ILLEGAL DRUGS AND CRIME
Regarding criminalizing salvia: It's one more thing to let bad people
sell on the black market and get rich. It's one more thing for pushy
"pyramid scheme" drug dealers to hand out free to naive teens to
introduce them to, when they likely never would have tried it absent
arm-twisting. Charming.
People always reach the hardest for that which is just out of reach.
We've been fighting the war on drugs since LBJ, and they're more
prevalent than ever. You can even buy them in prisons that are guarded
24 hours a day.
When will we ever learn?
