Cafeoutdoors.com: Thank you!

I'm going to make a few comments and never post on this thread again:

I taught DARE for 3 years. I worked undercover for 5 years buying and selling drugs....and getting to know drug users/dealers. I worked Hwy drug interdiction for 3 years. I have supervised an investigative unit, to include 2 officers in a DEA task force, and 4 officers who work undercover, among other officers, for 6 years. In any court in the land I would be considered an "expert witness" to testify on drug crimes.

You ready?

Nobody stays away from drugs because they are illegal. The "law" is never considered when a person decides to try drugs.....it's just not.

Enforcement agencies don't care one rats arse about confiscating drugs or arresting drug users.....they care about how much money they can sieze...because they can use it to fund LOTS of new toys/officers/overtime, etc.

There is no "war on drugs".....there is a WAR FOR ILLICIT CURRENCY!!! Period.

Take the money out of it, the "war" is over.

I firmly believe that the rate of users will not go up, with regard to ANY drug, if they are decriminalized. There is a model for this.....prohibition...it was a dismal failure and bred widespread crime and corruption.

And in case nobody is paying attention.....pharmacies already distribute the overwhelming majority of drugs to addicts......and it's legal.

Carry on.
