Re: Summarization of Prohibition Points/ Counter-Points [Re: DieSpectra]

I think what happened during the prohibition of alcohol in the early 20th century should be all the experience we would need to see that prohibition does not work. The idea of being able to ban a substance outright, in the face of clear demand for it by the public is just absurd. If you look at all the unanticipated effects that prohibition had on America (e.g. the surge in bootlegging, organized crime, the huge black market in general) you can draw a clear parallel to what is happening with drug enforcement in America today.


--------------------
The story goes, or the way that I was told
There was a king that always felt too high and then he fell too low
And so he called all the wise men to the hall
And begged them for a gift to end the rises and the falls
But here’s the thing, they came back with a ring
It was simple and was plainly unbefitting of a king
Engraved in black, it had no front or back
But there were words around the band that said
Just know: This Too Shall Pass
