Whomever wrote the script for "Escape from New York" had a keen insight. I think it would just be better to institute a harsh justice for drug dealers, death on conviction within a week of sentencing. Incarcerate the users long enough to detoxify them, then release them on lifelong probation with monthly testing. If they ever test positive again for the drugs, give them 5 years, and weekly testing after release. Next time they test positive, death penalty. I may be wrong, but at least it would work. Either that, or legalize the usage of drugs, kill the dealers, and let those affected by the drugs wither away and die in slums like those in Rio.

How about "Escape From Rio"? They wall off the ghetto and send the criminals there. I smell a blockbuster.

I concur- but I would extend it to alchohol producers and consumers as well- 40% of all fatal car accidents, or about 16,000 deaths every year, or more people than are murdered (by both drug and non drug using people)are alchohol related.

Selfish people putting their own enjoyment about the well-being of their neighbors must be STOPPED.

Ya make booze, we kill ya. Ya drink it, we follow the plan you listed above.

Your kidding right?
