Drugs are weird, By drugs I am speaking of the manufactured stuff that has allways been around.
Chocolate, an off shoot from the bean used to make Coke. Thousands of years old.
We eat poppy seed bagels without a thought that poppies are used to make Opium. Note the Opium wars of the far east in years gone by.
The Spice wars long ago when people would die to ingest a spice from Indonesia.
Even Salt, was paid as wage to workers at one time.
So now at this time what do we do to curb humanity from their drug of choice. It is said the most addicted to humans and animals are salt and sugar.
Nuts, these poisons are sold to the public to get high and take over their lives and mandate their death.
At this time the manufactured drugs have taken over as they are very cheap, and target the youth that is too young to buy booze or cannot afford pot.
Benefits to these killers are no one can tell by smell if they have ingested the drug, cost is about one pack of cigarettes, the manufacture of the drug takes just hours and anyone can do it.
Surprising the number of old folks that can just get by on SS that fear planting pot in the back yard will actually make this devils brew in out back outhouses.
Anyone remember the Prohibition era when outhouse stills in the back woods outfitted their grandkids cars to carry tanks of the moonshine, stuff that caused people to go blind or crazy down the mountain roads with the cops in close persuit.
A few of the drivers became later famous in the world of car racing and later bragged about it after they retired.
How to stop a desire in mankind to quit drugs, A man and woman are now in jail as by their faith they allowed their child to die without medical care. As the child was dieing and being prayed over, both parent --father with abscessed tooth received medical care, Mother went for a Pap smear.

Big question on hard drugs here, if one raises a child in a family that is drug free, is it their peers that take them into the world of darkness????
If I live on a farm and catch my kids out back smoking corn stalks at age 5-----Grandfather story of his youth--- how do I know my kids will not be smoking wild growing weed at that time???
Make Pot leagel and tax the hell out of it, Sell it only at state liquor stores and put a limit on the amount to be bought.
If Pot is a gate way drug, then so is Beer. So are pain medications that are no longer needed, so is aspirin and anything that makes one feel good.
So is sex but one does not have sex a few times and become addicted to it, except---May as well admitted it I'M addicted to Love.
