Somehow I don’t think Kim Jong Il gives a rats ass what she has to say. Maybe BO can make another video, something along the lines of… Dear Kim, you naughty boy…
Or maybe Obama can just do something similar to what he did with Gordon Brown...get KJI a Netflix subscription. Surely that'll put a stop to everything.
Hillary is actually right about the demand for drugs in this country, surprisingly. If there were no demand from all the drug-addled losers we have within our borders, the drug lords wouldn't be making insane profits. But everyone who claims personal drug use is a victimless crime needs to only look down south of the border to see some of the side effects of the business. And it's another example, by the way, of how alcohol isn't "more dangerous than most drugs" as some on here like to claim. I guess the media is just sitting on a bunch of stories about how Budweiser and Coors executives chop each others heads off to gain a better control of the market share.
But wait a second, though. All I've heard from the Left is the war on drugs is doomed to fail...so what is Obama going to do differently here?

You sincerely believe drug cartels would compete with a regulated legal drug market? How many individuals profit off bootlegging alcohol now of days? I'm sure there will be quite a few potheads who decide to grow their bud opposed to buying it in the coffeeshop/store, but it ends there.
You'd be left with two choices when buying your other drugs.
1. Go to a shady area and illegally purchase a mystery bag of cocaine/heroin/meth, having no idea what's cut/laced with, how pure it is, or if it's even the real stuff.
2. Safely and legally purchase your drugs, knowing exactly what's in them and how strong they are.
Tough call. :think2:
Intoxicant use and presumably abused has been around since the Sumerians...so it's been 7000 years...I don't think it's going away...
Best to educate your children and hope that they've learned to make the right choices in life...Parents have to be the strongest influence...
She is right to an extent in blaming the United States in that the United States is the biggest cheerleader for the drug war worldwide. If the US were to legalize drugs, most of the world would follow. Legal drugs = no more black market = no more violent drug cartels, gangs. Illegal drugs are also the #1 corrupter of governments.
by the way, this is what the us troops are using
and this is what the cartels use
out gunned, out manned, out monied.
the guy who runs one of these cartels is worth over a billion, 701st richest man in the world. we don't have the money to get sufficient weapons, don't have enough troops, and don't have enough money, and legalizing it won't do anything. no win situation.

hno:You gotta be kidding me? The cartels are the ones shipping in the dirt cheap commerical mexican brick weed. The great strains are from homegrowers and medicinal caregivers. Go to amsterdam and it's all exotic strains which make the dank here look tame. Very few people would be going to a shady area to illegally buy a bag of poopy weed when they can get it legally.
For a long time I’ve thought that was a brilliant idea and not just illegal’s but all criminals. With the overcrowding and the fact that half of them shouldn’t be there in the first place you could offer them 5 years in combat and if they survive they free with all GI benefits. If they don’t survive at least they are not a burden to the tax payers any longer.

I thought we we're working to take the guns OUT of criminals hands...
Think of the time and money that would be saved if all drugs were legalized and as a side benefit the government could tax the drugs thus giving them even more money to waste on something else. Think of the possibilities.
Don't like it...it's one of the last purely capitalistic enterprises out there...the Government would just fuck it up...

Spoken like someone who has never served, and never intends to. No way you'd say such utterly stupid tripe if you had any vested interest outside extolling your ideas in a forum.
You'd really like to have our volunteer enlisted servicemen serving side by side with illegals and criminals? Sounds like an amazing environment for those currently in harms way.
