridges? Entire cities which have no police? Do we have the highest murder rate in the world? It would seem we have a hand on our side of it. The better question is why do you seem to place no blame at all on the Mexican side of the problem? You haven't once mentioned dealing with the supply? You keep saying we fund the problem, who the hell supplies the product? Why is this blame the US?
Lol.

It's been proven that a widespread decriminalization of drugs and the redirection of money and resources towards treatment and education programs is a model that actually decreases overall drug use, teen drug use, violence, crime, HIV cases, etc. The current drug laws we have in place just fail. Time for something new!
