Drugs, Sex, and Rock and Roll (ok maybe no sex or rock and roll but plenty of drugs)

Why in the hell do people do drugs? It’s so fucking stupid. I just got done watching a flick about drugs and it was so horrible. These kids were shooting heroin all over the place. A person must think very little of themselves to consider using drugs. The weirdest thing to me is when people who are addicted to drugs tell others not to start but people start anyway. Take cigarettes for example, why would you even start? I haven’t met anyone who smokes who promotes it. They are all like “Don’t start it’s too hard to quit”. Yet kids everywhere are smoking as young as 12 or 13 years old. And I hate when people try to blame it on that peer pressure bullshit. I have been around plenty of people who smoke weed, drink alcohol, and smoke cigarettes but they have never pressured me into anything. I think that peer pressure comes from within. Weak minded individuals feel the need to “fit in” with a certain crowd so they follow the leader. I just don’t understand what attracts people to something that they know will hurt them down the road.

I think the war in Iraq should be diverted. I feel that it would be better for our country if we used all our resources and invaded places like Columbia, Mexico, Argentina, and other countries that are notorious for drug producing/trafficking. We are fighting a so called “War on Terror” but I am in a country that had nothing to do with terrorism. Besides all of this started because of 911 but I believe only 3000 people roughly died in that attack. I don’t have the statistics in front of me but I know for a fact that drug related deaths are at least 10 times that amount and this is a conservative figure. If we used all the money and manpower to combat this war on drugs, drugs would not exist in the streets and if they did the price would be so high that no one could afford to but them. How about launching a SCUD missile into some drug lords’ mansion like we did to Saddam’s palaces, which would sure dampen the drug business. We teach kids in school not to do drugs but it’s clear they aren’t listening, and even if they are the drugs in the streets are too tempting for some to avoid. I think we need to stop the drugs coming into the country and this would eliminate and temptation that exists.

Launching intercontinental ballistic missiles into South America may seem extreme but the problem we have is also extreme. Our country is supposed to be the “best country in the world” yet we have some of the highest crime rates and definitely by far the highest drug usage. I read somewhere that 80 percent of the drugs produced are consumed in the US. That is incredible since we don’t even have the highest population. Maybe when they say America is the best, they mean that America is the best at getting high. People in the states need to get off their high horse and start looking at themselves instead of blaming problems on other people. It’s not Mexico’s fault that they use their borders to get so much dope in the United States. It’s all about supply and demand. If we stop demanding they will stop supplying.

Hey I am tired of writing about this subject because it gets on my nerves. But if you agree or disagree then leave a comment. Later.
