“Most of this can be greatly reduced by legalizing and leting people grow their own.”
Possibly...California is considering it. Mexico has recently legalized personal possession of ALL drugs...everyone coming over will have them now. But legalization of drugs won’t help the human smuggling, prostitution, auto theft, ID fraud, welfare abuse,buying off our politicians, more democrat voters, etc.
I didn’t say it would. Just reduce the money avalable to drug gangs for supplying what the government has made illegal.
“f ALL drugs...everyone coming over will have them now.”
Why, they are still illegal here. What will our people do? Arrest for drug possession?
. Exactly right, well said. Most folks don't think beyond the primary issue of growing pot. I was born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley, left long ago, don't visit anymore but the point about violent gangs moving into small towns also holds true. I don't think we can "run away", we must face the issue and take action.
