    worse things have happened in the world and the Almighty United States of America has sat on its hands.

    We will watch this from the sidelines as we always do.

    Thank goodness companies are pulling their business.... in times like this, everyone should bring their business home.

    good morning g , if we could help Mexico with a few companies doing manufacturing in Mexico that would be great, I just get a little pissed off at their government when I read about their involvement with the drug cartels and even then this money does not make down to the citizens that need it most, when I worked on the Titanic movie in rosarito a local I met who became a good friend told me that the local police would run keys of crystal past the federalies and into TJ where it would make it's way in to san diego,when I asked him how he knew this he told me his uncle is a SGT in mexican ploice..
    then when I would go past the federalies at night to go back to my hotel they would force me out of my truck at gun point and take the hats and t-shirts(the company sent) that i was giving to local workers who would help us with the cranes from time to time (they loved em), I'll tell there's not much scarier that a corrupt federalie pointing a 30. cal in your face screaming COCA COCA...

    and then there's the issue with the people that come over here illegally and go in t.v and tell who ever will listen that they are taking over calif. while they're waving their mexican flags,(just what we need,calif to look just like T.J) the same people that cost our legal american citizens over a billion dollars a year total in tax dollars, then these dumb ass's in Washington try and cut spending by laying off police,firemen,cut school budgets and so on, I have grown up in San Diego and watched it turn in to a gang banging drug war shit hole in some areas (chula vista,national city,logan hights etc,) with graffiti from these mexican gang bangers ruining
    places and yes effecting the vale of certain neighborhoods, so yes I don't want just anybody that sneaks across the borders to get legal citizenship,the process needs to be selective in my opinion,if any person has even a smear for drugs or any gang affiliation or crime in general we need to send them back to what ever country they come from.
    Sorry if I sound like a racist g, I'm really not (you can look at my family and see that :D ) I'm just fed up with some of the crap that comes along with some of the illegals that sneak into this country.

    why?







    if you legalize these drugs, you take the power away from the cartels, no need for violence.

    if you legalize all the drugs that come across our borders it would create an epidemic of drug addiction and deaths...is that violent enough ?,not a good idea.

    i doubt that this will be the case with marijuana.
    i know a lot of stoners and none of them are violent people when stoned. unless you take away their funions or their x-box controller...

    besides, how would he cartels have any sort of power anymore if the government was the one selling the drugs?

    An interesting experience/perspective detailed in your post- I'll respond later...... But really - all of this really has nothing to do with the real solutions that the bill had to offer. The bill would have promoted good behavior and also would have benefited the Country - Your a military guy, the bill would have helped build that military! It all seems like a negative experience, with a lot of misunderstood information..... Maybe you should lay off the gang land shows and lay off of Fox a little while.
    thanks for following up with the post...

    alcohol or tobacco account for more deaths than ALL illegal drugs combined.

    That doesn't make it ok commy, adding to the legal pool of things that kill will not make it better in my opinion.
    Also I think the reason alcohol and tabbaco kill more is because they're at every 7-11 and liquor store in the world so could you imagine heroin and math being as available as that ?

    legalizing drugs does not lead to an increase in use, in fact the opposite may be true.

    pot use is in the US is double what it is in Amsterdam.

    hard to say here in the states, I can't argue that with you,all I can say is hopefully we will not find out.
