Question for Ripsnort
« on: October 07, 2003, 04:38:16 AM »
In the US, heroin is defined as a "Class A" drug. Supply, and even possession of this drug ie illegal - ie it is banned, even though fewer people die from heroin abuse than from gunshot wounds!

But the heroin trade in America is worth billions of dollars. So why ban it when banning it clearly doesn't work?

easy answer beetle ---------money --the criminals make sure it stays illegal-----the authorities have jobs and make money-by both stealing money from us (called taxes) and by the criminals themselves who bribe a great deal of said authorities.....

And by stupid people who think they know better than the person doing them what they should do....

Hope that helps answer your question.

Why have a speed limit when in fact speed kills tens of thousands of Americans every year? More than heroin, more than guns?

Damn your annoying when you post about a goofy game. But I actually feel sorry for you when you try to post about relevant issues.

 I can't call you a tard, it isn't fitting. You just seem attention starved and actually unintelligent.

I can't even follow up Creamo's act.  Too funny!

Incidently, Beet1e, Heroine is usually a victimless crime except for those who steal to supply their habits.

Yes, and you can't answer the question either.

Creamo - "Why have a speed limit when in fact speed kills tens of thousands of Americans every year?" At least you stayed on topic. You were talking about amphetamine sulphate, right? :lol
