so..back to the conversation about subtance abuse..can we at least agree that the war on drugs isnt working,if anything it actually got worse with better, more available drugs everywhere..ie supply and demand ..your public demands them, the dealers supply.
the absolute most ridiculous thing EVER is your draconian mandatory sentence laws..
here is an actual fact,
"the average sentence for a 1st time,non-violent drug offender convicted under federal mandatory sentencing laws is LONGER than the average sentence for RAPE,CHILD MOLESTATION, BANK ROBBERY AND MANSLAUGHTER."
I'm not even from your country or reside there and that pisses me off.stoner, drinker, weight lifter, mormon or any other group..surely you must agree this is ridiculous?
what ever happened to punishment fitting the crime ??
