Look at me. I smoke pot.
Pot makes its way into america accross it's boarder with mexico (mine does, anyways. no, I don't deal). Sure, The boarder patrol does a great job. They bust alot of smugglers. But trust me, alot of pot makes its way here and accross the country.
Now unless our government is crooked enough to sell drugs it confiscates (highly unlikely), we are missing alot of pot. Want to know why?
The drug game, like terrorism, is always evolving, always changing. People rise to the top, only to topple, and be busted, or killed. Same with terrorist leaders. Sure, we'll get the heads, but do you seriously think that will deter future acts? If anything, it will make it worse, because once we get the leaders, and they're gone, new ones will rise and want revenge. They'll attack, and we'll attack, so on and so forth, for all eternity, till we're blue in the face, yada yada yada. Get my drift?
To stop the cycle, one must make changes.
on that same note, what makes you think that the nuclear devices that iraq is developing or has developed(don't feed me the bs dude, it's common sense to know that if they don't have them they're working on it very diligently) won't get in to this country just like your pot does? smuggled across the border. and on that same note, what's to say that if or when that nuclear device is smuggled into this country that it's not gonna be detonated in your hometown, my hometown, or anyone else's hometown. this is why iraq must disarm. i understand that in your perfect world no one has nuclear weapons, but over here in reality it's the grim truth and the threat is more real than you know.
