I think we should fight the system completely. being arrested for a bogus substance should not be a crime. alcohol will hurt you more in the long run and it is f****** legal!

The reason that it is not called "The War on Drug Users" is because drug users are not put in prison. According the the U.S. Supreme Court, drug addiction is a medical condition not a crime. Therefore, if one commits a drug-related crime, where a person can certainly be sentenced to jail or prison, that is legal. Nice Try.
