It is not plastic bags that use drugs! It is people that use drugs!
Posted by: Wayne in Justice, Up is DownHat tip: Jeff Wartman his post Chicago Wants to Ban Little Plastic Baggies
Politicians from both parties continue to take away choices, liberty, from the American people. Granted people don’t always make the best choices. I, however, am of the belief that most free people make OK, if not mostly good choices. This thought is the great American experiment: Let the common man make his choice and benefit or suffer the results. Dictator ships take his choice away and give it to one man.
There has throughout history been all types of Governments that have been tried. How successful those Governments have been is a matter of history: None have been as successful as the great American experiment.
Yes taking little plastic bags away from people who will use drugs will stop them from putting the drugs in little plastic bags. It will also stop kids from putting sandwiches in little plastic bags … The kids will be forced to wrap their sandwiches in paper and the drug uses will be forced to change.
The plan in Chicago does nothing to address the actual problem; these people who made a bad choice are in a bad way, they are addicted to drugs, likely they need help to get off drugs … taking their baggies away will help nobody. It is an insult to thinking citizens of the USA. To is a waste of police time to prevent people from taking large plastic bags and making small ones. It is a joke, no worse …
