[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not for decriminalizing drugs but I think addiction should be dealt with medical intervention. Criminal intervention isn’t working. America spends like $100 billion on illegal drugs; clearly “Just Say No” and police aren’t making a dent. We waste a lot of time and money on people who choose to destroy their lives with drugs. What’s your solution?[/quote]
Did you even listen to the podcast or read the article?[/quote]

I did read the article. As I stated, I don’t think drugs should be decriminalized. The War on Drugs didn’t work nor did decriminalization. I think conservatives are just for putting people into jail so you don’t have to see them (homeless drug addicts). But we have too many criminals in jail and no one wants to be a corrections officer.

Currently, nothing is working! So what’s the controversy in my posts?![/quote]

So if "nothing is working," why are you upset about going back to the status quo?[/quote]

Np. Because it. . . Wait for it . . . Didn’t work either. Other than to make you feel good about punishing ppl with addiction and putting them away in an inhumane environment where you don’t have to see them. [/quote]

The alternative to the status quo, decriminalization, did not work. So what else do you expect?[/quote]
