Yep. And if you can imagine that the so-called, "War on Drugs," over the last 18 years has made heroin much cheaper and much more readily available than marijuana, then you finally understand why our young people have such a severe problem with heroin. It's cheap, it's everywhere, and it's available, and our so-called drug education programs lump marijuana and heroin into practically the same category.

While sometimes we mean to do good, it can definitely backfire. Decriminalize, regulate, tax, and reform!
