Executing drug users would be insane, and it wouldn’t end the war on drugs. In all likeliness the people targeted would be poor users of drugs like opiates and meth rather than middle-class white kids snorting cocaine and MDMA. It would just exacerbate the problems of criminalising drugs.
You should lighten up a bit. What is this world coming to when you can’t enjoy watching the left have their weekly aneurysm and go full tilt anti-Trump rant.I see you’re a fan of his ego driven and childish pranks. Obviously, you have no interest in having a government of the people, for the people and by the people. Enjoy your cynicism of all things American.
I don’t see this as being applied to the rank-and-file user or streetcorner seller; I see this as being using against those in the upper ranks of the illegal drug food chain, with the possible inclusion of a streetcorner purveyor who sells someone what turns out to be a lethal dose.
Well even mafia dons don’t get the death penalty for being at the head of their food chain; why is drug dealing any worse? I think the death penalty should be reserved for crimes such as directly murdering someone.
A truly bizarre characterization. If you want to criticize Trump for damaging any institution that doesn’t agree with him, be specific. What institution, and what, exactly, did he do to cause what harm?
I don’t say that it is; I am just guessing that the head honchos will be the real targets of any new laws.
But have you known people who got their brains fried by drugs? It’s life-destroying.
Certainly not in every case or for every drug, no?
Hard to imagine you and me agreeing on anything, but I could see this, and for a number of physicians as well.
I suppose everyone is free to have their own opinion no matter how ridiculous it is!I am completely lightened up on this topic. People on the Right have made an industry (Fox News, Talk Radio,etc.) out of hating liberals, the Clintons, progressives, etc. since George H. W. lost his re-election bid. They are the crazies who have accused the Clintons of being murderers and Obama being from Kenya. It’s that same craziness that powered Trump to the Oval Office and have kept his fellow Republicans quiet as he smears every American institution that does not agree with him. But we who see this for the stupidity that it is do have a life. So we don’t need to get one like our counterparts on the other side. It’s just that cleaning up the Nirsery in 2 years is going to be a lot of work!
Should beer company execs get the death penalty.tomarin:

I’m against the death penalty because JPII was. But objectively, I could see some utility in it, particularly to the extent it was carried on clandestinely in foreign countries like the War on Terror is.
The ones that brew and market ‘lite’ beer, yes.
He plays the media to shift their focus where he wants it. It was trade a few weeks ago and today it’s drugs.
Yeah it seems he plays on their hatred of him thereby falling right in line!Imdaman:

Yet the topic of discussion is where he wants it to be, same as during the campaign.
Pretty typical. No details. Just assertions.
