If we can point to a reduction in overall drinking, sure, in fact, I will grant that for arguments sake, but the host of problems prohibition brought along with it make it such that is was a complete failure. Can't imagine anyone slightly familiar with the situation arguing otherwise.

War on drugs has always been a smoke screen for more diabolical shyt
the birth of organized crime which still persists decades later.
corrupting politicians, government officials and making law enforcement even worse than what it was/is.
real talk, prohibition was a cancer that was never fully cured.

It's true.
Drug war hasn't failed.
I would say it has exceeded its expectations.
It was never about curbing or stopping drug use...

So he's the boogeyman now, huh? It's a forgone conclusion that it's over, right? No reason to fight? Over before it started? How did that work in Vietnam, Russia, Cuba and now Afghanistan?

The War on Drugs did exactly what it was supposed to do. I expect this man to be dead within the decade.

They should really stay to the right or left if they going to have any chance of Hope.
You got to be left enough to realize people in abject poverty need help but right enough to know they just need a mother f****** job so they can forge their own destiny
