Moderator cut: copyright violation
As you all know, crack is a huge problem in America. And people will do just about anything to get crack. A picture says a thousand words. The hair, the general attitude displayed through his facial features. It is entirely possible that this guy could be a nazi, but I doubt it. What I think the issue is, is he is a crack user.
Which brings me up to my next point. Should we legalize drugs for the benefit of preventing things like this from happening? This guy obviously would not support a man who would kill him if he were still alive.

We should legalize drugs to rid ourselves of a whole smorgasbord of problems that criminalization has caused, most of them more serious than some goofball getting a swastika tattoo.
Sure, legalize drugs like the Netherlands, which has become a nation of spineless twerps which have caved to the demands of Muslim immigrants to the point that they had to remove pigs from nursery rhymes in school and piggy banks being given out in banks. Oh, and let's see other stuff legal in the Netherlands- child pornography, hmm, yes why don't we just throw our hands up and cave in to everything that is detrimental to a healthy society. America needs to stay strong, laws make us strong, the lack of do not. Legal drug use will weaken us and place us in the weakened state that now is strangling several European nations with regard to the greatest threat toward Western Civilization-and that is Islamic Extremism. They want us weak. The only problem we have with drugs being illegal is that we do not execute pushers and distributors. Once this were to be done, the drug problem would be cut in half within a year. The world will not progress without strong iron fisted laws!

Legalizing drugs would, in essence, mean that we are sanctioning the use of those harmful substances. Look at the issues caused by alcohoism ... alcohol is a legal substance but it has wrecked so many lives and torn apart so many families. You can bet that we would see more lives destroyed by drugs if we were to legalize them.

We found out the hard way that alcohol prohibition wrecked more lives than alcohol did. Same with drugs.
I don't believe there are a whole lot of people who want to do drugs now but are deterred by the illegality.

The lack of "strong laws" as you say will not make us weak. In fact, the abundance of "strong laws" will make us weak because we will go bankrupt in the process of trying to fund all of these so called "strong laws." I don't see how you can connect child pornography with the use of drugs. One is an nonconsensual activity involving a minor and the other is a consensual activity.
Do you really think that executing everyone who pushed and dealt drugs would magically solve the problem? And who exactly would fund that? It just sounds to me as if your spewing ideals and have no logical means of putting such an asinine plan into action. Really, you're gonna have to do better than that.

As a teenager, I had a weak moment where I briefly thought about experimenting with drugs but was deterred by the illegal status of them. So yes, I definately think that the illegal status of drugs deters many from using.

Well, I can respect your point of view, although I don't think it's too common. Where I grew up there were stoners who did drugs and preppies who didn't, and never the twain shall meet. So that's the basis of my view.
(Marijuana, though, is in a separate category from other drugs. It should be legal, not on the basis of a "harm reduction" strategy but because it does practically no harm at all. Compared to alcohol, it's kid stuff. We should also put an end to the insane practice of requiring bundling drugs like codeine with acetaminophen to discourage abuse. Talk about burning down the bran to get the rats. "Sorry we ****ed up your liver, we couldn't risk letting you get high" (!) )

I am a recovering alcoholic and drug user, and I would legalize anything that any adult wishes to use, on demand.
