89. One Thing Though (or maybe a couple of things)
1. legalizing it would regulate the purity, strength, etc.
2. it would reduce the crime involved in obtaining drugs
3. it removes the criminal underworld supplying it
4. it takes meth labs out of neighborhoods
5. it could be a way of better regulating it's use and where it is used (home delivery since meth heads don't really like to be around people)

I don't know, the war on drugs isn't working

It's time to try something different don't you think?

And making alcohol illegal worked so well in the 20's, thanks to that we have the organized crime networks we have today.
