Legallize Crystal Meth?

OUr local Pot Activist is at it again........
Got this from the Bugel. good ole cut and paste.
Guess he needs more controversey

Editor, The Bugel:
An Open Letter to B.C. Solicitor General John Les, and to city
councillor John Smith.
Making the ingredients illegal won't make crystal meth go away,
only more toxic and violent. There are good reasons to legalize, then
regulate, and then even tax crystal meth. Foolishly, our present government
policy of drug prohibition is injecting price increases and
violence into the black market, and abdicating the right to decide:
1) who is going to supply the drugs to the community
2) what kind of drugs are going to be supplied
3) how much the drugs are going to cost
4) how potent and toxic those drugs are going to be
5) how they are going to be produced
6) what age levels they are going to be sold to
7) where they are going to be sold
Making it more illegal will only make it more toxic and violent.
We all agree crystal meth is poison, the question is how to control it
without eroding our freedoms and making the problems worse.
The violence associated with the dealing of the drug comes not
from the drug but from the illegality of its sale or enforcement.
This country is long overdue in recognizing that the war on drugs
is a war on ourselves. We have squandered billions of dollars and
too many of our children's lives addressing a medical and societal
problem using criminal law.
If you really want to protect your child look at the government
policy called drug prohibition and its creation, the black market.
Regulation is still enforcement, it is just "enforcement-lite."
The question is not, "Will it harm the individual? but, "Will letting
the black market make the decisions of distribution and purity
help reduce the negative effects to society and the individual?"
Just because a drug is toxic is no reason to ban it. We don't ban
gasoline or glue. These are both abused, addictive and do brain damage.
A domestic ban on the ingredients (for crystal meth) will only
force people to import them at a higher price.
It is the duty of leadership to explain to the public the truths about
the true cost of choosing more drug prohibition. xxxxx city
council's greatest sin is to have stifled the public debate.
The solution I suggest is understanding that drug prohibition
creates social pollution. Ending drug prohibition means ending the
propaganda. This single action will play a decisive role, and have a
world-historic impact, on the present and future of world peace, the
environment and social justice.
