The War on Drugs is immoral

There was no Opium epidemic until after we took over Afghanistan and now Opium is everywhere. What is Afghanistan’s #1 export? 🤔 Opium. The people who are asking the government to protect them from many drugs are going to the source of the problem for a solution but they ARE the problem. This is exactly what they want. The CIA is the largest drug dealer in the world.

Get rid of the war on drugs PERIOD. The war on drugs is just the CIA trying to stamp out their competition.

I think you've touched on a very powerful point about this "opioid crisis" certainly there is more to flesh out here so I hope you'll follow up with more details as you have the opportunity.

There are only two ways to handle the drug problems. First, legalize it, and let those prone to addiction slowly murder themselves, or second, as a policy, kill anyone you find with any drugs of any kind. Nothing less will work. Both destroy the profit from drugs, which in turn destroys the traffic in drugs. The second method, while cold blooded, worked for China when they faced a much worse opium problem, provided by the British ( which is probably where the CIA learned it from).

I believe that we should all be free to put whatever we want into our own bodies. Even if it’s bad for us. If you’re not free to make a bad decision, are you even free? The war on drugs does nothing good unless you’re the state trying to expand your power and influence and other crimes. It does, however, incarcerate non violent offenders which in turn takes up space for violent offenders AND uses tax payer money (which btw taxation is theft!).

It also allows the hardened felons ample time and access, to train these people to be more dangerous.
