Of course, there are always excuses to not do right about drugs.

I recommend summary execution of murderers, rapists, and human traffickers, after proven guilty in the court of justice, no appeals.

That should clear up space for our drug offenders.

Also, our prison system is too lenient. We operate under the false premise of rehabilitating offenders.
Criminals don't fear doing time. Lets fix this by eliminating all their commodities and making our prison system a more secure copy of middle eastern prisons, and we would end the "war on drugs" in no time.

Well, now that we've heard from the house of Saud, do we have any sane considerations?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Is anyone seriously talking about legalizing coke?

Why not?

I don't particularly like the idea, but clearly prohibition isn't working, at least the way we're going about it now.  Plus, there's a part of me that feels that if tobacco is legal, there isn't any recreational drug that should be illegal.

Cause we have enough trouble with drunk drivers?

Well, bringing up DUI's would tend to support Seige's contention that we aren't winning the war on drugs because we aren't being hard enough on offenders. 

You're too young to remember this, but widespread public concern about drunk driving and law enforcement taking it seriously are things that really only go back about 35 years or so.  Back in the early to mid 70s and before, it wasn't uncommon for a cop to just send you on your way with a warning if he caught you driving drunk, or for people to just get a small fine (and no points) when they got caught.  Even as late as 1980, one of my friends got caught driving drunk, and he went to court and pleaded it down to failure to control.   They won't let you do that now--you get caught, and you're going to pay a stiff fine, and have your license suspended for a year at least.  A second offense, and you lose your license for I think it's 10 years.  And you know what?  Those stiff penalties have significantly cut down on drunk driving.

Looking at it as a "war" is the wrong way to view things.  We don't have a "war" on burglary or murder or garbon, but we have laws to restrict these things and while we still have all these terrible things, they are kept in check.

"The Village" extends uptown or am I just imagining that I go uptown? If the latter, I have a dreadful imagination what with my vision of Times Square and Herald Square. :(

Hey Razputin, leave Garbon alone.
He is, unlike you, a valuable member of this community.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
