I can't say I have. But I have seen some who have consumed beverage alcohol driving a car. What are your thoughts on alcohol Prohibition. How much good did it do?Many illegal drugs seriously impair the person taking them. Ever seen someone who's just taken illegal drugs try to drive a car?
I have no problem with laws against impaired driving being enforced.Would you want your family driving on the same road as an impaired driver?
No. Ever see a twelve year-old girl (or boy) smoking cigarettes?Ever seen a twelve year old girl high on CM?
About the same as I would feel toward a child molester/rapist. These are the type of criminals the police should focus their efforts on, not ordinary, peaceful adults who enjoy the effects of marijuana and harm absolutely no one -- not even themselves.Would you be OK if the girl was your daughter?How would you feel about the sub-human scum who got your little girl addicted to CM?
As far as such serious drugs as opiates and amphetamines are concerned, inasmuch as the law-enforcement approach has proven itself to be absolutely ineffective, and in some ways totally counterproductive, there is no reason why it should not be approached like the medical problem it is and subjected to an intensive public education program, such as has successfully reduced cigarette smoking by more than 75% -- without arresting a single individual or supplier. This in spite of the fact that nicotine is more addictive than heroin, powder or freebase cocaine, and crystal methamphetamine.
