War on the users won't do jack squat.
Read the thread and data I posted earlier. There are countries with the harshest drug penalties and still people are using and selling.
Even with the threat of beheading and believe it or not crucifixion! Yes, they still crucify people to this day!
It ain't stoppin' someone who is hooked because they're no longer themselves. Once their unconcious mind gets hold of a narcotic it's like glue. It won't let them cut loose.
This problem isn't going to go away until we educate and make sure we don't fall back into that 'oh drugs are cool' shit that Hollywood and the music industry has been promoting for decades.
When's the last time you heard a hit record that said 'drugs are deadly and stupid'? You won't because it doesn't fit the lifestyle of the crumbs who are producing those records.
I know an executive in the recording industry. He was one of the legends. Lost it all to dope. Now he's trying to make a comeback and he's realized what happened to him. There ain't no monkey on your back, there's a monkey up your ass and just like lab rats and lab monkeys the minute they latch onto a narcotic they'll take it til they die.
