Since President Obama is repealing the sentences of many drug offenders, I thought it'd be a good idea to discuss the War On Drugs.
What are your overall thoughts on it and do you think it should stop or continue?
I despise the War On Drugs and and don't support it at all. Mainly because it's getting ridiculous that drug offenders are serving more time in prison than murderers or rapists. That's just flat-out wrong. If a person commits a crime like murder because of drugs, then yes they deserve a harsh prison sentence just to clarify something.
I think it's better to just put drug addicts in rehab instead of putting them in prison and wasting tax dollars. Help them get back into society and get their lives back on track so prison doesn't become a revolving door for them. After all, some people do deserve second chances.
