    I drink beer and whiskey and I've never wanted to try anything else. Copenhagen. But I did that before I knew about beer.

    It's called willpower. Too many people make too many poor excuses about gateway drugs. You're either gonna do it or you're not. I say don't drink and drive. Don't smoke and drive. Don't inject or pop pills and drive. Stay home and break sh*t at your house if you're gonna get all hopped up on coke.

    Edit for Clarification: "You" is not meant for anyone in particular. I realize I quoted red, but I meant "you" as... you know what I mean.

    Nevertheless, most narcotics addicts graduated from liquor, not pot smoking.

    Omniscience.

    I vote for pragmatists. Once the extremists are gone, then we can get practical.

    I can see that. But it's still just an excuse.

    But I don't agree with how that situation that the OP posted, was handled. That's the kind of stuff that gives law enforcement officials bad names. Huge black eye, IMO.

    Well, it is the making of molehills into mountains that results in this crap, don't you think?.

    We need to take a step back and look at who is really benefitting from this drug war. Because it's definitely not the American people.

    You talking about the law enforcement side or the drug abuser side?

    I don't see any reason to be busting in homes, honestly.
