[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole purpose of Initiative 81 seems to be to give police and the prosecutor's office a pass on doing their jobs which is to enforce the law.  Instead of addressing the drug problem or reforming the system, DC just wants the voters to let them off the hook.  Public drug use is getting worse in the city - why is the proposed solution to decriminalize drugs even more??

For many of us who live in the city with young kids, it's becoming untenable.  And for those of you with babies and toddlers who are unconcerned about the impact of these decriminalization laws, come talk to me once your kids are old enough to see what's happening and ask questions.  If you are truly committed to raising your kids in the city long term, you should be troubled by these initiatives.  [/quote]

Is 11 old enough for you?  And no plans to move.  We have open and honest talks about drugs. I've never taken anything more than alcohol, but I'm familiar enough with what the various did are around here.

I'm not trying to shelter my kids from drugs.  They will make their own decisions.  I'm just going to make sure they understand. And if they need help they'll call me.[/quote]
