Thread: America is a police state

no, i mean they'll use it scare people into not voting for legalization of marijuana.

you are a fucking idiot

Prison=profit (at least the privately owned ones, which are alot.)

I'm not going to get into the argument of whether it's called legalization or decriminalization.

I'd like to see all drug laws repealed, because the government has no business telling you what you can put into your own body, whether it's a plant or a chemical or a bullet.

Call it what you please.

well i think overall the support would probably be 60-70%, but you're right, it would be a bad political move. politicians have no spine

It's hard to say. I DON'T think we would see a crack epidemic, mainly because amongst those people who are likely to smoke crack, the fact that it's illegal probably isn't much of a deterrent. I have a hard time thinking that anyone new would start using now that they could do it without going to jail.

Where I DO think it would have a big impact is on the distribution networks. Decriminalizing crack would cause a massive drop in the premium charged as a street-price, so there'd be less money to be made by traffickers and a drop in the supply provided (since you need huge payouts to justify the risk of being a crack dealer). Could be by a significant amount, too.

since in the corner?
