Bennett DRUG WAR IS FUTILE The modern drug war is futile. People will do as they see fit. They will follow Heinlein's 11th Commandment: Don't get caught. Also of note, one of Christ's miracles was turning water to wine at the request of his mother. If anything, he preached against extreme measures in either direction.
