I'm so sick and tired of hearing how the mayor and the police superintendent are going to stop the violence in Chicago, violence that is brought on by the insidious drug culture that permeates our streets.
Drug dealers are among the lowest common denominators infecting society. They lack empathy, sympathy, decency, respect for life, productivity and a sense of responsibly over their illegal and amoral actions. They are filthy parasites who feed on the innocence of our youth, sucking them into their anti-culture and destroying their lives.
Unfortunately, the market that keeps this human detritus in business will continue to exist, and no war on drugs and no amount of criminal persecution will stifle the quest for the unholy profit as long as the market for the products exist.
And this is where it gets complicated, especially by the policymakers who think they're in the know aboutaddictive drugs.
If we really want to eliminate the drug dealers, legalize and regulate the products they pedal. Make the distribution as safe and comprehensive as the sale of alcohol; then as a society, we can deal with the problems of drug addiction the same way we deal with the problems of alcohol addiction. Legalizing drugs will not make me go out and buy them. However, if I wanted to use, I'd find them no matter how illegal they were.
A drug is a drug and alcohol is no exception. Our leaders, unfortunately, think they can throw hundreds of billions of dollars at a drug war that has accomplished nothing.
