Three U.S. citizens killed in Mexico attacks

20. As you said, MJ isn't the big problem.

But legalizing it is not going to stop the use of meth, cocaine, bath salts, heroin, or anything else. There was a program a while back on Current TV about the use of oxycontin. The addicts to oxy were going to heroin cause it was a better high and cheaper. How did they pay for their habits? Most of them stole from family. What happens when the family throws you out? You gotta steal from someone else.

So, what do you do then? We are back to square one, with the exception we don't treat MJ users like criminals.

As far as Fast and Furious, I have to disagree with your analysis. Where was the tracking mechanism for the guns that went to the cartels? Why weren't the Mexican Authorities notified of the program? ATF supervisors watched on CCTV guns being sold to suspicious individuals and let the weapons walk? The whole deal does not pass the smell test. A simple question: What did the President and the AG know and when did they know it. The Presidents national security advisor was recieving information on the program and he didn't brief the boss? Really?

How about the story of the State Department ok'ing the sale of millions of dollars in military weapons to the Mexican government, of which how many of the weapons wound up in the hands of the cartels due to corruption in the system?

I remember when the news on F&F broke the story line said it was all the fault of the US firearms dealers and that our gun laws needed to be tightened. The when the particulars came out, the reporting all but dried up except for Sheryl Attkinson of CBS and FOX News. There's that damned coincidence thing again!
