Re: War on Drugs Cant Be Won, According to Global Leaders

I think the war on drugs is a big wast of money and not even sure why we spend so much money and effort on the war against drugs. With that said I have no problem if the make some lagal but don't then turn arround and ask me to pay for peoples addiction to drugs.

The country is still in turmoil and you now have civil wars between the sunni and shiite. I can see Iraq has turned into a regular Dubai. *rolls eyes*

Man. I'm ready to pack up and roll to Iraq so I can live the good life!! Hear, listen from the good people of Iraq if you don't believe me.



You really are delusional if you believe the Iraqi people are better off.
just out of curiosity have you ever been to iraq? i hate to go of subject but felt i should say something. i was in iraq i was there for almost a year, and i can tell you from my experience in country that they are much better off now than they were before we got there.

you can take a video of some people pissed that we are there but what does that prove? i bet i could walk down my street and find enough people to make a pretty shitty video of people who hate obama, the other half would hate bush. but you know what, i could make that video and do whatever i wanted with it because thats the beauty of a free country. sure it's shitty over in iraq right now, but at least they are in the process of building a free democracy.

i'm not saying i agree or disagree in any way with what all took place but to say they are not better off than they were before walking around in fear i don't understand. yes the country is still in turmoil but they are making progress as a country and are far better off.

i don't follow politics and never have claimed to, i can't run off stats and tell you how much was spent and what effect this war has had on our economic system. but what i can speak on is my experience in country and all the iraqi people i met that thanked me and were very apperciative of the us forces and everything we have done for them.

FD, Im gonna be in your neck of the woods in Portsmouth for a Phish concert in a couple weeks, you should slide on through for the tailgate to check the progress of how your tax money been spent since the implementation of Reagan's era drug policy to stop the availability of drugs in your community. Im sure you wont have a problem scoring and at the sametime you can witness all the viciousness and violence these type of drugs incourage. Im sure you will agree the drugs im refering to should be decrimilized or lagal.

So you can smoke your weed and I still can't snort some coke? That won't cure many problems.

I said I was for making drugs legal. So when is the Phish concert. Its called P town and maybe I'll bring the boat around to check out the concert because the concert place is right on the Elizbeth river and only 20min from our house.
