I generally agree with you Curt, but although pot seems to mellow most people, what about the assassins? They allegedly would get stoned on hashish before committing their murders. Also, Michael Brown of Ferguson infamy was stoned when he attacked the convenience store owner and then tried to grab the cop's sidearm.
Having seen this "war" from the inside (of law enforcement) I know that there is no doubt that it was a terrible loss and a waste of lives and resources.

Why is marijuana illegal and alcohol legal? Makes zero sense. Nobody gets high and gets into fights, or robs somebody or beats their wife. For years I've said we needed an instant test for THC so people could be checked for driving while high but considering recent doubts about the accuracy of breathalyzer testing I'm not so sure it would matter. Also consider the number of people in the slammer for minor drug violations that will have difficulty with employment their entire lives because they've got a felony conviction... -Curt From: G Mann <g2ma...@gmail.com> To: Curt Raymond <curtlud...@yahoo.com>; Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Sent: Sunday, June 5, 2016 4:03 PM Subject: Re: [MBZ] Mexicans -- story The "War on Drugs" started under LBJ.. if I recall correctly.. sooooooo.. some 40+ years into that "War" and some un-counted billions of tax payer dollars..

But it would not be necessary if we stopped the drug production and illegal entry into the US. From my business process days, I see it as Root Cause Analysis. The root cause is the production and distribution of the drugs. Without the availability of the drugs, there would be no users. Maybe that seems too simple, but that's my view and as always, you are welcome to yours. After all, the users who can't quit could still go to Colorado and get a "Rocky Mountain High" :-)) Best Wishes, Roger Roger Hale Dinnerware Classics, Inc.
