ILLEGAL DRUGS AND CRIME

Regarding criminalizing salvia: It's one more thing to let bad people sell on the black market and get rich.  It's one more thing for pushy "pyramid scheme" drug dealers to hand out free to naive teens to introduce them to, when they likely never would have tried it absent arm-twisting.  Charming.

People always reach the hardest for that which is just out of reach.  We've been fighting the war on drugs since LBJ, and they're more prevalent than ever.  You can even buy them in prisons that are guarded 24 hours a day.

When will we ever learn?
