Look at the american Prision system. It's FILLED to the brim with african-american drug offenders. While blacks only make up 12 percent of the American population, over 43 percent of them are incarcerated in the American prison system, 22 percent of them on minor drug charges. Hell, thats over10 percent of the male, african american community! The prision population has ben growing CONSIDERABLY since the "War on Drugs" began. The number of incarcerated drug offenders has increased twelvefold since 1980! Do you have any idea how much money it costs to incarcerate a man? As for my personal beliefs on marijuana in particular: I belive that, in the comfort of their own homes, Adults should be allowed to smoke. Children should be HONESTLY educated on the effects of marijuana, and be presented with alternativs to drug use, should they choose to not use the right to use that right. I belive that marijuana and alcohol go hand in hand, and that if somebody wants to toke in their living room among friends, TBA officers shouldn't kick down their door.
L33t-fu Im not gonna exscuse my grammar :p
The only reason I come off so extremly liberal is that most people I discuss these things with have no clue. I just weigh that direction to get people to see the differences before judging.
