This may surprise some of you.
It is nothing like the war on terror. Terrorists want to kill you. I say kill them first. Over there, if possible.
The war on drugs, however, fights a victimless crime. The way I see it, no victim = no crime. I don't buy the argument that the user becomes the victim, that's like saying we can legislate stupidity and keep people from hurting themselves.
For a start, marijuana needs to be legalized. That will give a cash crop back to the unemployed tobacco farmers.
