Hey kooper, when did 50+% of the country decide to make drugs illegal? You need to seriously look past your statist indoctrination and to the FACTS. The US government started making propaganda demonizing drug use PRIOR to any majority of citizens wanting to make drugs illegal. Only after being BOMBARDED with LIES and PROPAGANDA through the mainstream media, from politicians, etc, did people become AFRAID of drugs and drug users. That is the fucking honest truth! An elite group of RULERS created the drug war, it had NOTHING TO DO with the average citizen except they were used as fucking scared puppets. So fuck off with your talk about democracy and how THE PEOPLE have power, because if THE PEOPLE had power then THE PEOPLE would have made drugs illegal not a select group of government and corporate ELITISTS. They didn't make any change to the constitution even ! SO FUCK THE NOTION that they can AT A WHIM brainwash EVERYONE and then we are free because after DECADES when their PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATIONS start to wear off we can slowly start to undo the DAMAGE TO US THAT THEY HAVE CAUSED. That is not fucking freedom, that is not democracy that is motherfucking PSYOP controlled totalitarianism. SO please let me know when you HEAL YOUR BROKEN MIND from the CONDITIONING THAT HAS BEEN INGRAINED INTO IT and see the fucking TRUTH OF THE MATTER. The truth that WE THE PEOPLE had no fucking say in the war on drugs, we were given nothing but lies and propaganda from the VERY FUCKING BEGINNING.
