It is the stupidest thing anybody has ever done. Why you ask? the UN's convention on narcotics of course! Kike's gotta get their black market profits after all....sorry for formatting niggers, I'm too lazy to fix it up so if it's total aids to read then you can find the original source here which you absolutely should read before calling for the legalization of drugs over their actual decriminalization, ie. removing all laws and not just fining druggies and stealing their stash:
