You Don’t End the War on Drugs by Legalizing Cannabis, You End it by Nullifying the CSA

Why is this an important distinction to make? Simply put, if we can say that legalizing cannabis is ending the war on drugs, then we’re simply lying to ourselves. Cocaine would still be illegal, so would heroin, LSD, Mescaline, you name it – whatever pharma isn’t peddling would be illegal. This would still create a large black market that would still require law enforcement to “combat it” in….wait for it…you guessed it….THE WAR ON DRUGS!
