Spent the Week in Seattle. I was amazed how many street people there were. Most of them looked like they had mental disorders while other were most likely drug addicts. I do not know much about drugs but have a few questions. I saw a couple heating up a whitish powder in aluminum foil then sniffing up the fumes. There were a number of others that were heating up small pipes then sucking in the fumes? Any idea what sort of drugs that they were using?

Could have been anything from one to the other. Probably not a real kid friendly topic.

Heroin and meth. Theyve done real nice things with that town. My sister in law thinks its the greatest place on earth and her and her husband just took their small children there for 3 weeks. I have co workers who still drive up to minneapolis to spend a 3 day weekend. I dont understand the reasoning for either.

More than likely Meth or Heroin. Could possibly have been crack too.

Keep in mind, being able to control what goes into your own body is a separate issue from whether or not putting said substances in your body is a good idea.

Sounds like Meth. Probably the worst drug (not that there are good ones) that a person could get involved with. Once you start down that road, few ever recover. Psychosis is usually a side effect not to mention skin lesions, rotting teeth, paranoia, and violent tendencies.

My opinion is anybody who wants take heroin or meth or crack is taking it. Those addicts on the west coast are there because they dont want to deal with L.E. If they were in Muskogee Oklahoma (sorry Merle its the truth) they would still be dope fiends.

NOTHING GOOD has come from the "war on drugs". They are available even in Mayberry now. The war on drugs is THE excuse for taking away your rights and freedoms and NOTHING to show for it.

Not a good argument. If someone wants to sit in a corner and smoke meth or do whatever drug, then I say fine. Do what you want and no one should bother you. Kill yourself with it if that's what you want. However, that's not what happens. It is the root cause of societal decay. These people usually contribute nothing to society, they only take. Handouts from the government, violent crime, a burden on the health care system, you name it. The fact is that taxpayers have to pony up all of the resources so these fools can destroy themselves. That's why it should be illegal and why stiff punishments should be doled out for it's sale and use.

So then how do you propose to stop it? Could start executing people like they do in the Philippines. Short of that the only result is a loss of government recognition of your rights.

50 years ago a 10 year sentence for one marijuana cigarette on a first offense was pretty common punishment. People still smoked it though. Even in Muskogee.

So, if the government can force you *not to* put something in your own body......can they force you *to* put something in your body?

I don't have an answer of how to stop it other than bigger prisons. I do know that legalization is not the answer.
