I can definitely agree on this. The Alabang boys are like a pot of gold. Somebody did not get his share and so the squabling to air dirty laundry.

Government solution – put in place the Butcher (Palparan). LOL.

Not bad as he is an expert in extrajudicial means.

The Duterte Solution of letting vigilantes run amuck seems a better solution, instead of a shame campaign. Look what happened when Lim tried the shame campaign. Might as well have men in black motorcycles shoot down lawless elements. Compared to Manila, Davao is in many ways, less effective in the war for drugs.

(I acknowledge they weren’t failures… The succeeded in keeping Gloria the Tall story maker in the post, ridding the country of opposition.)

‘Somehow, the church and the evangelicals and the parent-teachers-associations will get involved, too, so I would not be surprised that confusion and “…for the greater good” will continue to happen’

Heaven help us if they join the fun.

Somehow, the church and the evangelicals and the parent-teachers-associations will get involved, too, so I would not be surprised that confusion and “…for the greater good” will continue to happen.

Proliferation of drugs will definitely increase usage but at least you know who are the users. I don’t think parents will encourage there kids to use drugs. Shame will probably kick in if everyone knows that your kid is a drug user.

Let drug lords bring in there stuff from anywhere in the world. The law of supply and demand will determine the price..

I’m not saying there will be no law. The drug pusher will still need a license and the drug user can only consume the drugs in the drug pusher’s place. Again, shame might kick in.

But let’s talk about it for discussion purposes.

Legalization will increase supply and will decrease the price. Availability is a leading factor to increase drug use. Increase use of addictive drug will lead to increase addiction.

Legalizing drugs will not eliminate illegal drug trafficking nor the violence associated with the illegal drug trade. An underground economy would still exist unless all addictive drugs in all strengths were made available to all ages in unlimited quantity.

Rule of Law: Strong drug laws will refrain people from using drugs. Surveys show that the fear of people getting in trouble with the law constitutes a major reason not to use drugs. Our rule of law is weak. It releases drug pushers from jail and prosecutors can be bought.

Import and Export: Strong domestic law will discourage foreign drug lords from penetrating. Is our port strong? Are employees in our port honest and understand the consequences or majority can be bought.
