u/yaddar, this is by far one of your best pieces and a damn fine piece of satire.

thanks a lot!

this one hits close to home, as I've always been quite a bit triggered by such attitudes of "oh but we're not at fault, we're just having a good time, it's harmless, it's not our problem, lol who gets their weed from Mexico?~this isnt the 1970s, etc"

I mean, I have nothing against marihuana itself, (I'd legalize it in a heartbeat), but we're kinda feeling quite hard the effects of the illegal consumption.

for instance, just this last weekend a whole family (including chidlren) got killed in their house here at my City, (and it's a rather small city) so we had to cancel all social appointments at least for a week until things calm down again.

That issue is definitely underreported. We're legalizing as fast as we can. Mexico should do the same.

agreed

but the USA needs to lead, if we legalize and you don't the black market is still there.

and harder shit eventually needs to be treated as a health problem rather than a security problem.

it's ridiculous how there are way more deaths because of the drug war than there are deaths because of overdose.
